For many years my daughter has been going to Disney World. She loves getting, and buying Disney toys. Each year that she went she used to purchased Mr Potato Head items. She has a rather large collection of them now. She also got a Magic Kingdom Playset when she was much younger. I thought the [...]

JMarsden92 — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 02:52:58 +0000

Today the wife has hit me with the thoughts of walking some of the trails in Disney World while we are there in late March / early April. I asked her if she had a lapse of thoughts because the amount of walking that we do in the parks is enough to make me weak [...]

I just read a small notice on a few websites that I visit from time to time, and it appears that there may be a “Domestic Park Pass” offered by Disney. This pass will be good for unlimited admission at either the Walt Disney World Resort, or DisneyLand Resort. The pass will possibly include admission [...]

Interesting Disney Family Site

JMarsden92 — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 03:37:16 +0000

We were looking through the internet for sites that might have information that would help us with parenting, and things like that when we found a Disney site called Disney Family Parenting. They have a lot of information about almost anything like bones, etiquette, prenatal vitamins, organs, tattoos, and much more.

I wish we [...]

JMarsden92 — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 02:54:23 +0000

Whenever we go to Disney World I make it a point to take my wife, and daughter to the Disney Outlets that are in Orlando. They usually have some really good deals, and we usually spend a good amount of money there. Why they haven’t put a Disney Outlet in this part of [...]

Security, Ignorance, Or What?

JMarsden92 — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 05:51:50 +0000

I was listening to a local radio station today, and heard about a family that was subject to what I would say was “The worst, and most insensitive handling of a situation.” A family was taking a vacation to Walt Disney World. The son of 4 years old has enough challenges due to being born [...]

JMarsden92 — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 05:03:38 +0000

Can you imagine getting to Disney just a few hours earlier than normal? Well, if everything gets the final kick then that dream may become a reality. While it won’t be something you can do from anywhere else, you will at least be able to cut out some of that drive if you choose. After [...]

Downtown Disney Without McDonalds?

JMarsden92 — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 04:39:48 +0000

I just read an article in the Orlando Sentinel that Disney will be removing McDonalds from Downtown Disney later this year. I know that they had removed the McDonalds items from the stands, and locations throughout the park, but this is a bold move by Disney in my eyes. McDonalds has always been [...]
