Artist Point was the first of a few signature restaurants we tried this trip. It is one of the less well known ones – certainly much less shouted about than the likes of Jiko or California Grill. It was our first experience of Artist Point and the first time we’d been to Wilderness Lodge, where [...]
Animation Academy – Take 2!
I’ve written about the Animation Academy at Disney’s Hollywood Studios before. But, it being one of my favourite attractions, you’ll have to indulge me a second time – mainly because I want the chance to show off our latest drawings, but I also took some pics that I wanted to share.

It serves Asian cuisine and is, in our [...]

Question: I want to go to Typhoon Lagoon on my on the 2nd day of arriving in Florida. Can I collect my Disney tickets from here? Answer: It really depends what type of ticket you’ve got and where you bought it from, but the short answer is probably not because you can’t pick up park [...]

Columbia Harbour House
Columbia Harbour House is a quick service restaurant located in Liberty Square in Magic Kingdom, just around the corner from the Hall of Presidents. I actually think this is one that is really easy to miss – we certainly did. The first few visits we just wandered right on past – I can’t remember if [...]
Q&A: Candlelight Processional
Question: I want to book the candlelight processional dinner package for 5, but not sure how to do this. I don’t think you can do it on-line and not sure if there is a number we can phone from the uk. We are staying at the WDW Dolphin just outside of Epcot, and as it’s [...]
Star Wars and Star Tours
May this year saw the grand re-opening of Star Tours. Any new ride or re-vamp results in excitement in the Disney community, but make it the focus of the yearly Star Wars Weekends and bring in George Lucas to launch it and you’ve got people salivating at the prospect. The fact that it is Star [...]
