Introduction To Making The Madness Magical

Introduction to Making The Madness Magical

                Every Disney movie pretty much starts out the same way. You hear the magical sound of “When You Wish Upon a Star”, the chills go down your spine, you get that knot in the pit of your stomach (you know the one you get when you’re really excited about something and you feel like you could burst at any moment) and then you can just feel the magic in the air floating all around you and it’s AMAZING!!!! Well I hope this blog can give you that exact same feeling!

               Maybe I should introduce myself. Hi my names Terra!! I am a Disney addict, lover, connoisseur and not ashamed to say it or show it! I’ve been going to Walt Disney World since the ripe old age of five. My first trip to WDW was in the year 2000 and let me tell you I will never ever forget it. That first walk down Main Street U.S.A holding my mom’s hand while my dad was behind us taking pictures. Since then we have been back multiple times and even decided that DVC was a perfect fit for us since we are all Disney addicts and let me tell you what, it was the best decision we as a family have ever made!!

           What is the point of this blog you ask? Well let me tell you, the point of Making The Madness Magical is to help make the entire planning process easier! Like I said before I’ve been to Walt Disney World multiple times, it’s literally my second home, and I know it like the back of my hand. Not only am I here to help make the planning process easier, but I’m also going to help keep you all up-to-date on all the latest Disney World happenings and with all the recent announcements, updates and changes it sounds like our beloved second home will become a little unfamiliar to us all until we figure out the new lay of the land.

 See Ya Real Soon,

Magic Kingdom Fun Fact Friday

The Magic Kingdom is full of hidden gems and fun little secrets to discover. Through the day I will be posting and talking about all the different tidbits about the different lands in the Magic Kingdom. Now hopefully these will be fun facts that you don't/didn't know already, so lets get started!

Sushi Sunday!!

Everyone who goes to Disney multiple times always have certain things that they must absolutely do (a tradition If you will)! Whether it be getting their picture taken with a certain character, going to Downtown Disney (now Disney Springs) the first day they get there or eating at a certain restaurant every time they visit Walt Disney World. My family is no exception to this. One of my favorite family traditions that we do, is when my dad and I set a day and time during our vacation to have a father-daughter lunch date at Tokyo Dining in the Japan pavilion at EPCOT! The reason we pick this particular restaurant is because we love us some sushi and in our opinion they have some of the best sushi in all of Walt Disney World!! When we go we usually end up getting the Combination - Matsu and it comes with: 2 tuna, 2 salmon, 2 shrimp, yellow-tail, scallops, egg, eel with 2 pieces of Spicy Roll and 4 pieces of Rainbow Roll !! Trust me, it is mouth wateringly delicious, utterly amazing and worth checking out! I know for a fact that I always look forward to our father-daughter bonding time and it’s an added bonus that we get to have delectable sushi. So next time you want to try something new or you’re looking for a great place to get sushi go check out Tokyo Dining in the Japan pavilion in EPCOT, you won’t regret it!

Fantasyland Cinderella Castle Fun Fact

If you're and avid Disney fan, then you know what I mean when I use the term "Disney detail". Disney has always been known for their attention to detail, in both their movies and parks. Our next fun fact/ hidden gem, is in Cinderella Castle. If you know your Disney Imagineers and have a sharp eye then you’ve probably already found this one. In the mural scene inside the walkway in Cinderella’s Castle, where prince Charming has placed the glass slipper on Cinderella’s foot, you will find two Disney Imagineers. If you look to the far left of the mural, there is a man standing and that is John Hench, and then the man standing directly behind the prince is Herbert Ryman. Hench and Ryman, if you didn’t know, were the lead designers of Cinderella Castle.
