I want you to imagine standing on the edge of Main Street U.S.A on a sweltering August night. You have been walking for what seems like endless hours in the humidity filled Florida sun. You’re anxiously awaiting for the Disney Main Street Electrical Parade to begin, when your generous cousin walks up behind you with a unmarked cup and straw and says “Here try this”. You take a sip of what can only be described as cold tropical heaven. The sweet tangy flavor of pineapple races to your brain as you begin to process something special.

That’s exactly what happened to me. I turned and asked him what I was drinking. He said “It’s a Dole Whip Float, they are famous”. I was immediately hooked on what I would later find out was almost as iconic as the Mouse himself. OK maybe not but it sounded good right? Read more

Wordless Wednesday: Hollywood Scoops!

What’s better than ice cream, people watching and being in Disney World?

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.
