MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

 Merry Christmas to everyone!  

We have moved into (or daily continuing to move in) our new house in our new home state of Tennessee!

It will take a while to get settled, but we are here!!

GOING ON HIATUS.

 Hello to all my readers!  As this blog page has been around for a really long time, and I am so used to posting, this is going to be tough.  

We are preparing for our move south, and right now with all the packing, and getting things ready, I just don't have the time to devote to the blog page right now.  

I am going to go on a temporary hiatus as all this transpires.  Once we get "settled" where we will wind up I will begin to post once again.  

Please stick with me here, and don't go anywhere!!  I will be back to share my Disney antics with you in about 2 months.  

I have a Disney trip planned at the end of November, so I will be back to share pre-plans and then cover that trip.  

Thanks to all of you for sticking with me all these years, and I look forward to continuing on in the not too distant future!  

Bless you, all!

Kris, your Disneynut!

Happy Labor Day!

SILLY SATURDAY!!

FOODIE FRIDAY~~ Continuing Our Disney Wonder Dining (drinking)!

 Since DCL has started cruising again, I feel this is rather timely to talk about our experience on our second Disney cruise aboard the WONDER!

Last week we featured our standout dinner at PALO.  Today we talk about what was next in line as far as days go  Not really a meal here, but it was a wine and chocolate pairings seminar we set up for our cruise group.  This was mid-afternoon on a day at sea, and it was so fun!!  For those who really know me well, you know I love my wines and I LOVE chocolate!!  I felt like I had died and gone to heaven because, in my heaven, there IS both!!  

Join us again next week for FOODIE FRIDAY!!  We will take a look at our dinner meal on this same day at Animator's Palette!! 

THROWBACK THURSDAY! Ariel and the Disney Wonder!

When boarding the Disney Wonder for the first time, and seeing this statue of Ariel (my favorite Disney Princess)...........

well, to say it was a little emotional is putting it mildly!  

Here I am posing with my BFF Princess a couple days later!

I did go to the gift shop and bought one of the miniature statues of my very own!

 

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY!

HAPPY TEN YEARS of Walt Disney Maniacs!!

 My Facebook group, WALT DISNEY MANIACS is celebrating its 10th  year of existence today.  

I can't believe I started that group so long ago, and it's been a part of my everyday life ever since.  

A big thank you to all who belong, and who have supported this adventure for 10 years! 

I want to give a big shout-out to my three admins in the group who have been a great help, and for

 taking the reins when I travel.  Cathy, Kelly, and Joe thank you!!  

Here is to another great year ahead!  

Cheers!

JUNGLE CRUISE Review (No Spoilers)

 Hey all!  I just got home from seeing Jungle Cruise, and I have to say I really enjoyed it, and I got to see it for free......which was really cool too!

I had gone to dinner with a friend at Applebee's the other night, and they had a promo going for a free ticket (or tickets) depending on how much you spent.  For every $25 purchase and taking a photo of your receipt and submitting it, you got one ticket.  If you spend $50 you get two.  

So, I sent in the photo of the itemized receipt, and it was accepted.  They sent me the code and I went from there to get my free tickets from FANDANGO.

   

Let's get to the film.  Without spoiling anything, (because I know so many have not seen it as of yet) it was full of adventure, stunts, explosions, crazy scary creatures, and corny jokes!!  

I really loved Emily Blunt in this.  After finding out she did her own stunts, it made me appreciate her performance even more.  

Dwayne Johnson was, well.........what you would expect from him.  Crazy stunts, funny jokes, and a great smile.  

The actor (Jack Whitehall) who played Lily's (Emily Blunt's character) brother was really good as well. 

One of my favorite actors, Paul Giamatti plays Nilo Nemolato, the harbormaster who pretty much owns everything on the water.  His part was not big, but it added a great touch, and he played the part so very well.

Other than it was great, and you need to see it, I am saying no more!  I don't want to spoil it.  

IF you have seen the film, let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
