My husband has convinced me over the years to try it – I’ll be there and it will be ok. UGH – famous last words! Oh sure, I was fine and nothing happened when I recently rode Space Mountain….other than those around me lost their hearing! Read more

Disney With Special Needs: Taking a Break at the Disney Parks

Walt Disney World is a busy place so if you are traveling with someone with special needs it is always nice to know a couple of calm areas to take much needed breaks. When we travel to the parks with my brother (he has autism) just taking a few breaks throughout the day really helped keep him going. So, here are some calm areas that can be enjoyed at the Walt Disney World parks anytime of the year. Read more

Thrifty Thursday: What’s the Deal with Disney Pin Collecting?

One of the biggest budget-busters when it comes to Disney vacations are souvenirs….because there are just so darn many cute choices! And a lot of things that you (or your kids) will want are not cheap either, which means that giving in to “gottabuyit” means that you’re probably also giving in to spending more than you intended….and possibly lots more than you intended.

Wordless Wednesday: All Alone in the Parks


Are you looking for a great way to avoid the crowds? Set your alarms, and plan to be at the parks very early! Although you won’t be the only guest taking advantage of this time, it’s still fun to do! Not only does it get you first in line (if you walk briskly to the attraction of choice) but it also makes for the perfect picture taking opportunity! Bonus points if you make an early morning Advanced Dining Reservation at one of the in-park restaurants: empty parks for pictures PLUS a fun way to start your day!

Find out how the FREE services of a Disney World travel agent can make planning your Disney vacation simple and stress free!

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!
