The Blonde Diaries

I just received my two Walt Disney World Trivia books in the mail last week and have started reading/going through them.  I haven’t made it too far into either book but the few questions that I have read have given me some pretty interesting factoids about WDW.  At first, I bought the books thinking they’d be great for the plane trip down or while waiting for some of the shows like Finding Nemo: The Musical or Fantasmic to start but I have quickly found that the questions have become fun conversation pieces for Mike and I while we eat.

So to spread the Disney Magic around I thought I’d so a WDW Trivia Series using some of the questions from the books I have bought and creating my own based on things I learn from newsletters, podcasts, and Disney Message Boards.  Now to keep answers hidden until you answer you will have to go to the Disney Trivia Answers Page to get the correct answer and the tidbit.  No need to spoil the questions with answers right below

So while I get my Answers Page going and pick my first few questions, bookmark my blog/rss feed it and get excited!

I thought this would be a fun series to start. I hope you enjoy it as I know Mike and I have been thoroughly enjoying our new books and reading the weekly Disney Insider emails from Disney. To keep things simple I am going to pick between 3 and 5 trivia questions to post and then you can find the answers on the Disney Trivia Answers Page. Let’s do some easy ones this week to start us off and then we can move to harder ones as we get better about this.
