As a frequent visitor of Walt Disney World in Florida, I found myself very overwhelmed when it was time to plan my family’s very first Disneyland trip. What do we see first?

Here are some tips to help you plan your very first trip to Disneyland in California. The best advice I read before my first trip: don’t compare Disneyland to [...]

travelmagicstg2023-10-06T22:07:57-04:00October 12, 2017|Disney Travel|0 Comments

This past summer, the Minnie Vans were introduced as a new transportation option at the Walt Disney World Resort! These cute vans were added as a part of the Lyft app, and will take you anywhere you want to go on Disney property. As of October 2017, they are fully operational from all deluxe resorts on Disney property. On my last vacation to Disney World, I had the opportunity to try this service out a couple of times and I can assure you – not only was it fun, but it was SO convenient! After a night at the Boardwalk [...]

travelmagicstg2023-10-06T22:02:41-04:00October 10, 2017|Travel Destinations|0 Comments

When traveling on an Alaskan Cruise, one of the most popular seaports is Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada. If you’ve booked an Alaskan Sailing, you’ll need to decide if you’d like to spend some time in this port city either before or after your cruise. Recently, we had this decision to make and chose to spend an extra day prior to boarding the Disney Wonder for Alaska. We found Vancouver to be a delightful city with so much to do and see! The city really does offer the best of an urban experience with the great outdoors. With the [...]

Beyond Disneyland

travelmagicstg2023-10-06T22:01:12-04:00October 5, 2017|Disneyland|0 Comments

One of my favorite topics about Disney is what to do outside of Disney! Because there is so much more to do in Orlando or Anaheim that just come to the parks and leave! This time, our Disney adventure took us into the areas around Los Angeles! Our first side trip was the Orange County Beach Bus Tour! The OC Beach Bus Tour is a tour is provided by Anaheim Tour Company and is an excursion that you can add on to your Disneyland Package. Your Travel With The Magic Specialist can do this for you!

Minnie’s Halloween Dine at Hollywood and Vine

travelmagicstg2017-10-03T06:00:30-04:00October 3, 2017|Hollywood Studios|0 Comments

During the fall months at Disney’s Hollywood and Vine restaurant, you can attend a special dinner called Minnie’s Halloween Dine, at Hollywood Studios. This dinner is special not only because you get to see five of the most popular Disney characters, but because they are dressed up in adorable Halloween costumes. It’s a great way to get you in the Halloween mood! Also, the food has a Halloween “twist” to it as well. Take a look: The food was excellent, and I would say possibly the best character buffet food I have had at Walt Disney World. Some of the [...]

The Characters of Cape May Café Breakfast Buffet

travelmagicstg2023-10-05T17:43:19-04:00September 26, 2017|Dining|0 Comments

Cape May Breakfast buffet is located at Disney’s Beach Club resort. It has a fun, sunny atmosphere and is easy to get to right off the lobby. The restaurant is surrounded by colorful beach umbrellas, and you may even see some sandcastles. The food is delicious with a super fun waffle station with toppings, omelets, fruit, and the best cheese grits I’ve had on property. However, the stars of the show are the characters you will get to see at your table while dining. When we visited recently, we were told by our server who we would see, and [...]
