Wordless Wednesday: Disney Snacks!

One of the best things about a Disney World vacation, is all of the yummy treats available. For some reason cupcakes taste even better when you’re strolling through the park. If your on the Disney Dining Plan this yummy treat will only cost you 1 snack credit!

Find out how the FREE services of a Disney World travel agent can make planning your Disney vacation simple and stress-free! And during the month of December, YOUR vacation can help one of 8 wonderful charities! Ask me how!

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: A Very Merry Holiday Season To You

As many of you know whether having read about, seen, or only imagined, Disney goes all out for the winter holiday season.  From throwing parties, decorating the entire property, and even firework displays, the parks, resorts, characters, and cast members get into the holiday spirit and really know how to have a good time.  As many of my fellow Affordable Mouse writers have written about and shown you pictures of, Disney decorates everything.  From garland and lights, to gingerbread creations.  The characters get into their holiday attire and winter gear.  Think Mickey in a top hat and Minnie in her best dress.  Even the princesses don their cloaks and shawls.  Nothing is left untouched to give every guest the feeling of the winter season even if it is still in the 80-degree weather.
