DADventure Disney Tip #14 – Bring A Streaming Device
As the planning starts to gear up for a potential 2022 return for the DADventure Family to Walt Disney World, I’m sharing more quick tips with you all. I’ve often said that a BIG part of planning your daily schedule at Disney is to build in DOWN TIME! Going all day, every day, at the…
DADventure Disney Tip #13 – Stay At A Skyliner Resort
As the planning starts to gear up for a potential 2022 return for the DADventure Family to Walt Disney World, I’m going to start sharing more quick tips with you all as I go along. For me, there was no bigger game changer at Disney World than the Skyliner opening in 2019. Those of you…
DADventure Disney Tip #12 – Bring Your Stroller!
If you were 6 or under and had a ‘fun’ day planned that involved 12-14 miles of foot travel every day – wouldn’t you want a place to sit for some of it? Yeah. I thought so. A few people gave me their tip that I really wouldn’t need our stroller at the Walt Disney…

DADventure Disney Tip #8 – Do You Speak Star Wars? You’ll Have to in Galaxy’s Edge
When you’re in Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, it is truly Star Wars Land. The food, the Cast Members, the shops and the language are all uniquely Star Wars. If you’re not a huge Star Wars fan, you may find it a bit overwhelming and somewhat annoying. My wife is NOT a Star Wars fan. Not…
DADventure Disney Tip #7 – Parade Time? DO NOT Do What I Did!
I won’t lie, with the little ones, we didn’t plan on catching the Festival of Fantasy Parade at the Magic Kingdom while we were there. The parade comes at the time of the day when we should be out of the parks and running for calmer/cooler waters. As we headed for the front gate of…
DADventure Disney Tip #6 – Maximize Rope Drop By Avoiding The Crazy Popular Rides
If you’ve already checked off all the “rope-drop and run” attractions on your trip (Flight of Passage, Toy Story Mania, Seven Dwarfs), try rope-dropping something unexpected. One of our last mornings there, we took the Skyliner (Post: Disney Skyliner is a Game-Changer!) the five-minute ride from Caribbean Beach Resort to Hollywood Studios. We’ve been to…
