Three Must See 3-D Attractions!


We all know that Walt Disney World offers a wide variety of entertainment, from thrill rides and onstage performances, to 3-D attractions.  You will never be bored on Disney property!  While most 3-D movies at your hometown theaters can be impressive or leave you wanting more, Disney’s offerings of 3-D isn’t just a visual experience!

Narrowing it down to just three must see 3-D attractions is hard for me.  I’m always amazed at what Disney brings next and while 3-D has been around for a long time, there is always something new to make you jump out of your seat cheering for more.  So what are my personal three must see 3-D attractions?

3.   It’s Tough to be a Bug - Located in the Tree of Life in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, It’s Tough to be a Bug is full of spiders, beetles, butterflies and many other creepy-crawlies.  No, not the real ones!  Put on your Bug-Eye glasses and join Flick as he hosts the show.  The audience members are now “honorary bugs” and get treated to meeting some of Flick’s friends.  During this 8-minute show, sit back in your seats and relax while you will have some close encounters with hornets, stinkbugs and even Grasshopper from Disney Pixar’s movie A Bug’s Life.  Be prepared for the special effects that include feel and smell.  They may be surprising, but loads of fun!





2.  Toy Story Mania – Head over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and down to Pixar Place to find this gem. Grab your 3-D glasses, board your 4-person ride vehicle and let the games begin!  Toy Story characters will host different games that are fun for the entire family!  Think your ride and games are done after that first scene?  Nope! You will then enjoy several more games by going around a track to various scenes.  From throwing pies and rings to bursting balloons and throwing eggs, keep racking up those points!  Can you make it to the day’s leader board?

1.  Mickey’s Philharmagic – Our last stop takes us to Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom.  Take a seat and put on your Opera glasses and be prepared to be entertained!  Donald Duck is told not to touch Mickey Mouse’s Sorcerer’s hat, but we all know that little guy doesn’t listen!  So, he is taken on a whirlwind trip as he is transported into some of the most classic Disney movie scenes!  He visits Ariel, Peter Pan, Aladdin and Simba just to name a few!  As he is entertained by Lumiere, you can smell the pie.  While visiting a scene in Fantasia, you are sprinkled with water.  The scene in Neverland and Agrabah make you feel like you are soaring through the skies as you stare at one of the largest seamless screens in the world!  These are the things that set this attraction apart from the others.  Disney classics, new graphics and the special effects that this show brings, have me not only putting it at the top of this list, but the top of my favorites list in general!
So, next time you visit the Mouse’s house, be sure to take part in each of these attractions.  I assure you, you will not be disappointed!
Is there a 3-D attraction that you cannot miss each Disney vacation?  What is your absolute favorite?

Cruising with a Baby: A Complete Guide

You took a baby on a cruise!? Yep, and I'd do it again knowing what I know now. So, say goodbye to months of research - Everything you need to know is here!! One of the biggest challenges of traveling with a baby is planning what you need to bring. I wanted to share what worked for us, and hopefully help others who are planning their cruise! Remember, babies can only cruise after their 6-month birthday on sailings from the U.S. If you are going transatlantic, or have more than three days out at sea, they must be 12 months old by the first day of your cruise. Pre-Cruise   We flew to the cruise port, and I couldn’t bring all the food and snacks I needed, so I placed an Instacart order for pick up near the port. I chose Publix in Cocoa Beach which is a few miles from Port Canaveral. I placed the order a few days before we left home, and set the pickup time to 11:00 a.m. I ordered formula, a box of diapers, swim diapers, bottle brush, dish soap, baby food, and baby snacks. I also broug

Complete Guide to Disney's Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point

Disney's new Bahamian island destination, Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point is a pristine, secluded paradise reserved exclusively for Disney Cruise Line guests. The cruise port is located on the island of Eleuthera (pronounced uh-loo-tr-uh) at it's southern tip, amidst a nature preserve called Lighthouse Point. Far from any towns, Lookout Cay feels like a tropical oasis that is separated from the outside world by mangrove forests. The landscaping is gorgeous with flowers like plumerias, and tall swaying palm trees. Whether you want to just kick back and relax or go for a thrilling banana boat ride, this port has something for everyone. There are family friendly areas as well as those reserved specifically for adults. Expert Tip: If you want a view of the island from your stateroom, be sure to book a starboard (right) side stateroom. Disney Magic docked at Lookout Cay After disembarking your Disney Cruise ship, you'll cross the pier to the island on foot. (It looks longer in

The Villas at the Disneyland Hotel Review

I love staying at the Disneyland Hotel so when I got the opportunity to stay at the new Villas at the Disneyland Hotel during opening weekend, I couldn’t pass it up. Because it was opening weekend, we were greeted in the entrance way of the lobby with balloons and many photo opportunities. When we arrived, there was a mural of the Haunted Mansion. I love how the seats in the main lobby were designed like the teacups in the parks. You can check in using the Disneyland app, drop your bags with bell services and head into the parks or use the amenities why you wait until your room is ready. When your room is ready, the resort will send you a text and you can use the Disneyland app on your mobile device to unlock the room. We dropped off our bags and went straight to the parks. We received a text around 1PM that our room was ready. In the new Discovery Tower (the Villas), you'll find that the lobby is very spacious with many places to sit while you read or wait for your family. Th
