New DVC Unit Coming In 2013

Back in March, we brought you news about an upcoming addition to Disney's Grand Floridian Hotel and Spa. While there was speculation at the time that this upcoming addition might be a new set of time share units, we now know this to be true as Disney recently annouced it would be constructing a time share addition to the Grand Floridian.

Winter Travel Tips: Staying Comfortable While Stranded in the Airport

Assuming that you are stuck in the airport with no way out, there are a few things that you can do in order to make yourself a little more comfortable by stashing a few items in your carry-on luggage. If you're stuck at the terminal, there is nothing saying that you will have access to any checked baggage, so you want to make sure that you have some things easily in hand.

Disney VoluntEARS Donate Record Number of Toys

The Disney VoluntEARS have been hard at work collecting toys at WDW's toy drive and recently made a record-setting donation to U.S. Marine Corps Reserve's Central Florida Toys for Tots. Some 30,000 toys, gathered during this year's Toys for Tots toy drive, were delivered by cast members and Mickey himself recently.

Staff at the organization's headquarters say this is the largest donation of toys to date and will go to help some 20,000 children in the Florida counties of Seminole and Orange have a brighter holiday season.

Comedy Warehouse To Serve Up Holiday Laughs

For those of you lucky enough to be headed to WDW this Christmas season, you might want to head over to Disney's Hollywood Studios for some extra holiday cheer. The Comedy Warehouse, which used to be part of the now-defunct Pleasure Island, is set to return for a limited time only. Look for performers to take suggestions from the audience and give holiday classic tales and songs an updated, improv comedy twist.

Plans For Disney Hotel Near Washington, D.C., Canceled

Plans for a Disney hotel in our nation's capital have been scrapped. Disney recently announced they will not be pursuing the building of a hotel in Washington, D.C., though they spent some $11 million to acquire land for the project just three years ago.

Back in 2009, Disney bought fifteen acres of property on the outskirts of the District of Columbia in hopes of constructing a standalone, Disney-themed hotel. The move was part of a larger strategy to build such hotels and even mini theme parks at various locations throughout the country.

App Puts WDW At Your Fingertips

Of course, there's an app for that. For those guests who have an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch, the Walt Disney World Pro app can put Walt Disney World right in the palm of the hand. Literally.

Epcot's Rose & Crown Pub

Located on the shores of World Showcase Lagoon, the Rose & Crown Pub is one of Epcot's most popular spots. "Otium Cum Dignitate" or "Leisure with Dignity" is the motto at this classic English Pub that hosts the only full bar located within Epcot. Advanced Dining Reservations are available if you're looking for table service, but if you hope for something quicker just enter through the double wooden doors beneath the "Pub" sign for a cold drink at this lively little venue.

"Health" Suite Plans At Contemporary Canceled

Back in April, we brought you news about new health and wellness suites at the Contemporary Resort. Now, news out of Disney has it that those plans have been scrapped.

The suites, which were orginally slated to open last month, were to feature in-room exercise equipment, massages and other "healthy" amenities. There is no official word as to why the suite plans fell through.

Tips to Revive Tired Legs During Travel

When I've tracked my mileage around Walt Disney World, I find I walk between 5 and 10 miles a day. That's a lot of miles for guests that live in a generally sedentary society. It's no doubt that walking around the parks all day can lead to sore, achy, tired legs. We've gathered together some home remedy tips to revive your legs and keep you on your feet so that you can keep on touring!
