Weird Activities and Awkward Encounters at home and abroad
Yet again this year over Memorial Day weekend Disney World’s Magic Kingdom as well as DIsneyland Resort hosted the “Rock Your Disney Side” 24 hour event and really tried to make #disneyside happen. Of course, they made it happen, it just didn’t make a lot of sense to me, but if they can make Frozen…
Wanderlust sets in pretty quickly after I return home from a trip. Unfortunately, Africa cleaned me out financially for a bit, not to mention the fact that it’s recital season and my directors would be none too happy about me leaving until after the mid-June show. Knowing I’m stuck here, even if it is just…
Cruises out of Florida are incredibly convenient if you live here. Really, it’s the cheapest way to travel. Where else do you get transportation, lodging, and food (lots and lots of food!) for around $100 a night (sometimes less)? So naturally, those of us that live near a port cruise as often as possible and…
I know, another Disney Cruise post! I can’t help it. I leave in 3 days and it’s literally all I can think about. So, as I was sitting in my living room trying to figure out what to pack, it occurred to me that a lot of these things were things I wouldn’t necessarily have…
In just over a week I’ll be leaving on my annual Disney Cruise! I’m very much looking forward to it and thought this would be a great time to revisit last year’s cruise with some tips and tricks to help make the most of your time at sea. One of the big perks of being…
I was lucky enough this past Saturday to have happened upon the soft opening (grossest possible term for “test run”) for the highly anticipated Spice Road Table, a Mediterranean Small Plate Restaurant in Morocco at Epcot. We started off with Pomegranate Mimosa, made with champagne, orange and pomegranate liquors. The lakeside patio dining was delightful…
Ok, so this one technically isn’t travel, but it did take me from college in Charleston, SC to my current life in Orlando, FL. It also introduced me to people from all over the world and indirectly afforded me many travel opportunities, so I’m counting it. My cousin just started the Walt Disney World College…
It’s that time of year again! Everyone loves the holidays, and if you live near Disney World the holidays last from the day after Halloween through the first week or so of the new year! This is the 6th holiday season I’ve spent in Disney World, but this year is different. This year in Epcot’s…
I have been attending the Food and Wine Festival for years now, but have never done any of their special events. This year I changed that and attended the Mexican Tequila Lunch at La Hacienda de San Angel. This is an informative and tasty lunch that takes place at noon every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday…
Now that I’ve eaten and drank my way through every stop at the Food and Wine Festival, I’ve compiled a list of my favorites. Mind you, I’ve enjoyed something from each booth, but have not tried everything. So, if one of your favorites is missing from the list below let me know! DRINKS! Best Red…
