People associate many things with Disney Parks – Fireworks, Mickey Mouse, castles, Dole Whip, and happiness are words and phrases that come to mind. Waiting in line is another phrase that’s unfortunately associated with Disney. Now, I’m not here to convince you that waiting in line isn’t bad. […]
Last summer, Melissa and I (along with our sister-in-law, Amie) decided to register for Walt Disney World’s Princess Half Marathon. Naturally, we planned a trip for the whole week surrounding the marathon. You know, in the name of research for this award-winning (still waiting on a trophy or […]
Attractions and shows are the centerpiece of theme parks. Classic attractions have transcended time along with new state-of-the-art attractions popping up across the globe, making Disney (and other) Parks continuously inviting to visitors. Unfortunately, they can’t all be winners. Some shows and attractions start out on the right […]

2018 was an incredible year of traveling for Melissa and I including our first visit to Tokyo Disney Resort as well as Walt Disney World. I grew as a photographer over the year and have become far more comfortable behind the camera. In this post I’m going to […]
A funny thing happens when people figure out that you go to Walt Disney World so often. They end up wanting to go, as well. Before long you have two trips in the span of 8 months lined up, both of which with family. That’s what led to […]
Walt Disney World is full of entertainment. From the obvious rides to an ever-expanding dining scene, there is no shortage of things to do throughout the resort. Perhaps the most universal form of entertainment in WDW comes in the form of shows. Between Disney World’s four theme parks there […]
