So I just realized that I did not get this episode uploaded before I left for vacation! And it's a REALLY good one.

I have been to Disney World countless times. I feel pretty confident when I put together a Florida trip. The west coast, however is a whole different animal!

Fortunately I have a true expert in my arsenal. Stacey - The Disney Hotel Lady - has come to my rescue! Nobody knows Disneyland Hotels better than her! And this week she guides us through the maze of Anaheim resorts! Do we stay on property? Do we splurge on something fancy? Do we go kitschy and original? Or do we need something really close to the gates?

All these questions and more get answered as we plan our west coast adventure! So join Andrew, Stacey and I this week for some exciting Disney planning!!!

So if you don't know and follow Andrew Prince - You are truly missing out! His YouTube channel "Accessible Adventures with Andrew" is chock full of great videos about cruising and Disney, among other things, and gives you some great tips and ideas - whether you need different access or not! Andrew is one of the most fun loving and positive people I've met! And his disposition is definitely infectious!

On this episode we are not only joined by Andrew but also his mom Vanessa Prince. And between them they have been on over 50 cruises. So the word "expert" may not be powerful enough! They are chock full of tips and tricks to make your Disney experience better. They also have a great perspective on traveling through the Disney properties and ships when using a wheelchair. It's good to know that Disney seems to keep striving to make as much as possible available to as many as possible!

So have a little listen and then head over to YouTube to check out Andrew's channel! You can thank me later!!!

What better way to honor the sacrifice of our fallen military than by discussing the deep patriotism of Walt Disney himself. The beginning monologue in Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress proclaims that Walt was as about American as anyone could be. And he himself said, "If you could see in my eyes, the American flag is waving in both of them and my spine is growing this red, white and blue stripe.”
