      <image:title>Blog - Our Stay at Sweet Escape! - Recently, we had the opportunity to spend a night at Sweet Escape, a rental property located in Clermont, Florida which is about 45 minutes away from Walt Disney World and about 35 minutes away from Universal Studios Florida. And for everyone used to driving in the greater Orlando area, the route did not include I-4 so traffic was not a problem for us during our travels. To say the stay was amazing is an understatement - this property had everything imaginable to keep our family entertained and we think it would be a fun adventure for your family too!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Our Stay at Sweet Escape! - At the guest house, there was another arcade (yes, you read that correctly too) as well as a couple more bedrooms themed just as well as the main house. This is the perfect place to sleep for the adults who like to be part of the fun, but then escape the house full of kids who were up all night playing arcade games and singing karaoke (believe us, we know from experience). The guest house also included an interactive family game “The Mystery of the Cereal Killer” where your family uses clues to solve the mystery and find the killer! Our kids want us to point out that we did, in fact, find the killer.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts Review - A few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of staying at The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts. The resort is located in Williamsburg, Virginia and is close to numerous area attractions and family adventures (more on this later). Whether you are looking for a long-weekend or a week-long adventure, there are plenty of reasons to visit! This post will highlight our stay and showcase the many benefits we experienced at this amazing property! Spoiler alert: our family loved this resort and think yours will too, so click here for your special offer to plan your next trip!</image:title>
      <image:caption>To make this easier, we will break down our stay into 3 main categories – the rooms, the amenities, and the location. But, before we get started, we wanted to bring special attention to all of the staff we interacted with during our stay. They were all helpful, courteous and worked to make our experience as good as it could possibly be! Last thing before we get started - in the lobby of the main resort building there is a coffee machine (complimentary) that mixed all types of different drinks and was a highlight for our family throughout the weekend.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Blog - The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts Review - Throughout the resort there are multiple room setups that can fit families of almost any size, and for our trip we stayed in a two-bedroom lock-off suite, which is two one-bedroom suites with a common foyer. If your family is larger do not worry, the resort also offers a four-bedroom floor plan. Quick mention - the rooms are all equipped with a washer and dryer. Parking is also a breeze: the resort is set up like a condominium complex where the parking for a given unit is generally right in front of the door. This is especially helpful after a long day of exploring when everyone is just ready to get back to the room to relax!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts Review - The bedroom had an extremely comfortable king bed and plenty of storage space for our suitcases. Even more impressive was the oversized bathroom complete with a vanity, bathtub, and shower. It also had a separate vanity with a sink – so getting ready for our day was easy!</image:title>
      <image:caption>For additional sleeping locations, the couch converts to a queen bed – which we utilized for our kids. Normally they despise sleeping on a pull-out couch, but the quality of these pieces led to no complaints!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts Review - Whether you are looking for relaxation or action, this resort has something for you. Some of our families’ favorites included the indoor pool and the arcade room. It was a little late in the season (end of September) for the outdoor pool, but the size and water features had our kids asking to return in the summer months so they can experience all the fun!</image:title>
      <image:caption>In addition, the daily scheduled activities were a big hit with our family and the kids were excited to make their own stuffed animals (complete with an outfit) and their own hand scrub to bring home as a souvenir. Other family activities included DIY Bookbag Patches, Open Crafting and Scavenger Hunts. For the adults, an outdoor hot tub is always satisfying as well as the available fitness center and tennis courts to burn off some of those vacation calories. Pro tip: we brought grandparents along for this trip and with all the kid’s activities it is the perfect resort to leave the kids and escape for some adult relaxation time!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The Colonies at Williamsburg – Vacation Village Resorts Review - Possibly the best feature of this resort is its proximity to tons of things to do! Our trip was focused on Busch Gardens Williamsburg (20 minutes away) and the travel was efficient and easy to and from the park. We were also situated closely to Water Country USA, Jamestown, Yorktown, and Colonial Williamsburg (only a 10 minute trip). About a mile from the resort is Williamsburg Premium Outlets so all our shopping (and eating) needs were met without any hassle. Another tip: there is a grocery store located in this shopping complex so stocking up your room with all of your essentials is easy!</image:title>
      <image:caption>A few other area attractions include Virginia Beach Aquarium &amp; Marine Science Center, Pirate’s Cove Adventure Golf, and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Williamsburg. With all of the available options, it is easy to see how a family could visit the area and never run out of things to do!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What’s in our Disney Park Bag? - As many of you already know, one of the most important aspects of a Disney vacation is being prepared for what could happen. Circumstances change quickly at Disney - it can go from sun, to torrential downpour, back to sun in the blink of an eye. And our kid’s attitudes can change even quicker! We have found that having the proper supplies in your ‘park bag’ can save the day, especially when the unexpected occurs. (Quick side note: The unexpected will occur! It always does, and for us that is part of the fun that comes with every Walt Disney World adventure!)</image:title>
      <image:caption>So what does our typical ‘park bag’ look like? First, it depends on what kind of park day we’re planning. If it is a longer day we are planning we generally take a backpack. If a shorter park day, we opt for the fanny pack/crossbody.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62f1403783a26f38b51f379f/2a77ea28-db40-4fe1-ba75-e312af5b5884/CE8D9184-226B-4BE3-A88E-3029C2FCF538.jpeg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Blog - What’s in our Disney Park Bag? - We also leave our medical supplies in the room. Each park at Walt Disney World has a first aid station. It is common that someone in our party will get a headache or will scrape their knee. When this happens, a simple visit to the first aid station gets you the attention that you need! We have always found it interesting that the parks sell Tylenol and Advil - and it is quite expensive - but if you visit the first aid station they will give you a dose of the same medicine for free!</image:title>
      <image:caption>So what actually makes it into our fanny pack/crossbody? Phone chargers, of course, and cash. But not much else because the space is so limited. Sometimes we can fit a single portable fan, but this just turns into an argument later in the day over who gets to use it. And our general rule when carrying a fanny pack/crossbody? If you take it from the room with you, you are wearing it (or carrying it) the rest of the night!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What is the Best Season at Walt Disney World? - This is the time of year when a lot of things come together at Disney: the festivals, the special events, the weather, the crowds. This used to be our favorite season at the parks, and if you go this time of year there are a lot of awesome things you can explore. Let's start with the Food and Wine Festival - one of our favorite things to do at Epcot is explore the different offerings while walking around the World Showcase. There is generally live music, an energetic crowd and if you are there in the evening you won't be melted by the Florida sun. Over at Magic Kingdom, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party (MNSSHP) is taking place and is an amazing event to experience at least once in your life. Even if you skip the Halloween event, Magic Kingdom still showcases its fall decorations and generally offers different deserts fitting for the season.</image:title>
    </image:image>

      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62f1403783a26f38b51f379f/1c19a4bc-8605-4cdd-9805-5b84b9c54032/57F3BD8A-AF1C-4351-B939-1DD1D650A7FD.jpeg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Blog - What is the Best Season at Walt Disney World? - During the month of December, Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is happening over at Magic Kingdom. Although we don't enjoy this event as much as MNSSHP, it is still a great experience for families and should be on your to-do list. Over at Epcot, the Festival of the Arts begins in January, which is an extremely under-rated event. It brings in some of the elements of both Food and Wine and Flower and Garden festivals, while showcasing Disney art and artists throughout the park. (This is the time in this post where Paula interjects and wants to say the Festival of the Holidays is also a great event at Epcot. It is an ok festival, but you certainly shouldn't plan your vacation around it.) Probably the most intriguing aspect of this season is the crowds. The lowest crowds we have ever experienced at Walt Disney World were during the winter months, with the exception of Christmas and New Years. If riding rides is your main goal, this is definitely the time of year for you!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Our Top 3 Walt Disney World Resorts - This resort is in our top 3 for obvious reasons; it is beautiful, has great transportation options, and it’s new!</image:title>
      <image:caption>The hotel is designed with European inspiration and has amazing views over most of Walt Disney World.  Some of the best views (and food) on property can be found at Topolino’s Terrace. The rooms are wonderfully designed and they all feel close to the action since this resort is built upward (instead of spread out like moderate resorts).</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Our Top 3 Walt Disney World Resorts</image:title>
      <image:caption>When it comes to transportation, there are few places on property that are better. Getting to Epcot and Hollywood Studios is easy using the skyliner, and the other parks feel close with the resort's dedicated busing and central location on property. After a long park day, having efficient transportation makes our trip better - especially with children! Speaking of making life easier with children, our current favorite character breakfast is at the resort which is really convenient when getting your family up, ready and on time to those early reservations. Lastly, this resort is the newest resort on property that isn’t the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser. New isn’t always better, but the quality of the bedding, state of the furnishing and decorations, and optimal use of the space in the rooms is on point. This resort truly makes us feel like we are at home, if our home was on a European Riviera!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Our Top 3 Walt Disney World Resorts - If you choose a savannah view room, you will have the unforgettable experience of seeing animals right from your balcony. In our experience, it is common to come home from a long day in the parks to be greeted by giraffes right outside of our room. If you are going to Walt Disney World for once-in-a-lifetime/never want to forget memories, then this resort should be at the top of your list.   The transportation is split between Jambo House and Kidani Village, but each location only has one stop, so this doesn't negatively impact the experience too much. If you can’t tell, resorts that do not have their own busing or have multiple bus stops are generally not our favorite. One of the obvious downsides to the resort is its distance from just about anything on property but the lush setting, 11,000 square foot pool and animal filled savannas make the extra travel time worth it for our family.</image:title>
