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.

Cast Member’s Corner: Sleepover in the Parks Anyone?

Disney is full of magic day in and day out.  As a Cast Member I loved being a part of the magic for the guests.  But there is some magic that the guests just cannot experience, magic that only the Cast Members get to witness.  As much as I loved working with guests during park hours, some of my favorite times at work were park opening and park closing.  It’s something about the serenity the park has just before the guests’ arrival and once they’ve all gone off to bed.  Read more

Hurricane Headed to Disney World? Here’s What You Should Know

It is inevitable during the late summer and early fall months, as tropical storms and hurricanes begin to form in the tropics, that those who have Disney vacations planned will start watching weather.com obsessively, hoping that their vacation plans are not disrupted by an unwelcome stormy visitor.
