The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2015

Start planning your 2015 Disney World vacation right with The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2015 book. The book, which is the size of a Harry Potter novel, has lots of tips and tricks that will give you the best Disney experience possible!
The book is unofficial which means Disney takes no part in the publication. This doesn't downgrade the book in any way though. In fact, I expect the author would be more honest about the parks because he doesn't work for Disney. He is writing about the places to go and see at Disney and being honest if something isn't as amazing as you've heard. He doesn't hype things up to get more theme-park-goers.
The book goes into great detail about everything! It gives you advice for planning and it gives you crowd estimates and even talks about the special ticketed events so you can see if it is worth paying the extra money or not. The book also goes into detail about all the accommodations Disney provides including policies, Fast Pass/Magic Band information, benefits of staying at a Disney resort, and more. This edition even talks about the Disney Cruise Line. All editions discuss what is new in the parks though not as much detail is given to extremely new attractions since these books are written so far in advanced I imagine. And there are even tips for visiting other parks like Universal and Sea World. Yep, this book literally has it all.
When my family and I went to Disney last year, we used the guide book mostly to plan where we were going to eat with the Disney Dining Plan. The book is split by each park so when you arrive to the Dining Section and want to find places to eat at Epcot you just find that park's section and can see a chart of all the restaurants, their ratings, and if the restaurants serve snacks or meals for the dining plan. 
This book is a must for planning a Disney trip! It is by no means lacking in information and provides so many tips for rides, dining, which resort is best to stay, and more! Pick it up today on Amazon! CLICK HERE!

The Nostalgia Critic's Disneycember

Nothing gets me quite as excited as hearing the words, "Hello I'm the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so you don't have to." The Nostalgia Critic is arguably the best YouTuber I've ever watched and indeed one of the best critics. His real name is Doug Walker and his black comedic and satirical reviews began in 2007. He reviews movies and TV from the 80's and 90's and man is he popular. I've always been a fan of his work but until recently I wasn't up to speed on all of his videos. I have since caught up quite a bit and can't get enough.

This month I am recommending Walker's series called Disneycember. The series started in December of 2011 and has been consistent series every December since. I guess I should put up a warning now that Walker's videos definitely contain more mature content and is not meant to be viewed by kids but by nostalgia adults. The content can be a bit racy. You have been warned. That being said, I freaking love how "adult" Walker's videos are. He doesn't hold back. He is just flat out honest and I love it. And it isn't just the "adult" language he uses to be honest but just his honesty in general. He states his opinions even if they are controversial or breaking away from the status quo and I respect that. He also makes very well rounded arguments and is open to people questioning his opinions to start conversation.

Walker's Nostalgia Critic reviews are hilarious. Disneycember strays away from the usual comedy though and just features Walker talking about the films and why he likes them or doesn't. And he doesn't BS when it comes to this stuff. You can tell her cares about these movies and has really thought hard about what he is going to say. His reviews are excellent, short and sweet. I definitely disagreed with him on certain aspects of the films but I loved his commentary. His genuine approach to Disney makes the viewer much more comfortable and open to what he is going to say.

Disneycember is a must watch. Check it out in the links below! I wonder if he will be doing another Disneycember series this year!?

Disney's Apples to Apples

As far as I'm concerned, mid October is the start of Christmas and the holidays and the holidays mean family time. A great way to take advantage of time together is by playing board games and what could be better when you combine board games with Disney?!
This month, I am recommending the game Apple to Apples, Disney edition. If you're not sure how this game works, allow me to explain. Apples to Apples is a card game. There are red cards and green cards. On the red cards are nouns (person, place, thing, or idea) and the green cards are adjectives. Simple grammar, right? The game must be played with at least three people though four or more is recommended. The object of the game is to gather the green cards. Whoever has the most adjective/green cards by the end of the game, wins.
Each player gets a certain amount of red cards. They are not supposed to let each other view their selections. To start the game, one person becomes the judge and picks up a green card from the pile and lays it down for the other players to see. It is the job of the rest of the players to put down a noun from their hand that they feel best fits the adjective. All red cards should be face down. Once everyone besides the judge puts down a red card, the judge gathers the cards and decides which red card fits the adjective best. Whoever put down that card wins the round and gets to keep the green adjective card.
Here is an example game: the adjective I put down is romantic. Players put down Hercules, Lumiere, Baymax, and Belle. You may be wondering why Baymax is on this list. Well, the game leaves room for silliness and you can always put a card down that purposefully doesn't fit the adjective but is funny to think about in that way, or you can put a card down that is the opposite or to be ironic. In the end, the judge decides and may like you sense of humor or may like that you chose to be straightforward.
Be sure to pick up Disney's Apples to Apples today and spend lots of hours playing with your family!
