Welcome to 'Disney Destinations', a blog devoted to providing you practical information, reviews and tips for planning a Disney vacation. I know some of you are probablying thinking...

Oh great...another Disney blog. She's probably going to try to sell me an e-book on planning a Disney vacation, or else promote some travel agency that is giving her kickbacks.

Unlike many of the Disney oriented sites out there, I have started this blog to share the information and strategies I have learned over my many years of going to Disney and planning Disney holidays for myself and others.

Yes, I could probably write an e-book and might make some money from selling it. The difference is that I don't think I should charge people to share the tips and tricks that I have learned over the years about how to plan an enjoyable and stress-free Disney holiday.

I have more than 100 trips to Disney in the past 20 years and have planned both short and long Disney vacations, learning ways to save money while maximizing my fun. Through this blog I will share what I've learned as I discuss:

• the pros and cons of staying on and off site at Disney Resorts,
• Disney restaurant, resort and ride reviews,
• touring plans and guidebooks (and why you don't need to pay for them!),
• Disney Dining Plans,
• and many more Disney vacation topics.

Given the current state of the economy, October's them will be 'Disney on a Dime'. Yes...that is the title of a Travel Channel show. But, having seen the show numerous times, I have to tell you that what they show is hardly a look at how to 'do Disney' on a budget!

If you have questions that fit this theme, or just a question or topic you'd like me to discuss, please feel free to drop me a line (my email is in my profile).

And as always....

Have a Disney Day!
