Disney Portable Computing

ASUS has teamed up with Disney, and is creating a new item that will be termed the Disney Netpal.  This is a small unit similar to the current netbooks.

I guess that Disney really wants to get their hands into everything.  Food, Games, Electronics, and more.

    There is now a new option for you to use so that you don’t need to stay on a phone while you look, and decide on things.  You can now book your standard dining reservations, or dinner shows online.  Click on over to Disney Dining.  You can make your reservations for up to 90 days away.  All you do is either enter the restaurant you want, or search.  Once found enter your desired date, and time.  Then enter the amount of people in the party.  After that it checks availability.  If your search results with nothing available the system will automatically offer alternate choices.

    Disney World & Weather

    Has anyone ever noticed that Disney World in Florida seems immune to most weather situations?  I have made a joke for years now that Disney World must have a bubble over them because when the hurricanes, and the other bad weather comes Disney World always comes out with practically no damage.

    Have you ever wondered about this amazing place?

    It seems there is always a sky of Blue Advantage.  When you think about it business in Disney World does pretty good even when there is a little storm.  I know that Disney does take safety steps to ensure that noone could possibly get hurt because when there is a bad storm rolling in they have closed the parks for this type of occurrence.

    If they could only harness this incredible power, and use it to their benefit on the Disney Cruises.

    1900 Park Fare Dining

    My family has eaten at 1900 Park Fare for many years.  1900 Park Fare is located in the Grand Floridian Resort of Walt Disney World.  They feature a buffet style dining experience.  In comparison to most of the other dining experiences this one stands out.

    You are whisked into a dining room that is decorated in the Victorian style.  There are carousel animals throughout the area.  There is even an old style organ high above the room.

    During dining you have the opportunity to meet several characters.

    Dinner hosts Cinderella, Prince Charmin, Wicked Stepmother, and the Sisters.

    In comparison to many years ago Disney has changed their styles of food.  It appears that they have gone into foods that are cheaper to cook from my standpoint.  No matter what you still almost need diet pills to keep from eating until you burst.  The food is very tasty.  I am still upset because I have yet to find another location on Disney grounds that serves Banana Fosters like they had at 1900 Park Fare.

    The bill will definitelly leave you wishing you had eaten more.  The experience is one of a kind.
