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!

Goofy’s Barnstormer holds a special place in our family’s hearts. My husband and I are both avid roller coaster fans – when we used to come to Disney pre-kid, we would literally go from park to park and just ride the coasters and thrill rides. Over and over. Until we couldn’t take any more. It was just one way we enjoyed the magic. We hoped that when we had kids, our children would love roller coasters too (especially since we were both terrified as children!). Well, The Barnstormer has officially now been the first roller coaster ride for both of our children, and I’m happy to say, to rave reviews! Read more
I have shared in the past that I am a certifiable Ride Wimp. And apparently, as I have found out since sharing my guilty little secret, there are more than a few of us out there…..TONS as a matter of fact. 🙂 Who knew?
But it’s not like I am *no* fun at all at Disney World. I may be a Ride Wimp, but I can get some thrills at Disney World too. Because really, just because one is a Ride Wimp, doesn’t mean that we can’t have some excitement too: we’re not all slow, boring, “Wow-its-a-small-world-rocks” kind of people! Read more
