Explore Disney's Boardwalk Area

One of the things I really like about any Disney World vacation is the ability to escape the parks and go to other themed areas full of new adventures! I love spending time at Disney’s Boardwalk when I want some slower-paced downtime. Best of all, it is in close proximity to both Disney's Hollywood Studios and Epcot. Here are some on my favorite things to do at Disney's Boardwalk:

What To Pack Before You Go to Iceland

I just got back from an amazing week touring Iceland. I could tell you about all of the amazing things I did (climbing a glacier!) and saw (puffins flying everywhere), but I think it’s more important to be prepared. This is a country unlike any other and while you can expect to keep things pretty low maintenance, packing what you need is critical to really enjoy your time.

Magic Band, Or No Magic Band?

Haleakala at Sunrise

Legend says that to help his mother, the demi-god Maui climbed more than 10,000 feet to the summit and waited while the sun slept in the giant crater of Haleakala. When the sun awoke, and the first rays of sunshine began to appear, Maui caught the sun with his coconut-fiber lasso and demanded that the sun move more slowly across the sky to make the days longer. Left with no other options, the sun and Maui struck a deal- 6 months of the year the sun would move at the speed he liked, and the other 6 months he would move slowly to appease Maui. Pleased with the arrangement, Maui released the sun to continue its journey across the sky.
