Wordless Wednesday: Seeing for Yourself

Karen Disney Fun, Wordless Wednesday , , 0 Comment

I think this picture speaks for itself. It was taken in China at Epcot’s World Showcase. On your next vacation to Walt Disney World, remember to have as many experiences as possible! Regardless of what you may have heard from others. It’s always good to at least check out attractions once that you may have not in the past!

Karen grew up in the Boston area and traveled to Disney World many times with her parents and sister. Always staying at the Fort Wilderness Cabins gave the trips a feeling of a home away from home. It also started the tradition of attending the Hoop Dee Doo Review on each trip! Somehow that show sparked her interest in the Disney College Program. Which she did in the fall of 2002, working as a hostess @ Captain Jacks in Downtown Disney. Now as an adult, Karen finds herself traveling to the parks on a yearly basis! Photography has always been a hobby of Karen’s, but over the past few years it has become her passion. It’s even taken her to her favorite place! The Make a Wish Foundation sent a family to Disney for a week and Karen was lucky enough to be their photographer of choice! She got to tag along and photograph their memories being made. She hopes to get that experience again someday! You can find more of Karen’s photography on her site www.KPportraits.com.

Disney Gift Giving: Debbie’s Wish List

Debbie Disney Fun, Disney Gift Giving , , , 0 Comment

With the holidays around the corner, we at The Affordable Mouse, of course, have a few Disney things on our Christmas wish lists….and we thought it might be fun to share what we’re wishing for with you! Hope you enjoy….and maybe get some good ideas for your lists! 🙂

It’s that time of year when you start thinking about that perfect gift.  It will be either the perfect gift for a special loved one or perhaps something perfect that you are hoping to receive.  While we all wish we could hop a plane or in the car for a quick trip to holiday shop at Walt Disney World, sometimes that is not practical.  After the closure of the Disney Stores in many major cities, like it did here in Chattanooga, I can’t just run over the mall to see the latest Disney has to offer either.  Thanks to the internet, it is so much easier to find those Disney gifts everyone wants without the trip expense.

Thrifty Thursday: The Magnificent Gingerbread House at the Grand Floridian

Brenda Affordable Disney Vacations, Christmas Holidays, Saving Money at Disney World, Thrifty Thursday, What to Do at Disney World , , , , 0 Comment

During the holiday season, it is easy to find loads of FREE things to do at the Walt Disney World Resort. No one decorates on the level of Disney anywhere else and you are totally immersed in the spirit of holiday cheer. One prime example of decorating in Disney style is the Gingerbread House at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.

This is a must-see for my family during every trip. We have had our Christmas cards taken in front of this magnificent house and we, in fact, take a family picture in front of it during every visit. The aroma is awesome; even for someone who doesn’t like the taste of gingerbread the scent screams holiday magic. It is a beautiful, and completely edible, masterpiece. Read more
