Happy Birthday, All in WDW!

When it comes to this post, I have been struggling with what to write for weeks.  Maybe even months.  But, when all is said and done, it comes down to two simple words.  Two words that you’ve heard (or read) me say before … THANK YOU.  Yes.  Thank you.

Today, All in WDW reaches its 1st birthday – its anniversary.  One year ago, today, I published “An Affair with Food & Wine”.  Yeah, big surprise.  With its very first post, All in WDW was born with “the festival of all festivals” in mind.

Flashing forward, one year later, I can truly say that this “Disney year” has been an absolute blast – for BOTH Mrs. All in WDW and myself.  We’ve done SO much.  Made so many new friends.  Experienced so much of Disney’s magic.  It’s hard to put in words how we feel.  There are so many of you to thank.

ALL of you who have faithfully followed our posts on a daily basis.  Everyone who has …

The State of All in WDW – March Update

Without a doubt, the highlight of this past month was our visit to the Epcot® International Flower & Garden Festival. Of course, around these ‘parts’, we affectionately refer to that feast as the Epcot® International “Food” & Garden Festival … with good reason!

To cover the event, we published:

Mrs. All in WDW and I had a blast bringing you this account of our “Food” & Garden exploits, and we thank you for …

The State of All in WDW – February Update

Hello, all!

My apologies. This one’s a few days late as we actually hit All in WDW’s third month anniversary this past Monday. The fact is, we were in the middle of appointing Flying Fish Cafe as our Favorite Crescent Lake Table Service Restaurant, and I didn’t want to throw a big interruption in our way! Nonetheless, here it is – the February Update.

We accomplished quite a bit this past month. When it came to polls, we also crowned IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth as our Favorite Epcot Attraction by the narrowest of margins – 44 to 43 over iconic Spaceship Earth. In addition, we …

The State of All in WDW – January Update

Here we are! Another month has passed!

If you read my one-month anniversary post back in December you know how grateful I am for the time you share with me every time you stop by to visit All in WDW. Well, make no mistake, I’m very grateful for every mouse-click you make that takes you into this world. I’ve had a blast in our first two months, and I can’t wait to keep on going!

We’ve had a busy month, haven’t we? Polls! Polls! Polls by the thousands! OK … not quite that many, but we did elect several Reader Favorites. Namely, these:

Favorite Disney’s Magic Kingdom Quick Service: Columbia Harbour House

Favorite Disney’s Animal Kingdom Attraction: Expedition Everest

Favorite Disney’s “Fab Five” Character: Mickey Mouse

Favorite WDW Moderate Resort: Port Orleans – French Quarter

Favorite WDW Value Resort: Art of Animation Resort

That was a lot of work!

We added several Tips and Tricks to our list – including …

Happy Anniversary, All in WDW!

Hello, everyone, and let me start by extending my sincere and heartiest thanks for all your support!  For all intents and purposes, All in WDW was born one month ago, and the response you have provided is unadulterated GOLD!  Thanks for sharing your piece of Disney magic with us!

Sunday, November 18, 2012.  That was the day I published the post entitled Welcome to “All in WDW”! as well as the pages I’ll be using over time to record WDW Cast Member “Wanna-Be’s” and our “Tips and Tricks”.  We had 58 views that day – something I was incredibly honored by.  Today, only one month later, we’ve accomplished a ton!  In a minute, I’m going to share some really neat stats, so that you can know what YOU have accomplished.  First, though, let’s take a look at what we’ve done together.
