I thought I’d share a picture of the Space Shuttle launching over Mission Space in Epcot for the September calendar. This was taken when I was there this past May. I felt like Mission Space was the perfect place to catch one of the last launches that we may see, at least for awhile. You … Continue reading "September Disney World Calendar"

Last year when I went the Character Connection was kind of hidden so we … Continue reading "Walt Disney World as a Teen!!! Part 6"
