Are you look for a way to upgrade your nighttime fun at Disney's Hollywood Studios? Why not indulge in a cosmic diversion at the "Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular" Dessert Party. The ambiance of the night is pure Star Wars when you enjoy an out-of-this-world buffet of selection of Star Wars-themed desserts, specialty drinks and an assortment of charcuterie and cheeses. Then enjoy reserved seating for a nighttime spectacular.

Yesterday Disney announced even more exciting news about the updates planed for Epcot, including new green space at the entrance and an entirely new pavilion to take over in the old Wonders of Life pavilion. Do I have your attention? Here's what we know so far about the exciting new restaurants, attractions, and improvements coming to Walt Disney World's Epcot Theme Park!

It's vacation time; you've said good-bye to the daily grind, and hello to some rest and relaxation! Relax at Disney? Is that even possible? Most families I know come home telling me that they need a vacation from their vacation. Walt Disney World is packed with more great adventures than should ever be crammed into one trip. None the less, people try. I like to say that I'm an advocate for a kinder, gentler, Disney vacation. One where magical dreams are aided in part by snuggling into plush beds for a good night's sleep.

Nestled amongst the dignified buildings and tasteful greenery of Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa guests will find the relaxed retreat of the Courtyard Bar. Situated beside the Courtyard Pool, this hideaway sits beneath a pretty lattice roof with turned white pillars and dainty gingerbread details. A ping-pong table and 2 TVs provide added entertainment for guests not looking for a swim.

Chef Art Smith's Homecomin' Florida Kitchen & Shine Bar is one of my favorite spots to eat at Disney Springs these days. It's fair to say I'm pretty in love with the lunch/dinner menu, so on my last trip I made sure to stop by for some elevated country cooking at Chef Art's Rise & Shine Southern Brunch.

The state-of-the-art gondola system Disney Skyliner has been making its first test runs over the past week. The system will conveniently connect Disney's Hollywood Studios and Epcot to four resort hotels- Disney's Art of Animation Resort, Disney's Pop Century Resort and Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort as well as the proposed 15th Disney Vacation Club property, Disney's Riviera Resort.

Time is getting short until the start of the Epcot's 2019 Flower and Garden Festival! The full menus are out and it looks like once again guests at Epcot will have access to some of the most creative and delicious things imaginable coming out of the garden. This year a total of 17 Outdoor Kitchens will join several permanent locations, each one showcasing the freshest flavors of the season.

One of my favorite vacation activities has always been shopping. No matter where I go, I am always looking for trinkets to bring home from my travels. As many times as I have been to Walt Disney World, I still come home with pretty new things to keep my memories bright. With new areas opening all the time, I was excited on my last trip to visit some brand new gift shops. I started out at Windtraders, the main gift shop in Pandora: The World of Avatar at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Looking for someplace fun and festive to spend your St. Patrick's Day while in Walt Disney World? Take our advise and head on over to Raglan Road Irish Pub for the Mighty St. Patrick's Day Festival. This rolicking 3-day event only happens once a year, and will immerse guests in all things Irish. The enormous party full of authentic Irish fun kicks off at 3:00pm Friday, March 15th, 2019 and runs thru to Sunday, March 17th, 2019.

I love old fashioned correspondence, for me there's nothing quite like sitting down at breakfast to compose some charming postcards to my friends and family. It's so much better than just checking in on facebook. Every now and then, I like to send my loved ones something truly unique from my travels. Something like a coconut.
