On Thursday, Eli and I paid a visit to Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. This brought back a lot of memories, as I have attended several Business Conventions at this resort over the years. And, after speaking with one of the Cast Members, I now know why this particular group always held their events here. Coronado Springs is actually famous for their Convention Center!

Hey, I … [Read more...]
