Classic. While the original was placed in Disneyland in 1993, the statue was recreated for Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom and installed in June of 1995. Three other statues would be placed at other Disney parks: Tokyo Disneyland, Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, California, and Disneyland Paris.
One day, four parks, Disney style
I have been a WDW annual pass holder for years. Recently, I wanted to check out Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, looking for a specific t-shirt I had seen earlier. Since I was really only there for the shopping, I decided to turn it into a personal challenge. I decided to visit all four parks... Continue Reading →
Disney x BaubleBar: Belle
Stunning statement Belle earrings that I have had since 2021. This collab between Disney and BaubleBar will have you truly feeling like a princess. These gorgeous earrings show stunning detail of Belle’s infamous yellow ball gown, so there is no mistaking which princess this is.
Welcome home (to WDW)
Is there anything better than walking into the Magic Kingdom and being greeted first thing by Mickey & Minnie? I can think of few things better to kick start a day at the most magical place on earth. This photo was taken in February, 2022, during the 18 month celebration of Walt Disney World’s 50th... Continue Reading →
WDW Essential: Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
A must for every time I visit a WDW park is a Minute Maid Frozen Strawberry Lemonade. These are such a refreshing treat, especially on hot days (of which there are many). The trick is, finding the strawberry flavor. All of the refreshment kiosks/carts in the parks offer the lemonade flavor, but only a select... Continue Reading →
Epcot 2025 Flower & Garden Festival: Moana & Friends
Every year for Epcot’s Flower & Garden Festival, the front entrance features one of many topiary displays that guests will see throughout the park. This year, the front feature was Moana, along with friends Maui, Pua, and Hei Hei. Coincindentally, Journey of Water, a walkthrough attraction in Epcot that opened in October of 2023, was...

WDW Mickey Balloon Spirit Jersey
Even as a Walt Disney World annual passholder for a few years, this was my very first Spirit Jersey purchase. Living in Florida, I MAY have 3 tops in my closet that are long sleeved, and MAY wear them once a year. As super cool as all of the spirit jerseys are, they are just... Continue Reading →
My 1st WDW popcorn bucket
Although I have purchased a few popcorn buckets at Walt Disney World since this one, this one was my first. You always remember your first, right? ;p I purchased this Mickey popcorn bucket at Animal Kingdom during the 50th anniversary celebration. I purchased him early on in the day, and did not want to carry... Continue Reading →
Disney Things
This was a haul from a few years back, from Disney Springs, I believe. The Christmas Loungefly was a steal, as it was on sale and my AP (annual passholder) discount also applied. The 50th anniversary magnet is proudly displayed on my refrigerator. I use the red mouse balloon spoon rest in my office for... Continue Reading →
Animal Kingdom: Dinosaur
The Dinosaur ride at Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom takes visitors on a jeep ride through the Cretaceous period, and features wonderful animatronic dinosaurs for….viewing. 🙂 You are on a mission to bring a dinosaur back with you (illegally, of course), so this is not a leisurely wildlife viewing trip (are dinosaurs considered wildlife?). This... Continue Reading →
