I can’t tell you about my first trip to Epcot because I don’t remember it; nor does any individual trip I’ve ever taken to Epcot stand out in my mind. What I remember about my pre-postgrad days at Epcot are: rides on Horizons and being able to choose your ending (I always went with space). Walking in, and always starting with Spaceship Earth; walking out, and finding our picture on the boulders. My rides on Body Wars, the best motion simulator Disney has made to date (in my opinion). Being lifted over the barrier around Mission Space by my Dad so that I could get a clear visual of the beautiful building façade. To me, Epcot has been a toe touch park; you plan when you’re going to leave before you even get in.
Disneyland is known as a locals park. I have heard estimates of around 1 million Annual Passholders for the Disneyland Resort. AP’s visit the park daily and the streets are crowded and lines are long. AP’s love the parades and fireworks. They line up with their blankets, board games, cards, and iPads to pass the time while the wait for hours on the curb. AP’s love to see openings or re-openings first or be the last ones to ride if the ride is closing. They will line up outside the gates early to be the first to see the new ride, show, or parade! Some Disneyland Facebook groups having running jokes on how crowded it will be. The real answer is: Disneyland is ALWAYS crowded! But, I have a few tips on how to beat those crowds and enjoy your day or your vacation at the Happiest Place on Earth.
More acts have been added to the line-up for the 2018 Eat to the Beat concert series at this year’s Epcot International Food and Wine Festival.
I have been going to Disney World ever since I was 10 days old. Seriously, my parents brought me to Magic Kingdom a week and a half after I was born. I lived through 17 Food and Wine Festivals, the relocation of the Dumbo ride, and even the dawn of MagicBands. I’ve seen countless moms scouring Pinterest, looking for tips on traveling the parks with their 4 year old in hand. However, traveling WDW with teenagers is a bit trickier. As a teenager myself, I know exactly how to take your trip to the next level with your family.
New to this year’s concert series will be percussionist extraordinaire and singer Sheila E and ‘80s Canadian rockers Glass Tiger. 98 Degrees – featuring brothers and “Dancing With the Stars” alums Nick and Drew Lachey – also bring their smooth harmonies to the festival. Maybe they’ll sing “True To Your Heart” from Disney’s “Mulan”? And, if that weren’t enough, entertainer Jim Belushi brings his rhythm-and-blues band The Sacred Hearts to the festival this year.
The lineup so far is:

Every disagreement starts simply enough. You state an opinion, someone else counters that opinion and you both offer up points until someone relents or both agree to disagree. But what happens when you’re in a group and EVERYONE disagrees with you…even when you’re right? Like when an argument arises that we use 10% of our brain and your group agrees? It’s easy enough to breakout your phone, go to Google and show them that 90% of our brain is NOT inactive.
