Christmas and New Years is such a magical time to visit Walt Disney World, that is until you hear the rumors of parks closing and the crowds.

As we look forward to 2019 and probably a pretty big crowd year, I want to take a moment to explain how the park closes, what a park closing actually means, and my recommendations for enjoying these peak times at the parks.

Everything is Better at Disney, Even Golf.

Everything is Better at Disney, Even Golf.

Everything is Better at Disney, Even Golf. 

It’s a running tag line around my house that “everything is better at Disney”. And while we say it in a joking manner, we also acknowledge that the statement carries a lot of truth. Disney’s over-obsession with customer service and guest satisfaction pours into everything that they do and it shows.

But it’s not just the typical that Disney magic applies to. Disney offers so many “outside the box” activities that will touch on at another time but today we are going to talk about one of my favorites. Golf.

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party

When it comes to holidays everyone has their favorites, and Disney does them all. In fact, the holidays are usually peak times for Disney travel and for good reason. Walt Disney World seems to grab hold of the very essence of the Holiday and completely run with it. Halloween is no different. Growing up in south Louisiana this was always one of my favorite holidays, in part because fall meant cooler weather was on the way, but the rest I have to blame on my parents. Halloween was always the one holiday that they went all out. Decorations, candy, and costumes were just the start. Halloween night at our house was theatrics at its best. This was reason enough for Halloween to become one of my favorite holidays and one of my favorite times to go to Disney, for much of the same reason.
