Are Disney Genie and Genie+ Helping Overlooked Attractions?
Walt Disney World is filled with spaces and attractions which are generally overlooked. Overlooked attractions are rides and experiences which normally have little or no wait, and a less experienced visitor may be unaware of their presence.

Don’t get me started on why three-piece suits should … In Defense of the Glorious Fanny Pack
