During my recent visit to Disney World my boyfriend and I were privileged enough to get a sneak peek at the New Fantasyland. We were enjoying the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party when we thought we would stop by and see if there were holding viewings. They said that they probably would start holding some previews once the actual party started. While we were deciding what to do, wait around or go on more rides, a manager came over. He asked us how many were in our party and after finding another couple told us to follow him. He directed us straight over to Maurice’s Cottage. He said we would be allowed to see all of the New Fantasyland but would have to start at the cottage. I was encouraged to take as many pictures as I wanted. Read more

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: Cast Member Conversations
Having just been in Disney I’m having such a hard time deciding what to write, besides having the post-Disney blues. After warring with myself for quite awhile I figured I would share some information I attained while on vacation. In the past I have written about conversing with the Cast Members, it never disappoints. Between kind-hearted teasing about someone’s “First Visit Again” pin to their knowledge of the parks and what is going on, I made conversation with several Cast Members while waiting in lines and learned some fun new things.
