After a successful trip to Disney, I wanted to share with everyone how I planned for a flawless trip and did Magic Kingdom within a day. I put a lot of planning into my trip and even helped cut down on some of the costs for the initial day. I have decided to share my wisdom so other people could do Disney in a day and even afford Disney a little better. Now it is important to keep in mind I am a Floridian, so I didn't have to worry about plane tickets, but you could use the same planning concept from far away as well.
The Planning Process
Obviously the first part of the planning process is to make sure that you set the date. Once the date is set, you want to make sure you make arrangements with your job, this is a common problem in the planning process. Now when you are making the date, you want to do some research. There are various websites where you can look at dates for crowd expectancy and weather. You want to choose dates that are going to have smaller crowds and when you won't have to worry about major weather issues.
Now after I chose the date, I decided to look into hotel options. You don't have to stay at a Disney resort to have the ultimate trip, in fact, we stayed at a decent hotel and only paid $30 a night. Once I found the hotel, I looked at upcoming pay checks and decided to pay for the hotel with an upcoming check. So when it came time for the trip, it was one less expense that we had to spend.
I did the same thing for the tickets as well. You can buy Disney tickets online, and what I did was bought them one at a time through the course of multiple paychecks. Dumping out 300 for three tickets in one day can be hurtful on your wallet. Separating out the cost, will also give you more spending money on the day that you are there.
Research the parks for tips, now this is what I did and I am going to share with you the tips that I found worked that allowed us to do Disney in a day.
Write out lists. I wrote out two separate lists, one for the trip to Orlando and one for inside the park.
You can get a copy of the menus for every place to eat inside Disney. This will help you decide where to eat and help you plan how much you want to spend.
Tips For Disney
Before we even went to Disney, we went to a Walmart near Disney and discovered that they have Disney sections with all the souvenirs you would find at Disney, only they are cheaper. I grabbed my daughter a shirt, a doll, and an autograph book and only spent $25.
Do the Mountains First. You are going to want to get into the park and fast pass a chance to meet Mickey or the princesses. This is important if you don't want to wait in line. Everyone can use a fast pass, they are free with your ticket. Once you have done this, you want to go to Splash Mountain and only wait 10 minutes, later in the day, it will be almost a 2 hour wait. From there you want to go to Thunder Mountain, which is right next to splash mountain.
By this time, you will be able to cash in on your fast pass, which is on your way to tomorrow land. Once you have met Mickey, you are going to want to fast pass space mountain. There is plenty to do in tomorrow land to kill time until space mountain. If you are traveling with kids too small, you want to send groups one at a time to space mountain so you can ride and someone can watch the kids.
The parades kick off at 3 from Frontierland. If you watch them Frontierland, you will be done watching the parade before everyone else, giving you first shot at other busy attractions.
Once you get through all this, the rest of the day can be spent traveling with ease. Don't be afraid to use your fast pass, and you can get through this great park in only one day.

Taking The First Easy Steps Into Healthy Living
We all want to live a healthier life, but sometimes it seems like healthy living is just exhausting. When we think about starting exercise and dieting and all that crazy stuff, not to mentioned everything we have to give up, we decide against getting into better shape. What most people don't realize is every step you take towards a healthy lifestyle matters. You can begin your journey to a healthy lifestyle by getting used to it first. Dip in your toes and test the water before you do a cannonball. I have decided to share my wisdom and information about how you can ease your way into a healthy lifestyle.
1.) Eat At Home! Now I am not saying that you have to begin by dieting and giving up foods you love, but the first step to healthy living is eating at home. Home cooked meals are delicious, better for you than fast food, and family dining has been said to have mental benefits as well.
2.) Drink More Water! They say water is the most important part of living healthy and that you should drink 8 glasses of water a day. Now I have tried this and lets just say it is impossible for me to drink that much water in a day. So don't have to completely stop drinking what you drink right away, but try introducing a few more glasses of water in for a day, baby steps is key.
3.) Walk A Little More! Walking is one of the best exercises you can do and walking a little bit more every day is a great way to get started with an exercise program.
4.) Control Your Stress! Most people don't know the role that stress plays on their health, but if you want to start a healthy lifestyle, you need to learn a healthy way to control stress!
5.) Cut back on toxins. Now the first step to healthy living is to get rid of toxins. Before you start body building and looking healthy, you have to give up the bad stuff you put into your body. The first step is to quit smoking, drinking, and any other bad things that could be killing you slowly.
Now if you want to live a healthy lifestyle and eventually want the perfect body, you may not be able to jump in with both feet, not everyone has that type of dedication. These baby steps can get you started by jumping into a healthy lifestyle slowly. The more you adjust, the easier the changes will be come.
