"If I can dream it, then I can do it; I've got my girls with me, there's nothing to it," Fifth Harmony sang in their official Barbie anthem, 'Anything Is Possible.' Unfortunately, that didn't turn out to be true for attendees of Barbie Dream Fest, which is currently running in Fort Lauderdale, FL, from March 27-29.

The space has been transformed into what feels like a playful fair straight out of the show. Bright colors, whimsical decorations, and Bluey-themed details immediately set the tone.

Originally called Treasure Island, it opened on April 8, 1974, three years after Walt Disney World first welcomed visitors. The theme was based on the 1950 Disney pirate adventure film "Treasure Island," with a wrecked ship visible on the shore. Its name was changed to Discovery Island in the late 1970s, and the 11.5-acre nature preserve-accessible by boat-operated until April 8, 1999.

This isn't just about replicating the animation; it's about emulating the creators' intent. To bridge the gap between a CGI snowman and reality, the team had to invent new technologies in the field of legged robotics—cramming a bizarre skeleton into an incredibly tight space—and rely on deep reinforcement learning so the machine didn't face-plant or literally melt its own hardware.

Located within Walt Disney World, this shopping, dining, and entertainment district is worth checking out during your next trip to the resort.

A man fell asleep underneath an oak tree in Placerita Canyon, in what's now the Newhall area of Santa Clarita. As he slept, he dreamed of finding gold. When Francisco López awoke, he pulled up wild onions growing nearby and discovered gold clinging to their roots. The legend is real - or at least parts of it. We'll never know if López really dreamed of gold, but we know he found it and that it was the first recorded discovery of gold in the state.

In the months when avoiding heat and crowds is a priority, it's best to arrive early, stay late, and avoid being outdoors during the hottest hours of the day. When it's cold, it's kind of the opposite. We focused on the indoor attractions and spots with indoor queues in the morning. At 11 a.m., we searched for opportunities to be in the brisk afternoon air and lovely sunshine.

Josh D'Amaro appears to be the frontrunner in the race to be Disney's next CEO, and the Mouse House's latest quarterly earnings showed why. Disney's experiences business, which D'Amaro oversees, is the backbone of a company that's being weighed down by the struggling pay-TV business and isn't yet lifted up by its streaming profits. And when that part of the business sneezes, the stock catches a cold.

If you're looking for a tropical getaway, Germany likely doesn't come to mind. But about 45 miles south of Berlin, you'll find an unexpected vacation destination. Here, visitors can lounge on sandy beaches in balmy temperatures and splash about in warm waters, even in the dead of winter. The secret? It's all indoors. Housed inside a former airship hangar, Tropical Islands is a beach-themed water park that needs to be seen to be believed.

Because it's so immersive and theatrical, it's ideal for keeping kids entertained without requiring parents to plan every second of the day (which, frankly, already makes it feel like a win). This is not a cruise where you sit by the pool while your kids complain they are bored. It is a cruise where they disappear into kids' clubs, beg to stay up late for shows, and talk about the Hydra puppets and Cruella de Vil long after you are home.
