I mean it: I have collected, to my knowledge, some form of every Walt Disney World resort’s background music loop in this post. You may not always notice it, but background music is at integral part of the WDW experience, even outside the parks. And in the modern age, more and more people are going out and capturing that...
Continue readingPop Century Stole My Hair Towel & Other Lost Stuff
Question for you frequent WDW visitors: how much of your lost stuff do you think Disney has collected over the years? I ask because back in January, Pop Century Mousekeeping STOLE my hair towel!!!! JK, I’m confident it was an honest mistake. Housekeeping is stretched really thin right now with understaffing issues, and they’re working quickly. My hair towel...

And now for my favorite kind of post – the trip report! I’ll be covering my 2020 Marathon trip. You can read all the posts in this report here. Onward! The bus line post-half marathon was long, but lucky Pop’s popularity was anticipated and many buses awaited us; we were on one and back in our room in no time...

Am I the best person to review The Mara? I’ll just come out and say it: I’ve had zebra domes and I think they’re… fine. Mind you, that was almost a decade ago now; maybe my tastebuds misremember. But all I can recall about my zebra dome experience is that it was tasty enough but underwhelming after all the...

I freakin’ loved my deluxe resort experience. The amenities and rich themeing of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge & Kidani Village were unparalleled, especially as compared to moderate and value resorts. But there is one area where I personally believe VALUE resorts reign, and that’s the food court. With that said, let’s talk about The Mara, Animal Kingdom Lodge’s quick...

Continuing my trip report for my January 2019 WDW trip. See all the posts in this report here. Onward! Once again I did something for the very first time at Walt Disney World: I got a real massage! (Another thing I did for the first time in WDW is a tequila shot but that’s a different story.) Although the point...

Continuing my trip report for my January 2019 WDW trip. See all the posts in this report here. Onward! Oh, but I was stiff after the marathon! I did make a quick lap around the merch tent in the finisher’s area, but that was about as far as it went. I hopped aboard a bus to Animal Kingdom Lodge, got...

Which means that I can now tell you, with no fear of repercussions whatsoever, about my newest WDW background music obsession. Okay. We know Christmas at WDW is, like everything that happens there, pretty magical. The special holiday background loops are part...

I know Wine & Dine Half weekend is coming up first, but I can’t help but peek ahead just a bit to my next WDW trip – the one in January for the Walt Disney World Marathon. Despite not planning on any park time, I’m super excited to stay at Kidani Village. Only deluxe accommodations for me this time around! Outside the...

I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking, say! Jenn hasn’t mentioned anything about what Disney background music she’s been listening to lately. It’s cool. I saw you coming. Here’s how I’ve been easing the pangs of WDW homesickness: You saw my news about staying at Kidani Village, right? When you stay at a new resort, it’s important to prepare yourself....
