Polish off your meal with bread and butter pudding or the chocolate-upon-chocolate Dunbrody Kiss! To book a Disney vacation, contact me at erica@blueskyjourneys.net

New plan in the works for the former Hyperion Wharf

The Downtown Disney/Pleasure Island area might be lacking, but at least we now know Disney’s well aware of the situation.

A talk with the owner of Splitsville – coming soon to DTD

I had a chance to talk with Splitsville co-owner Mark Revelle this morning to get some info about the new, upcoming Downtown Disney bowling venue. It looks like it’s going to be great fun, but I had two burning questions I had to get off my chest. Watch until the end to see if Splitsville [...]
