My Day Using Disney Genie+ at Magic Kingdom

Yesterday was the first day that the new Disney Genie+ service was available at Walt Disney World! If you need a refresher on what Disney Genie+ is, read this post FIRST. I have a certain way that I like to strategize my park days in order to tackle the MOST rides with the LEAST amount of time waiting in lines. I followed that overall strategy during my time at Magic Kingdom while testing out Disney Genie+ and now I’m going to recap my day with you! In future posts I will deep dive into park strategies utilizing Disney Genie+ at …

Magic Kingdom Trip Report | June 2021

The kids and I ventured to Magic Kingdom on Monday and enjoyed a nice morning at the park! Here’s a photo dump of our day as well as some observations and tips! We arrived at the park at 8:20am. Official park opening was 8:00am but we hit some traffic on the way. Always arrive before park opening time if you can! There was definitely a steady flow of people entering the park but still space to spread out if you wanted. I would say 90% of people do not wear a mask outdoors anymore now that the outdoor mask requirement …

Bay Lake Tower – One Bedroom Villa

We celebrated my 30th birthday with a little getaway at both the Animal Kingdom Lodge – Jambo House and Bay Lake Tower (we are DVC members and used our points to book our stay).

When we stay overnight for a birthday celebration or special occasion, it feels extra special for the kiddos! This was our first stay at Bay Lake Tower and it did not disappoint! The biggest benefit to staying in a room at Bay Lake Tower? The …

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party 2018 Recap

My preschooler and I ventured to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party last Friday and had such an amazing time! The party did not sell-out and I really think the lower crowd levels played into why we were able to do so much even though we left around 10pm! Let’s jump into the fun we had at the party! We arrived at Magic Kingdom around 1:30 pm. If you do not have a park ticket, you can arrive with just your party ticket as early as 4pm (or as early as 2pm if you’re a DVC member). Before the party began, we …
