Bull & Bear Waldorf Astoria Orlando: Our Splurge-Worthy Dining Review

November 13, 2019

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Hilton Bonnet Creek (make sure to check out our resort review too), and one of the best things about staying at this hotel is you have access to also enjoy their sister property Waldorf Astoria Orlando. As you would expect, there are some high-end dining experiences here, and the list includes one of the finest steakhouses: Bull & Bear. We knew this meal would be a fancy splurge, but little did we know it would end up being one of the most memorable dinners we’ve ever had. Read on for all of the delicious details…

Hilton Bonnet Creek

Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek Review: Your Perfect Adult Getaway with Disney Access!

November 11, 2019

Even though we now live in Orlando, we still find ourselves staying on property from time to time. There is something special about booking a little staycation and leaving the parks to a resort room, instead of facing a drive home late at night. We have done a few one night stays using our Disney Vacation Club points since moving here, but we do have a limited number of DVC points. We decided it was the perfect time to broaden our horizons and start checking out some other nearby hotels and resorts. For Andrew’s birthday weekend we booked a weekend getaway at Hilton Bonnet Creek. Read on to hear all about this resort…

Movie Review: Disney's 'Maleficent: Mistress of Evil' – Is This Sequel Worth Watching Now?

October 16, 2019

Maleficent has always been one of the most memorable Disney villains and we had really enjoyed when Disney developed the live action “Maleficent.” Unlike some of the other movies that stuck close to the original story, this movie offered a unique and memorable twist. When we heard that a sequel was coming out (by the way can you believe it’s been five years since the first?) we were excited to see where this story would continue. Last night we were invited to attend an early screening of “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil”, read on to hear what we thought…

Once again it is that spooky season at the parks, and it is time for another Disney Friends Blog Hop! Being October, what is more appropriate theme than Halloween? We will be discussing Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party (if you are looking for a great overview of the party in general make sure to start with our article from last year first: “10 Tips for Adults to Enjoy Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party.”) While every year many people report on what is new at the party, this year we wanted to dig in a little further… We were able to attend the party quite a few times and do some experimenting on different aspects of the party. Curious to learn more on what we discovered? Read on, if you dare… (then check out the end of this article for other fun Disney Halloween articles!)
