Dare to Dream: Disney on Ice
We were very fortunate to see the opening night of the latest Disney on Ice show – Dare to Dream, and I have to say, I think this one was the best one yet. The skating was spectacular and having three short stories to watch was more attention getting for short attention span kids […]
