A Perfect Day Off at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort If you’ve ever visited Walt Disney World in Florida, you know it can be a lot of fun, but it can also be a VERY tiring vacation! A typical day in the parks probably begins with a 6:30 am wake-up call, and ends with bedtime around midnight, with about 7-10 miles of walking in between! By the third or fourth day, the whole family can start feeling a bit (understandably) crabby, but I have a solution. Add a day to your hotel stay, but don’t add a day to your park [...]

So do you pull your children out of school to travel or stick to the school holidays? Here are a few things to consider: School Attendance Policies First and foremost, check into your [...]

Venture out to the magnificent Disney resorts for a dinner to remember! One of our favorites (and one we frequent because we love it so much!) is Citricos, located at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa. The renovated dining room pays homage to the delightful merriment of Mary Poppins Returns, and the menu features unique Florida cuisine with a Mediterranean influence, crafted by Chef Andres Mendoza! We definitely suggest the Butter Poached Florida Cobia with Apple Rose for dessert! But don't forget to order Wine! The award-winning wine list includes a host of amazing wines to add to your first-class experience. Citricos [...]
