For those of you who stayed up on New Year’s Eve, this may be old news. But Disney is giving away one vacation every day in January!
To enter – just go to the Disney Parks “Disney Time” website and enter. While you are there, be sure to order the free Vacation Planning DVD – we do this every year, even though we are Disney veterans. The Disney Vacation Planning DVD offers great vacation planning tips, an overview of each Disney park, and a review of the hotels and activities available at both the Disneyland and Walt Disney World resorts. Plus – did we mention it’s free?
Good luck on the Disney Vacation contest! And we promise – we will have our next podcast up soon!
Happy New Year!

Disneyland Park is welcoming back various school bands, Ballet Folklorico groups, and Mariachis to celebrate Three Kings Day from January 4-6 at the Disneyland Park in California.
If you plans take you to Anaheim that week, you might stop by the Big Thunder Ranch area of the Disneyland Park to listen to Mariachi music, watch the Ballet Folklorico dancers, or participate in crafts. You can even meet special Disney characters at Big Thunder Ranch for an autograph and photo opp!

I saw some very sad news today – at least for us here in Texas. Disney Cruise Lines will stop sailing from Galveston at the end of 2013. In 2014, all four Disney Cruise ships will sail out of either Port Canaveral or Miami (a new port for the Disney Cruise Line).
I can understand why Disney is doing this. Cruises out of Galveston don’t stop at Disney’s Castaway Cay, which is a real drawback to the location. And cruises from Florida are also in position to go across the Atlantic for sailings in Europe during the slow season in the Caribbean.
So – I guess the pressure is on for me and my family to take advantage of the Disney Magic while it is still here just five hours south of us in Galveston! Right now Disney is still offering the “kids sail free” promotion for sailings out of Miami, but I haven’t seen any new offers for Galveston departures. I’ll keep my eyes open and let y’all know what I find.
What are your thoughts on the change?
