This week, we travel around the world to visit each castle at Disney Parks and then we visit the only spa created by Disney, LaniWai at Aulani on O’ahu. Did you realize that Sleeping Beauty has more Disney castles than Cinderella? Or that LaniWai has the only hydrotherapy garden on O’ahu? Well, we cover all of that and the latest Disney news on this week’s episode.
