REVIEW: Avengers: Endgame, a Conclusion 11 Years in the Making

Before this review gets started, I’ll say that this review, like all of my others, contains NO SPOILERS, so read away with no worries of ruining the story. These are merely my lasting impressions. About a month ago, I wrote a pretty negative review about Captain Marvel. One of the biggest ... Read More

REVIEW: Disneynature Penguins – An Icy Tale

Another guest reviewer on Zannaland, this time, good ol' Otisney (aka my husband, Scott). He took Gio to see the screening of Penguins last weekend. As much as I loooove animals of all kinds, Born in China really did me in for nature movies. Sorry Disney! I don't think I could even get myself ... Read More

The EVERYTHING IS AWESOME Guide to LEGOLAND Florida’s LEGO Movie World

Follow the rainbows to FUN! It is no secret that I LOVE LEGOLAND. It may be more of a secret that I love all things 80's, from my Lisa Frank stickers to rainbows and unicorns and brightly colored everything. That's not so much a secret as it is just something a normal woman my age might not ... Read More

REVIEW: Burton’s Dumbo Soars Higher than Ever

There’s no question that the original 1941 release of Dumbo is a landmark animation release. It’s truly a triumph of the techniques of the time that come together to cement a piece of Disney history unlike any other. Respecting a classic... For one reason or another, I was not very excited for ... Read More

  • 💚💙The insta-famous Blue Milk/Green Milk combo! If you can’t decide which to try of these frozen, non-dairy concoctions, try both (and get an extra cup if you want to mix them like above!) which would make Aunt Beru and Luke Skywalker proud...I think? 😆 . 💙The blue milk is a blend of coconut and rice milks with flavors or dragon fruit, pineapple, lime, and watermelon. To me, this tasted like a Hawaiian air freshener smells...or Fruit Stripe gum haha. . 💚The green milk is also coconut and rice milks with mandarin orange, passion fruit, grapefruit, and orange blossom. To me, this one was like a floor cleaner smells 😬 maybe it was the grapefruit, I dunno, but this one was even less appealing to me. . Both of these come in alcoholic versions, the blue adds Bacardi Rum and the green adds Corazon Blanco tequila. I tried the blue with alcohol Saturday and you can’t really taste much. (thanks to @vegandisneyfood for these descriptions check site her out!) . My recommendations, if you aren’t a big fruity flavored person (which normally I am!) is maybe have a sip of a friends just to say you’ve tried it haha. And if you’re looking for alcoholic options, I’d stick with Oga’s Cantina which will be a better bang for your buck. . You can also get a light up souvenir sipper so you can carry your favorite around with you if you are a fan of these drinks. Scroll to see prices and the sipper! . Have you tried either? What did you think and which is your favorite? Let me know in the comments below!
  • So nice to finally see some blue skies and #BrightSuns in #Batuu yesterday! Had an amazing time drinking and eating and exploring with @vegandisneyfood (@amandatinney), @mousesteps Denise and @mousestepsweekly Jeff! I also bumped into so many old twitter pals I haven’t seen in ages @heatherw25, @mrbrettyoung, @disdug, had a @schmooferino sighting, @ryno1185 and I shared our love for Ewoks, and ran into (almost literally) @ashleyeckstein from @heruniverse too! (And probably more I’m forgetting) Such a fun day at #GalaxysEdge 💫🌔✨ . I’m trying to decide if I prefer Batuu in the day or night...which is your favorite so far? #TilTheSpire!
  • My favorite section of #Batuu was the Market area. In all of the previews and presentations I’d seen of Galaxy’s Edge, this seemed like the most unique and intriguing, and it did not disappoint. The amount of detail that is in this small section is mind-boggling. It is open-air and HOT, even at night but that only adds to the authenticity of the space. I can’t wait to go back and explore more. Here are a few photos just of the top of the marketplace (I love lighting shots what can I say) as well as a peek at Ronto Roasters, the area behind the market and the entrance to the market at night.
  • I know Galaxy’s Edge has been covered far and wide, and even tho I am an original movie fan, I wasn’t *incredibly* excited to see this new land. However - I was really blown away by the the details. Honestly, it didn’t matter to me that it was Star Wars, but the fact that I had that vague familiarity made it seem more comfortable and welcoming. Anyway, I’ll have a blog post up soon with my thoughts but I just wanted to share some of my nighttime photos. ✨Rising Moons! 🌕

  • Sci-fi Dine-in Theater has always been a favorite in our family. The menu has changed many times over the years, but the atmosphere is always a wonderful time capsule and I hope it never changes. 👽🤖🍿🚙🎬 . Have you been to Sci-fi? What’s your favorite part? The food? The movies on screen?
