This has been quite a day! We broke into teams for a Wild Goose Chase scavenger hunt this morning which was so much fun! We even got a little behind the scenes time in the Men in Black attraction! After lunch, we enjoyed some time in Islands of Adventure before heading to the nighttime closing event at Volcano Bay.

This has been such a great event and I have learned so much. Thank you, !! 🌎 ✨

So far, the Universal U-Preferred Symposium has been incredible! I learned so much in our session today, including about what we will see in Epic Universe!! I also had a little fun there too. 😉 I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!

Reach out when you are ready for your next adventure!

✨ I took a little time to focus on my family over the holiday weekend. Now I wanted to take a little time to say THANK YOU to everyone who has supported my small business!

When you support a small business, you aren’t just supporting a business. You are supporting their family. Without any additional cost to you, booking your trip through me supports my business and my family. You are supporting my kids’ love of musical theatre and their big future dreams. You are supporting my ability to provide them with what they need to thrive. They are the reason for it all.

I appreciate each and every one of you! I hope that you all had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend with your families and I hope you take a moment to take in some of the magic of this holiday season! ✨

Have you made Christmas travel plans yet? It’s not too late to get in on the magic over at Universal Orlando! There is so much Grinchmas fun to be had over in Suess Landing. The decorations over in the Wizarding World add a little extra sparkle and magic to the already magical world. And the holiday parade is next level!

Let me know if you want to book your holiday trip! ✨🎄

I’m shopping a possible Christmas cruise for 2025. Anyone want to join us? This one sails to both of the Disney private islands - Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point!! ✨🚢🎄🏝️

Message me if you need a Very Merrytime sailing in your future! Since it’s more than a year away, the prices are still reasonable and there’s plenty of time to pay it off! (Or if it’s this year you would like, we can discuss those options as well!)

Want to feel like you are in the Wizarding World in Tennessee? Welcome to Sewanee: the University of the South. 😁

I went off on a little side quest this week for the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees but I still feel like I need my wand. (Not pictured: me wearing my academic gown that looks very much like wizard robes 😉)

Volcano Bay never disappoints!! If you aren’t a fan of water parks, you might want to still give Volcano Bay a chance. It’s a full theme park that just happens to have only water rides. 😆 It’s so fun!! ✨🌋❤️

Universal Orlando brings out the magical side in us. ✨

💙 Happy Son’s Day to my favorite little guy! He has the biggest imagination of anyone I’ve ever met and is always in character! I’m excited to be on our way to another vacation filled with make believe with him!!

💕Happy Daughter’s Day to my best girl! She’s always up for adventure and is the very best travel companion! Life would be so very boring without her!!

In a digital world with the ability to book our own trips on a website, why should you have me book your trip instead? The simple answer is that you are paying the same price regardless, which means that you are paying for a travel agent even if you don’t use one. So why not get the benefits for which you are paying?

Even if you are a Disney or Universal pro and don’t need the planning help, letting me book for you will give you the same vacation package and cost, while also supporting my small business.

If you do need help and guidance, I am always here to help any of my clients who choose to book through me. And if anything needs to be changed or if any problems arise, you can avoid the long call center wait times by letting me handle it for you.

And did I mention that it’s no additional cost to you?!

Why choose the Disney Magic when planning your next cruise?

✨It’s Walt’s ship! Ok, he wasn’t alive when Disney launched Disney Cruise Line. However, Walt loved cruising and would have absolutely supported the venture into cruise ships. Since this ship is the first in the Disney Cruise Line fleet, it stands as a tribute to Walt. From the Walt Disney Theatre, where you can see first class Broadway-style shows, to photos of Walt and Lillian on the deck of a cruise ship with a Mickey Mouse toy in hand in the staterooms, to the art deco decor, Walt feels very much alive onboard the inaugural ship.

❤️ If you are a fan of Disneyland for its nostalgia and history, you will love the same quality of the Disney Magic.

⭐️ Additional bonus, as the smallest of the ships, it is very easy to get around! I had no issues making a quick trip to my room when I needed. And even with the smaller size, there was still more than enough to do!!

🥰 If I’m honest, I didn’t think I’d be a fan of the Disney Magic after sailing on the brand new Disney Wish in July, but the Disney Magic has won me over! Just as its name suggests, it is filled with Disney Magic.

🚢 Are you thinking about a Disney Cruise? Message me and let’s talk about which of the ships and sailings would be perfect for your family!
