From character breakfasts to gourmet dinners, Disney has something to satisfy every palate. You know I love my lists……

Skyliner, Easter Eggs, and Fireworks: Our Spring Disney Resort Hop
One of our favorite adventures while staying at Walt Disney World is resort hopping. There’s something so fun about hopping on a bus, the monorail, or the Skyliner and seeing where the day takes you. You can map out a detailed itinerary—or just go where the next ride leads. We’ve done both, and honestly, there’s…

A Weekend at Coronado Springs: What We Loved (and What We Didn’t)
On our recent weekend trip to Walt Disney World, we stayed at Coronado Springs Resort—and while it felt like a big leap away from our usual favorite, Animal Kingdom Lodge, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. We had been eyeing Coronado Springs for a while but always found ourselves pulled back to AKL (and…

Magical Mini-Vacation (Animal Kingdom Lodge)
Repost from momma mommy bwuh. We had a truly enchanting trip to Disney, and we’re already dreaming of our next magical adventure. We recently enjoyed a long weekend away, sparing no expense, and it was worth every single penny. To celebrate the finalization of Boy1 and Boy2’s adoption, Hubs and I whisked them away to…

Orange Lake Resort (Kissimmee, FL – October 2025): Part 3
We kicked off our day bright and early with an 8:10 a.m. reservation at 1900 Park Fare, our very first character dining experience at this charming restaurant inside Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. I’ve been to the Grand Floridian before, but I’ve always entered through the second-floor monorail entrance. It’s beautiful, of course, but walking through…

Orange Lake Resort (Kissimmee, FL – October 2025): Part 2
Quiet mornings at Orange Lake are good for the soul. I love to sleep in while on vacation, but there’s something special about waking up before everyone else and soaking in the peace and stillness of the morning. Our condo porch overlooks a tranquil pond — the perfect backdrop for a slow start to the…

Orange Lake Resort (Kissimmee, FL – October 2025): Part 1
Hubs’ family has owned a timeshare in Kissimmee, Florida for over 40 years. I’ve been visiting the resort nearly every summer (and occasionally other times of the year) for the last 22 years. We have so many memories with family and friends, and with our own little family, at this spot. When the opportunity to…

Part Two: Lake Lure Adventures – Food, Finds, and Farewell
Our second evening was one of my favorite parts of the trip. We ventured out to Grey Hawk Bar and Gardens, an outdoor spot strung with garden tables, cozy firepits, and lawn games. A live band was playing when we arrived, setting the perfect mood. I ordered a cocktail called Cool as a Cucumber—so refreshing,…

Part One: Lake Lure Strong – A Return to the Mountains
I know this blog is called Traveling With My Bwuhs, but this time it was just me and my colleagues. Once a year, we retreat to my boss’s cabin in Lake Lure, NC—a chance to disconnect from work and soak up the quiet of the mountains. Last year, we never made it. Hurricane Helene hit…

Beaufort (July 2025): Part Three
A Bittersweet Farewell to BeaufortThe final day of our weekend getaway to Beaufort was a little bittersweet. As much as we were ready to get home to Barkley, none of us were quite ready for the adventure to end. Still, we made the most of our last few hours—and even squeezed in a bit more…
