Is Downtown Disney a Disney Must Do?
So many people seem to think that Downtown Disney is only shopping and true, there is allot of shopping to be had here, but there is so much more! From movies and bowling to food and entertainment!
Food for one is a big part, we seem to always schedule a trip to DTD by where we want to eat…If you are just here to shop till you drop and want to grab a quick snack then you could choose from Pretzels and Fried Candy Bars at Wetzel’s Pretzels and Cookes of Dublin or how about candy and sweets galore then stop at Goofys Candy Company, the Candy Cauldron or Ghiradelli Soda Fountain, they should do the trick.

The Wave…of American Flavors welcomes Brewmaster James Emmerson and Peach Farmers Nicole and Brian Adams. Full Sail Brewery has earned Oregon Brewery of the Year 2013, Best Places to Work 2012, Gold Level Recognition for Sustainability and numerous other awards. The last beer dinner at The Wave sold out in a hurry.
Brewmaster James Emmerson’s Bio: After working summers in the Organic Chemistry Labs at Eli Lilly and Co., he attended brewing school in 1987. He started his brewing career at Sieben’s Brewery in Chicago, Ill, and was hired to be Brewmaster at Full Sail Brewing Co. in April 1988. He has worked in every job in the brewery from grain to glass including recipe design, brewing beer, fermentation, filtration, and packaging. He designed and supervised all of the breweries expansions. In 1995 designed the current facility and brewing systems, a design that has won the brewery numerous sustainability awards
Farmers Nicole and Brian’s Bio: Florida Sweet Brand Peaches is a family owned and operated peach orchard in South West Florida. With just over 70 acres of peaches, the family farm is large enough to supply retailers and restaurants throughout the state and small enough to maintain exceptional quality. In just 7 years, Florida Sweet Peaches has set the standard for this very young industry. Growing peaches has proven to be quite the challenge for a family with citrus roots however they have chosen to meet the challenge and are optimistic that their hard work will indeed be fruitful.

Top 10 Activities for Adults at Walt Disney World
For those of you who think Walt Disney World is “just for kids”, thank again! There is plenty to do for adults too, including:
- Water sports: You can go water skiing, jet-skiing, rent a boat (motorboats, or pedal boats and canoes for the more physically inclined), and even go para-sailing at several WDW resorts
- Sample some world-class cuisine: WDW has become very famous for it’s food, from delicious pastries and baked goods to 5 star cuisine and foods from all over the world, it truly is a dining experience like no other (It’s not just burgers and fries like you might expect at a theme park, although if you really want a burger, they have some super delicious ones!)
- Go on a “Beer Tour” around Epcot: The Epcot World Showcase features countries and their cultures, traditions, foods, and drinks. Each country serves ‘adult beverages’ you would find if you were actually visiting that country, and going from place to place sampling the native drinks is a great way to spend an afternoon. Or try our Disney Around the World Showcase Challenge.
- Nightlife: Catch some live music at the House of Blues, take in La Nouba (Disney’s exclusive Cirque Du Soleil show), or just stroll along the paths of Downtown Disney at night.
