Cinderella’s Royal Table – Dinner Review
Cinderella’s Royal Table is a character dining experience located in Cinderella’s Castle in the Magic Kingdom.

Saratoga Springs Resort: 7 Reasons to Stay
1. Proximity to Disney Springs Disney Springs is often overlooked on a trip to Disney World unfortunately. I made that mistake one of my first trips back to Disney. There is so much to do between restaurants, bars, shopping, and activities. Not to mention Cirque de Soleil will be returning in 2020! The ability to get to Disney Springs quickly and easily is a giant perk, especially for adults traveling without children. While you could technically walk to Disney Springs from any area, Congress Park is really the only section of Saratoga Springs that you can do so quickly. Also note, when I say technically I mean you could walk…
