The Gaylord Opryland Resort

The Gaylord Opryland Resort! 

 I loved my trip here. The hotels by Gaylord are just absolutely beautiful.

 I was there(Nashville location) during the holidays which made it just fabulous! The resorts they have across the states are expanse! It is almost like their own little communities. Great restaurants and stores available inside the resorts. 

We had a balcony facing into one of the atriums which was so relaxing to sit at. We could people watch, enjoy the ambiance and not have to worry about bugs!

 The resort offers free shuttle service for it's guests to Opry Mills Mall, airport and the Grand Ole Opry House. You could walk but depending on the weather & your company --the shuttle is a nice service option. The shuttle was a large clean bus which came fairly often. We took advantage of this, shuttled over the the Original Grand Ole' Opry house to see the Rockettes! The Christmas Spirit was really felt during this trip!

 Within the resort, the Delta atrium, you could take a little slow boat ride around without a cost.  

  Pepsi is abundant around these parts & Coke is not. I am a coke gal! 

 Our room came with a mini fridge. The bathroom has a vanity area separate from the toilet/shower area, which also had it's own vanity area. This made it handy for people getting ready at the same time. The beds were very comfy. The staff was very friendly. 

 Dreamwork characters were available to dine with for our trip. The themes can definitely change. Reservations for Shrek and friends breakfast was available when I went. Separate character booths were also set up around the atrium for meet & greets as well (Santa during the Holidays). 

 We were fortunate enough to see The ICE exhibit! It was fascinating for sure. The pieces were beautifully made and gigantic. The pictures do not show the proper scale. One area showed how the pieces were created. One of the sculptors was on hand, using his BARE hand to work with! 

 I would recommend this as a great vacation get away.

 If you would like any other information on, I would be happy to help you!

 Gaylord just released this years ICE displays for their resorts; Rudolph, A Christmas Story & The Grinch!

 Just seeing the email news, I quickly secured some rooms so we could go back and enjoy it again!

 This year, a Grinch Dining experience is available which I plan to take advantage of. 
There is a gingerbread house work station available for the kids, a little train to ride and plenty of Hot cocoa. These are of course extra.   

 Family trip or friend trip, I highly recommend it!

 Use a dedicated travel agent to make sure you know all the ins & outs that can make your trip that much better!

The Disney Cruise Lines offer Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique Makeover with more options than you could ever get at the parks!!!! (Fantasy & Dream boats) You can get First Mate, Pirate, Mermaid, Princess and even a star Wars makeover (depending on the sailing you book under) We did the standard Princess Makeover although we have done Pirates in the past (for son and daughter) It is always a fantastic experience! The children feel so special with all the extra attention with makeover to boot! How do you not love that?! They do start around $19.00 for boys and $55.00 starting rate for girls. They can definitely escalate depending on the amazing options you could add to it from $100, $200 and even $750.00 (Yes, You read that correctly~$750.00) Of course booking for this opens when your cruise registration opens. You must be paid in full and the opening registration depends on If you are a new cruiser or the Castaway Club level you are. Previous sailings I have always booked arou

virtual Run Disney review from Dealing with Disney

I decided to finally see what the virtual Disney Runs were all about. A friend of mine told me she signed up. She wanted to keep her momentum going which inspired me to look into as well. I have learned to love the Run Disney events. It appears they offer seasonal Virtual events options from the Run Disney website. (see link HERE ) There were 3 races available to choose from or a full circuit registration containing all 3 races. This came with a bonus medal as well.  Each event was $45.00 and the combined package was $145.00. This was more $$ obviously but ok, I can see they have added in the cost of the extra medal you earn. What does this get me or should I say, what do I get out of this event? I can see the Disney love of just doing it for Disney,  doing it for the medal or doing it to keep momentum of working towards goals. All options seemed very reasonable to me and got me excited, therefore I signed up for the gauntlet. My friend pointed out her whole family

Walt Disney World Halloween 2020 re-opening experiences by Dealing with Disney

My review from my latest Disney world experience.   This trip was definitely not one of my favorites! Before you read all my cons.. .Keep  in mind, I still enjoyed this trip.  The main point of this is to have proper expectation for your needs/stay. If you go into a park without proper expectation, it can really throw your trip OFF!  We had some great moments. We had some rest spots - drinks - treats which were nice.   One amazing PLUS: The security checks are a breeze now! No lie.. their big concern are umbrellas and water bottles (metal ones) tend to set off the machines. They ask for those to be pulled out of back packs but all other items you can walk through with!  I loved still having the time to appreciate the little things in the park that we take for granted. The craftsmanship in all the art around the park/architecture , the plant life every where!   I will be honest, part of the reason was due to my own family! Hey, I always like to keep It real-in perspective we shall say.
