There are many things you can learn about each pavilion before you start drinking, but what else do you need to know? Here are some tips you should know before you drink around the world. Pack a water bottle I say this in almost any Disney post, that you should bring an empty water bottle in the parks, but this is especially important if you plan to drink around the world. It is 11 countries (or 12 if you are including the African outpost) which means 11 drinks,…

5 Things I Did Right On My Last Disney Trip
We planned breaks It may be tempting to try and squeeze as much as you can into a Disney trip, but it will backfire very quickly. In an effort to make sure I didn’t overload our trip and terrify my boyfriend out of Disney forever, I added in breaks to our schedule. I would purposely start in one park and end in another. This provided us with the opportunity to decide if we were tired to go back and lay down or if we wanted to stroll a bit longer around the parks. We used our snack credits wisely There is so much debate behind if you should or should…

The Best Disney Planning Advice I Have Ever Gotten
When you first tell people you are planning a trip to Walt Disney World you suddenly unleash this predisposed need for people to tell you exactly how to plan your trip. They can’t help it. They have been before and clearly have learned all there is to know and whatever your original plan is you are doing it wrong. This is just insane. Disney itself is constantly changing and evolving between the construction of new projects, renovations of classic attractions, new policies, and so much more, it is impossible to have a grasp on everything the mouse offers.

Best Happy Hour in New Orleans
New Orleans is one of my favorite places to visit. The energy that the town gives off just by walking down the street is something you cannot recreate. There are so many things to do in NOLA besides drinking on bourbon street, but let’s be honest, chances are if you are visiting the French Quarter, you plan on having a few cocktails. Before we left for vacation I began looking up things to do, where to eat, etc., the typical vacation research. Since we were going on somewhat of a budget I added an extra step – locate the best happy hour in New Orleans. I have shared this list…

What Is Always In My Disney Bag
Charger This should be a no-brainer for anyone who has a smartphone and is on vacation. We rarely travel without a backup charger in our bags. In Disney, with all of the things you need to use your My Disney Experience app for, and now with the release of the Disney Play app, your battery will not make it to the end of the day. We have the Portable Charger Anker PowerCore that we use for longer park days (the rope drop to fireworks type days). It is long lasting and powerful so that if you need to charge more than one phone you will have no issue. I also bring a…
