What you should--and shouldn't--be worried about during a high crowd day at WDW.

'Recently, on a walk around town with my husband, we were discussing how our trips to Walt Disney World have varied over the years and how we tailor our plans depending on who we are traveling with. One thing, however, that has always remained a constant is our desire to park hop. That got me thinking… how many people actually pay the extra money to park hop and why do they opt to do it?'`

There are eternal struggles in the world that we are all aware of, and the same is true when planning a Disney trip. One of the most often things is whether you should stay onsite or offsite when taking a trip to the World. I’ve done it both ways, and there’s lots to be said for each.

However, with many theme park restaurant entrees now approaching $25 each, families are having to look a little harder for good value at sit-down restaurants. Below is a list of the 20 best sit-down restaurants for value, taking in to account food quality, the restaurant’s setting, portion size and price.

Today we’ve added “squares” to our Disneyland Lands and Disney California Adventure Lands pages, as well as started to fill out the squares in each of the Disney World lands pages. Tom’s heading to Disneyland later this month, and so there will be more Disneyland photo updates to come!
