Why is Marlie so happy today? She just booked her first trip to Disney! Let’s talk about taking littles to Disney.
1. “But they will never remember it!” You will. Do you skip special things at home like the pumpkin patch because they won’t remember? No. You go! Make those memories.
2. Under 3 is free! Free admission and free character and buffet dining.
3. Baby care centers in every park provide quiet areas to escape for feeding and changing.
4. There are many rides for baby! From the Walt Disney Railroad to Dumbo there are many rides with no height requirement.
5. For the rides baby has to skip, the Rider Switch option provides an opportunity for parents to ride all of their favorites without having to wait in line twice.
6. Kids eat, sleep, and play all day. Might as well eat, sleep, and play at Disney!

One of my favorite things to do at Disney is see how many forms of transportation I can take, and the Skyliner is one of my favorites! 😄 Five years old! Happy birthday!

For my Fort Mill Families: the Fort Mill School District just approved the 2025-2026 school calendar. You now have 2 full weeks to plan a vacation during October and February. This is a time to travel that is less expensive and less crowds. It is not too early to book! Let's chat and find the best vacation for your interests, needs and budget! Personally, we will be checking out Walt Disney World (shocking) because we have never experienced the fall there or Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.

Don't live in Fort Mill? It's always a smart idea to look at your school calendar and get planning early. 📧 [email protected].

Love a good review! I had the honor of helping one of my former students and her mom plan a trip to celebrate her COLLEGE graduation! What special mother daughter time for them. Disneyland Paris and European cruise- how fun!!! My favorite part of this job is watching the memories families make together. 💕

“I’d like to give a big Shout Out to Journeys by Olivia, Olivia Williams, for being SO awesome in planning this Great Big Adventure for me and my Girl! From plane to train to cruise and all in between, Olivia got it done!“

This past weekend we escaped to Disney's Hilton Head resort for a 5th anniversary baby-moon trip. 😀 This was our first visit to this resort, and of course, we loved it! There were little Disney touches everywhere and the cast member service was top notch! (Shoutout to , a former student of mine that is now a Guest Experience Manager at the resort.) We enjoyed the Big Dipper Pool and the activities that were offered as well as the Beach House pool. Also indulged in some dole whip and Mickey ice cream bars. 😋 A wonderful, relaxed location for my Disney loving peeps!

Happy Earth Day! And happy birthday, Animal Kingdom! 🎂 🌎

Earth Day
April 22, 1998:
Disney World's $800 million theme park Animal Kingdom opens in, Florida with 5 attractions, 9 exhibits, 12 live entertainment shows, 11 merchandise locations, and 8 food locations. It is the fourth theme park on Walt Disney World property.

Spanning 500 acres, Disney's Animal Kingdom (or DAK) is billed as "a new species of theme park." Two of the three major "lands" - Africa & DinoLand U.S.A. - open on this date, Asia will open in early 1999.

An elaborate grand-opening ceremony is attended by a crowd of 2,000, with primatologist Jane Goodall, Ph.D. and CEO Michael Eisner.

There are so many people in line on this opening day that officials open the gates at 6 a.m., instead of the posted 7 a.m. The first guests through the gate are Brenda Herr of St. Petersburg, Florida, her husband, Damon Chepren and their son, Devon, who slept in their car the night before! The family will receive a lifetime pass to Walt Disney theme parks worldwide.

Seventy-five minutes after opening, the park reached its capacity and the gates are closed again until early afternoon.

"This park in fantastic. My uncle would have been proud.'' -Roy Disney, nephew of the late Walt Disney

3. Time savings
