The Magic Returns to the Village
We are thrilled to announce that nearly 10 months from the day that we said goodbye to our last wish family in March, we will be getting back to our mission of spreading joy and creating the happiness that inspires hope for critically ill children and their families by reopening our beloved Village beginning on January 17, 2021.

As I mentioned Linda and I got tickets for the Night of a Million Lights and here are some of the pics...

One of our favorites and you won't regret it, but it is a little noisy if crowded since the acoustics aren't the best.

Oh and even if you use a travel agent such as myself you still have control, we just do the tedious work of sitting on the phone with Disney for you. Yes any changes or payments have to go through us after we book for you but we work for you. At least I do. I try to respond to all of my clients in as quick of a timeframe as possible. 

Local Florida Union Says Some Workers Were Recalled
It’s nice to deliver some good news on Christmas Weekend.
And we’re pleased to post that a local union says things are looking just a little better in Orlando.

I haven't seen this mentioned.  The OSBORNE LIGHTS went to GKTW and they have been doing a Fund Raiser. It has not been advertised on TV or anywhere else that we have seen, but we just got tickets for the last day. Just found out from one of the volunteers who live in our park. They are limiting attendance and masks are required.  Hope to post pics after we tour.
The Holidays Like Never Before

Celebrate the splendor of the season with us at our newest, sparkliest event: Night of a Million Lights!https://www.gktw.org/lights/

I don't think it has anything to do with "HOW" to reopen it's all because of the diminished customer base.  Disney still has many on property restaurants closed. Just like at the airports and malls, many restaurants/food courts are not open since there is not the necessary business to operate without a loss..   

Not sure how long this will stay up.. Not for the little ones.

Update..From YAHOO
DL chaos continues.
We absolutely reject the suggestion that reopening the Disneyland Resort is incompatible with a ‘health-first’ approach,” Disney Parks Chief Medical Officer Pamela Hymel said in a statement. “The fact is, that since March we have taken a robust science-based approach to responsibly reopening our parks and resorts across the globe.”

And absolutely STUPID....

Golf carts are available for pickup at 1:00 PM and must be returned by 11:00 AM on the return date.  $62.91 a day

People aren't traveling. due to COVID, it has nothing to do with WDW prices.  DIS took a big financial hit because DL is still closed and DCL is shutdown as well.  

From what I understand the "FAX REQUEST" still works.   407-824-3508
