When staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel I tend to consider the dining options when making my final decision. Is there somewhere to grab a quick and delicious breakfast? What type of table service dining " if any " is available? Can I find good coffee quickly in the morning? All important factors when choosing a hotel.

Happy Friday and happy last day of September! We have some exciting news to round up today including a new chance to meet the Disney Princesses at Disney Springs and a brand new Disney Food Blog Guide has been published! Let's check it out.

At the 2016 Epcot International Food & Wine Festival Marketplace Booths, guests will have a chance to sip and savor more than 300 domestic and international wines. More than 50 wineries will be featured in all, but for a glorious taste of the Golden State be sure to make your way to the new Wine & Dine Studio. If you haven't been to Food & Wine for a few years, you'll find this booth in Future World along the walkway between Imagination and World Showcase.

One of the things that I was most looking forward to on my trip to Walt Disney World last week was the chance to see the new at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Now, I'm not really a huge Star Wars fan, but I do love fireworks, and goes to a galaxy far beyond that, the show did not disappoint.

Happy middle of the week! We have a lot to talk about in today's Disney news round-up including the wearable gift cards available for the 2016 Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Disney is looking for a family to cast in its new commercial, and much more.

The joys of Epcot on a Festival day are plenty, but the truth of Florida in September and early October means that folks can start to feel a little more spent than expected. With rich foods, lots of booze, high heat, humidity, long lines, and little shade - it's not uncommon to hear of guests that feel ill in the middle of the day. It's OK though, with a little pre-planning you can tour the festival like a pro.

Unlike most of the Lands in Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, Tomorrowland is always fighting against time to stay current and ahead of it all in this modern age. This has lead to a bit of personality disorder as the overall themeing and attractions seem to get switched up more than anyplace else. Apparently it's about that time again, and Tomorrowland is getting a facelift.

The nighttime hours at the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks are a completely different experience than the daytime hours. At Epcot the sidewalks twinkle in Future World and the World Showcase pavilions light up, and I still get lost in the dark at Disney's Hollywood Studios. I haven't yet experienced the Animal Kingdom after dark but it's on my "to do" list. And my favorite park after dark? The Magic Kingdom.

Happy Saturday and welcome to a short attraction-focused round-up! The Magic Kingdom is the source of some interesting and exciting attraction and entertainment news this week. Let's check it out.

By seating capacity, it may very well be the smallest table service restaurant in Walt Disney World, and the menu isn't the most exciting fare for dinner. None the less - it can be tough to score a reservation, Beaches & Cream Soda Shop is a great spot to grab an economical Disney meal and a great dessert! Even if you can't score that elusive dinner reservation, it's fun to stop by for a specialty sundae to go.
