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 [...]

Katie and I just got back from another Daddy/Daughter trip to Walt Disney World. Before we left, she found one of my old journals where I chronicled some of our vacations. She told me she wanted to do the same thing on this trip, so she packed a journal and spent every night writing. When [...]

Well, there’s one more Disney trip in the books. Here are a few quick thoughts on my Dec. 5 trip… It was cold. It didn’t bother me a lot, but look at the photo above to see how everyone is dressed. Think I’m exaggerating? Heather Leigh Carroll over at the Disney Travel Examiner is reporting [...]

A few details are starting to shake out about Disney’s Hyperion Wharf announcement yesterday. Lou Mongello of WDW Radio appeared on My Fox Orlando this morning to talk Hyperion Wharf, and did a typically great job boiling it all down.

I’ll admit it right up front: I’m a Mousejunkie – I drink the Kool-aid. So it is completely without my journalist’s jaundiced eye I that I read over the planned changes to Pleasure Island/Downtown Disney today. My initial reaction – I love it, and I can’t wait.

Thursday night brought us to Raglan Road – my favorite restaurant in all of Walt Disney World. (Complete review to follow.) Toward the end of the meal, the part where Ger’s Bread and Butter Pudding traditionally makes its appearance, Amy asked me a question that had only one obvious answer: “Do you want to split [...]
