You want to know why just about every Disney World planning tool you find, including the official app itself, includes a wait estimate feature? Because there are lines at Disney World. I know. I know. Shocker. In all seriousness, though, lines are something that we all have to contend with when we visit The World, and yet somehow it slips through the cracks when it comes to most people’s travel plans.
People will go to the effort of scouring menus and picking out what they want for every meal and snack to shave off some time when ordering and to populate elaborate expenditure spreadsheets, or track the number of steps between attractions to optimize when to stop for a bathroom break, yet they don’t even think about what they are going to do when they show up at a ride and it’s time to wait in line.
For some, this is not that big of a deal. Annoying? Sure. A time suck? Absolutely. But it isn’t going to cause any true issues. For those of us with special needs, however, the lines that are an unavoidable reality at Disney can be a much more challenging thing. Standing for long stretches, heat, being in close proximity to other people, being in closed spaces, looping music, and other issues can make these waits seem completely overwhelming and can take a good day to the dark place really fast.

It’s late August and tonight the Magic Kingdom will host the year’s first of the most spectacular event of the year, Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Oh yes, Halloween has arrived in Disney, and that means that it is fair game for everyone. Of course, there are some of us who have been salivating over Halloween decorations and hoarding fall candles since June, but when the Mickey jack-o’-lanterns make their appearance on the light posts, it is officially on.

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!
