FYI - THE FORMAT OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM PIC IN THE HEADING

If you have a wide screen monitor the Animal Kingdom photo in the header may seem narrow. However, it fits perfectly for those not having a wide screen monitor. Unfortunately, if we make the picture fix widescreens, the text doesn't fit well on those owning narrow screen monitors. Therefore, the compromise was to narrow the picture for some, rather than ruining the text view for others. We figured the text view was more important.

We thought we would just mention this since we had some questioning why the photo was not wide enough to fit some monitors. Small point maybe, but worth mentioning. And it is something we cannot control.

USING THIS BLOG

We tried keeping the postings short and to the point. The videos, news, links, and ads will help you get a better overview of WDW and viewpoints of others. However, you have to take the time to use the "connections" to truly make this site valuable.

For example:

Links - these bring you to other sites that have much information and other viewpoints. There is no sense for us to reprint information currently available - but instead simply link you to where this data is located on the Net.

Videos - give you some visual ideas of what is offered at the world. These are not our videos, but again will give you the perspective of other guests. There are also connections to updated Disney information including the sites that are most valuable, and even a connection to the show that appears on there hotel TV channel. While watching the video, you can click on it and it will bring you to a site with hundreds of related videos. There is a lot a information, but it takes time to "ingest" it all.

News - Not only did we include local news from the area, but if you go to any of the links on the left column and click on a specific topic, news about that topic will appear. Click on EPCOT and current EPCOT news shows up below. So, you can skip general news and find specific information on parks, rides, etc. before your next visit (or even during your visit if you bring your computer along).

Posts - Short and to the point, but do not forget to go to the older posts link for further information. The main page can only show a specified number of posts. You can also go the left column again and use the archives to locate specific link titles.

Search - Looking for a special topic? Use the search and it will find it for you by bringing you to the section of the blog which has this information.

Hope you have the time to enjoy this blog and its related WDW information. And don't forget to send your friends to the blog if they are going to WDW. We like guests!
