Disney Information Sites

There are so many places to get Disney information. Sometimes, there is misinformation from rumors and so forth and of course, many that hold one's own opinion. This is what my blog is at part, as a prime example... my thoughts of the new fireworks show at MK with the Summer Nightastic. Regardless, of my opinion, mine isn't meant to sway someone one way or another. It's just my opinion. Today's blog, is to give other options of sites to help find information and other opinions. Some are blogs I follow. This is just a few.... there are many other sites out there.

My Disney Addiction

I was introduced to the joy and wonders of Disney as a child. I remember watching it on television at night with my older sisters and parents. We moved to Florida in 1972 and that was my first trip to the World. That was when it was just the Magic Kingdom. Where you got actual tickets for the rides. They were lettered and certain rides were certain lettered rides. I think we went 3 times in the 3 years we lived in Florida (that time). At some point I got a Disney Long Playing (Yes, LP) Storybook album. It was Robin Hood. I still know all the words to that. I also have one still for Black Beauty that Disney did. There were also some other LPs and small story book albums that were 45's.

When we moved back to Florida (to the same area, 4 hours away), I got to Disney maybe 3-4 times. Then we moved to North Florida. 90 minutes away from my happy place... okay, OUR happy place!

Since moving so close... I have gotten to WDW at least 100 times in 17 years. Nice to go for just a day... couple hours... weekend. To meet up with old friends, some for the first time, some for their first trip ever. To run away from the madness of my world at home! (Don't get me wrong, life isn't bad AT all, but a dose of Mickey does great for one's mental health).

I got to become an Annual Passholder, and eventually, bought into the DVC. I am also a PROUD member of the D23. I just got my card the other day. I am waiting for all the other good things to come. I was in the old Disney Magazine (next to last issue), am a subscriber to Celebrations Magazine and eagerly awaiting the next issue (April/May 2009). I have something posted on my private blog that I will move here eventually.

I will also note for you all that the info here is from my point of view and my experience. There is a chance I may have some wrong info. I admit, to others astonishment, that I am not perfect. LOL If I have some bad info, I apologize.

(Note about the Disney Tunes: yes, I know Anastasia wasn't a Disney Movie... but I love it all the same.)
