So much amazing stuff going on, thought I would share some of what I have enjoyed this past week:
Relive the Magic shared with me the opening date of the NEW Princess Fairytale Hall in Fantasyland has been set for September 18th. You can read about it on his website here. We love meeting the Princesses each visit – and yes, that includes my girls only race-cations!
Disbroad Patty shared this photo of my next runDisney race Medal – The Wine&Dine Half Marathon. This is a redesign and while I wanted the old version which was Spaceship Earth, I do LOVE this one and am so excited – only 2 more months. Patty and many friends were out at Disneyland for Disneyland Half Weekend and many new medal designs were revealed including the Wine & Dine. I had a blast last weekend following along with many of my running friends and when I will be sure to share some recaps of the race with you as they get published…I know many are still in recovery mode from 19.3 mile in some HOT HOT HOT temps.

Disney Parks Blog shared this Haunted Mansion Inspired Dooney and Burke Purse in time for Halloween at Disney! LOVE the wall paper design, so subtle, yet a fun reminder of one of my favorite Dark Rides! This bag will be available at select locations in Disneyland and Walt Disney World parks September 13th. It will also be available later this fall on the Disney Store Parks online store which currently has some CUTE haunted mansion items and Halloween items – save 15% on these with the purchase of a Costume and code: PARKTREAT. But hurry, bags won’t be around forever now will this discount online!

Do you like Starbucks Coffee AND Epcot. Well you are in luck! Fountain View Starbucks opened this past week in Future World. You can read about here at my favorite got to place for all things Disney Food and Drink related – DisDining.com! Personally, I am happy with Starbucks in the parks because quite frankly the coffee at the parks well, it just wasn’t good. There I said it!
AND Last from my friend and travel affiliate Jennifer Green with Destinations in Florida Travel Agency, I got the following updates – note: as an affiliate partner, a visit to Jenn’s site from link above could result in referral for me – however I have booked my Princess Half weekend with her and from my experience she is great to work with! All opinions are truly my own.
Princess Half – Still a few rooms in her Very Important Princess Discounted Group Block of rooms available. Resorts include POP Century, Port Orleans Riverside, and Contemporary Resort. These are the cheapest I have seen and she has discounted park tickets available for those who book with her in her block. Contact Jenn for a quote if you still need a room!
Fall Discounts – Current Free Dining is ONLY available to book through September 15th. Word has it FREE Dining Offers at this point is VERY Limited, but there is also a Room Only option available too.
SERIOUSLY FALL IS THE BEST TIME TO GO TO DISNEY!
AND One more 2013 Disney Discount – of course my Wine and Dine Trip is blacked out though – yeah go figure!

I want to see the princesses! And I want that W&D medal. I can do without the Dooney. Not my cup of tea.
Suzanne says
Ahh…this makes me antsy for the family trip. Can not wait to take E to the Princess Fairytale Hall. Also can not wait to bring the Wine & Dine medal home with me a few weeks later.
Kristen :) says
I haven’t finished unpacking either 😉 I’ll take that Dooney too.
Julie Franklin says
Dooney’s all the way around!

Thanks for the updates! I kind of love that Dooney, sigh.
Julie Franklin says
I love it, but the Vera is more close to my budget! WAH.
Amy Albers says
I love that purse! However, I will be in marriage counseling if I blow $330 on a bag.
Julie Franklin says
Yep me too…..plus have to save up for DDD!
Jennifer K. says
I like that bag, but I already have one $300 black bag. There’s no way I can make a case for a second one.
Julie Franklin says
