    What resorts have the gingerbread displays this year and what refillable cup designs are offered?

    Hey there, hi there, ho there Elisha! You're as welcome as can be at planDisney, and thanks for stopping by. You'll be arriving at the Most Magical Place on Earth is just a few days... woo hoo!

    My family and I just returned from a lovely stay at Disney's Grand Floridian. We did notice that although this year they are not featuring a gingerbread house, the lobby refurbishment has been completed and it was full of festive decorations. 

    Taking a tour of a few Disney Resorts can be such an enjoyable adventure. This year you can find gingerbread displays at the following locations:

        •    Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
        •    Disney’s Beach Club Resort
        •    Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
        •    Disney’s Contemporary Resort

    ... with an honorable mention of Wilderness Resort, which is featuring a chocolate resort replica. My fellow panelist Eean wrote a lovely guest response featuring the best Disney Resorts to see gingerbread houses this year, I highly recommend checking it out. 

    Now on to discussing one of my favorite things: refillable mugs! What a perfect companion to take along on your Disney Resort tour... for free refills of hot cocoa, coffee, or Diet Coke along the way. Excellent strategy. As of last week, I was seeing the same mug design at all the Disney Resorts we visited. It's a whimsical scene featuring Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy zooming along in Mickey's car, along with icons from all four Disney Parks, a few representations of various Disney Resorts, all under fireworks-filled sky! You have your choice of a turquoise, green, orange, or hot pink lid. They're adorable, and so colorful.

    Elisha, I'll be wishing upon a star that you have a fabulous visit to Walt Disney World Resort next week! Please visit us any time at planDisney, we love to help sprinkle pixie-dust and answer guest's questions.

    See ya' real soon!
