A Christmas Delight at Disney Springs

Enjoy the Disney Springs Trail of Trees AKA Christmas Tree Trail

This is the second year I was able to enjoy this free treat offered at Disney Springs.
Over a dozen trees are themed after fabulous movies, parks or attractions related to Disney.
Such details can be found, and some may be lost on those who may not know the movies inside and out! It is fun to see the ornaments that adorn the tree, to see how creative the designers can be!

Snow flurries blow out off and on while walking the trail! It seems like it is every minute, but I am sure it is not! Haha

Deep in the heart of the trail, you will find Santa Claus! This line can grow and is based on first come first serve. You sign in and are provided a return time! This way one can go and enjoy the trees or surrounding area instead of standing in yet another queue. The return time when we were there was for 60 minutes. This is not too bad to me considering. He has a gorgeous cabin home background and the Christmas Vibe is strong!

You can also find amazing Hot Cocoa served here along with free cotton candy and popcorn! Gingerbread seems to also be in abundance here and everywhere.

One thing I found here and no where else (Outside of Disney Springs) was a super cool bottle topper w/ straw. Shaped in the classic Mickey head in a peppermint design, this topper screws right on top of pretty much any bottle. The straw goes through and has a lock on it so not to come out (unless you use it wrong). PLUS!!! It has a light up button! It lights up! You can’t see it at all in daylight but at night it is very bright and adorable! You have to buy it with a bottled drink which works out to about $10.. NOT the best price but not the worst! I LOVE it and maybe bought a few!

You can also find the normal souvenir refillable popcorn buckets and the Disney Springs refillable resort mug. There is a fee for the refills but not bad.

They also have the specialty collectible souvenir Popcorn holders and cup holders: Elf Mickey, Christmas Tree (light up), Pluto wearing a sweater and Snowman Mickey head.

I love seeing the holidays bright with magical touches! The carousel placed Santa hats on all the pony’s heads with ribbons tied to their tails! How adorable. It seems everywhere I looked, there were touches of magic to see!

I encourage you to enjoy the sights to be had here!

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 whol...

The Garden Grill 2020 experience

 I have always loved the Garden Grill restaurant located in EPCOT.  The food has NEVER disappointed.  The rotating dining room is such a peaceful addition to your setting.  One care barely tell it rotates, it is so slow.  I am pretty positive it takes a full hour to make a full rotation  As it rotates you can get some over view of the Living with the Land Attraction which I absolutely love.  Many of the fresh garden items are harvested directly from that garden (Living with the Land Attraction) .  They serve breakfast lunch and dinner but currently it is only lunch and dinner. Hopefully full operations will be back up and running.  Garden Grill is a set menu all you can eat family style meal. This location offers characters; Mickey, Pluto, Chip & Dale however they are not interacting right now. They do walk around but at a distance.  You can take pictures that look as if they are photo bombing you.  I pray they get back to regu...
