Feeling thankful ~ for my 2 new military families this week! I’ve learned so much about the Disney Armed Forces Salute – offering qualified service members (or their spouse) both discounted theme park tickets (up to 6, or more if your immediate family is larger) and outstanding discounts on up to 3 rooms @ the Disney Resorts (campsites not included).

I also wanted to share more about the Magic Kingdom Flag Retreat Ceremony that takes place every day @ 5pm. I read about it long ago; however in all our trips to WDW, we had never made it to one. Thankfully, this last trip Jay & I took in Oct, we just happen to be walking in for Mickey’s Halloween Party and it was starting. The ceremony is incredibly moving; and, I couldn’t hold back tears while watching and hearing them lower our flag. It’s now a highlight and something I would recommend for every family to witness! 

For more details I’ll let this beautiful post, complete with pictures from "Uncle" Bob Elsie, fill you in. However, please note you can no longer sign up for this at City Hall, the veteran participant is now selected at random by the Magic Kingdom Entertainment Department.


Wishing you a magical Sunday ~ Christine
