It’s also a cool opportunity to learn about things happening behind the curtain!

By 2 Comments

So, we don’t want to brag or anything, but we’d like to think that Disney World listens to us when we have a valid complaint.

We also raised a bit of a fuss over the waffles at Sleepy Hollow when they switched from regular waffles to Mickey waffles. Now, we normally love Mickey-shaped food, but the new waffles did NOT stand up. But, hey, Disney changed those back to round waffles. Well, there’s another treat in Disney World that we think Disney listened to us about, and we’re HAPPY they did!
