Mad for the Mouse

Do you “Whistle while you work?” Do you find that when you wish upon a star your dreams come true? Or perhaps you are hoping that someday your prince will come. Do you long to be covered in pixie dust? If you have said yes to all of these, then chances are you are a Mousejunkie.
What is a Mousejunkie? This is a person totally immersed in the magic of Disney; a person who makes yearly (or more) treks to Disneyworld or Disneyland. We have a new book that is the best I have read on the Disney experience. It’s called appropriately enough Mousejunkies: Tips, Tales, and Tricks for a Disneyworld Fix by Bill Burke. While other guide books (i.e. Fodor’s and Mobile Travel Guides) give general information, this is the first book I have found that keeps it real. For example, Fodor’s and Mobile will say the temperature will be in the 90 degree range so wear light, loose clothing. Mousejunkies tells you that in August you will melt. They explain pros and cons of staying on property versus off, fastpasses, the various dining plans, and much more. In fact in just about a week I’ll be headed to see Mickey myself, so if you have time before then, stop by to wish me a supercalifragilisticexpalidocious time!
