Oh what a magical day .... even in the rain!
On my most recent trip to Walt Disney World, I checked off an important Disney Bucket List item - the four park challenge!

✨️I attended all four parks in one day
✨️My personal rules included a meal and a ride in each park
✨️ I traveled on FIVE modes of transportation

I had an amazing time, learned a few things about a rainy day in the parks, and ate all new foods!

🏰 If you want to see all four parks (with substantially more time to enjoy the magic in each park) - there is currently a promo for travel through September with 4 single park tickets for only $396! Combined with some awesome rates this summer, it's a great trip.

Hey Disney - tell me a story!
Did you know, Disney resort rooms now come equipped with a special Alexa to make the time in your room more magical. Set alarms, listen to soundscapes, tell jokes, and hear stories. Worry not moms and dads, you can easily turn off the microphone (or unplug) to keep kiddos from keeping you up all night.

New baby on the Savanna! Hoping I catch a peek of her on my next Safari ❤️🐘

Celebrating Mardi Gras in a way I hope would make Princess Tiana proud - Chicken and sausage gumbo (I am allergic to shellfish), okra and tomatoes, and a homemade king cake!! Swipe right to see the evolution of my Roux.

The famous words from the Super Bowl MVP! Did you know, the trip will change between Walt Disney World in Florida and Disneyland in California typically depending on which is closer to where the game was played? This week, the MVP will head to Disney to lead the parade and celebrate with family in the most magical way!

Had an amazing night at the Grand Ole Opry! Carter Faith, Old Crow Medicine Show, and (a newfound favorite) the Dead South. Even heard the original songwriter perform The Gambler!!

One of my core Disney memories was my first trip to Disney World and at 1900 Park Fare I met the practically perfect Mary Poppins! So excited to see this reopened and create new memories there. Remember, dining opens 60 days out from a Disney Resort Vacation so be sure to book early to snag a seat at this coveted dining location!!

🎠✨ 1900 Park Fare reopens at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa on April 10! When this iconic restaurant reopens, it will feature returning guest favorites along with new character greetings, a refreshed dining room and other special touches. Reservations open on March 5: http://di.sn/6185VpUgz

Once a year, the skyliner takes a little break to make sure it is in tip-top shape. Unfortunately, that means my favorite mode of transportation is down this week. Disney will still get you where you need to go with extra busses added to the schedule while it's down!

🚨Friendly Reminder for Disney Guests this upcoming week: The Disney Skyliner will be closed temporarily for refurbishment from January 16th - January 21st. Bus transportation will be available for all guests staying at a skyliner resort. 🚡

🚨Disney Skyliner service to & from the Riviera Resort & International Gateway (EPCOT) will remain closed until January 27th.

Merry Christmas Eve! Thinking back to this magical moment at the Grand Floridian .... the whole building smells like gingerbread, there are trees and decorations everywhere celebrating the 12 days of Christmas, and a pianist playing holiday music. I stopped to listen and he asked what song I'd like to hear so I requested one of my favorites - the little drummer boy. A magical memory for sure!

It's Monday morning and pre-coffee I'm feeling a little Grinch-y ... thankfully, a little cocoa and my heart grows likidty split! Only 7 days until Christmas so make sure you get your shopping done and make it to the post office to get your mail sorted on time (swipe right to see the mailroom!)

A lot of my holiday content focuses on Christmas because that is what I grew up with. EPCOT's World Showcase features holiday traditions around the world such as Mariachi music in Mexico, La Befana in Italy, and the Daruma doll in Japan. Strolling around the world, you have an opportunity to learn about holiday traditions your family may not celebrate each year and appreciate classic holiday cuisine (because we all know food brings us all together). The smoked salmon Latke near the Hanukkah storyteller was one of the best things I've had this holiday season!

The Boardwalk might just be my favorite resort on property! It is nostalgic and has the BEST coastal scent. Combine that with the festive Gingerbread scent and I'm just in heaven. Swipe right to see some tiny hidden friends!

Sunday in Orlando then Friday in Vegas! It's been a whirlwind week where I've spent time in 3 states and 3 time zones but I wouldn't have it any other way.
