The time-honored question of Disney’s Animal Kingdom; is it a half-day park or isn’t it? I know I’ve been caught leaning both ways when considering if it was a half day park or a full day park. Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde I’ve been going back and forth trying to decide. Continue reading and [...]
runDisney is at it again. For those runners who often thought Marathon Weekend’s Goofy and a Half Challenge was crazy (running the half marathon on Saturday and full marathon on Sunday) we’ve now hit insanity.

For years, Disney park guests have sported Vera’s totes, backpacks, wristlets, luggage, and duffles during their vacations. The combination of the patterns’ bright colors and the versatility of the bags’ designs have [...]
