Not since 1971, when it first opened, has there been a construction project of this scale at Walt Disney World. Fantasyland is set to double in size and as we’ve come to expect from Disney, the transformation will be nothing short of magical. Last week, I had the honor of joining a small group of …
Recently I was invited to the opening of a new restaurant in Ottawa. Obviously, someone has finally taken note of my fine culinary skills *cough cough*. I’m kidding.
