If vacation means indulging in sinfully delish fast food 🍟, have you ever thought about a Disney Cruise? Absolutely, Disney Cruise Line is all about value, relaxation, and fun, but it’s also about the FOOOOOD 🌮—and most of it is included in the cruise fare. Feel like some pizza at 11? No problem 🍕. Got a hankering for a burger to hold you over until dinner? It’s yours 🍔. Don’t feel like sitting in a dining room? Grab a quick bite and eat on the deck 🌊. And it’s not just burgers and fries either! Each ship has its own unique offerings (BBQ, salads, wraps) 🌯, but the variety is there across the fleet. Splurge until your heart’s and belly’s content without a surprise credit card bill when you get home! ✨

Who can say no to a great burger and fries? And don't vacation calories NOT COUNT? 😉

So if you’ve been to the parks and are starting to plan a vacation for next year, take a look at a Disney cruise. I’m happy to help you sort through the details 🛳️. For now, what “fast food” item do you rarely say NO to? 🍔🌭

✨💭✨ Let’s daydream for a quick sec... The air is filled with the combined aroma of fresh popcorn 🍿 and peppermint, 🎶holiday music is playing as you make your way through the parks surrounded by twinkling lights, festive decor ☃️, and of course ALL the seasonal snacks🧁! Boy, does that iconic 🏰 Disneyland charm hit just a bit different (in the best way) from Walt Disney World at the holidays. There’s just something about Christmastime that makes our hearts ache a little for the past, and Disneyland somehow (magically) exudes an air of nostalgia while simultaneously feeling brand new! ✨

I love seeing the holiday parade and lights on the castle. It's a great way to get into the holiday spirit for sure!

If you’ve been thinking about making the trek out west to see Walt’s original park, there’s no better time than the holiday season 🌟. Festivities kick off today, but it’s never too early to start dreaming about (and planning) for next year! I adore Disneyland and would LOVE to help you finally get there—just give me a call ‪☎ 717-850-3436‬ or send me a message. 🎄🏰✨

Pickles aren’t just for sandwiches; they’re a Christmas tradition too! 🥒 In Germany, families hide a pickle ornament on their Christmas tree 🎄. The first person to find it on Christmas morning gets an extra present from Old Saint Nick 🎅. What a fun way to get everyone to take a good look at all the ornaments on the tree while adding a little extra pixie dust ✨ to the holiday festivities!

Although we have not done this YET we do have a pickle Christmas ornament and I think we might try this!

Stop by EPCOT’s Germany pavilion to learn more about this fun, quirky tradition and maybe snag your own pickle ornament as a fun souvenir of your trip or as a gag gift for the pickle-obsessed person in your life 🥒😂. I think we all have one of those! Anyone take part in this tradition? 🎄

💜💛💚🎊 Love the idea of partying during Mardi Gras but not quite up for the authentic (ok, WILD) New Orleans experience? Check out Universal Mardi Gras: International Flavors of Carnaval at Universal Orlando Resort! It’s all the fun of the celebration—delicious food 🍤, festive drinks 🍹, live music 🎶, vibrant parades 🎭, and ALL the beads—within the safety of the Universal Orlando bubble. 🎉✨

We just did Mardi Gras at Universal this past February and it was AMAZING!!! I loved seeing all the floats and grabbing some beads all while in a completely safe and stress free environment. We did Mardi Gras in New Orleans one year and although it was a lot of fun there were WAAAAY too many people and the pushing to get nearest to the floats was a little overwhelming.

If controlled chaos is more your Mardi Gras vibe, let’s talk about getting you booked for this festive street party that runs from February 1st-March 30th! Give me a call ‪☎ 717-850-3436‬ or send me a message 🎉✨

Alright, time to set the record straight—Universal Studios Orlando is NOT stuck in 1985, and it’s way more than just thrill rides and Butterbeer 🍺. If you’re a die-hard Disney fan, you might have some opinions about Universal, but I’m here to bust some myths 💥:

It’s Just About Thrill Rides – Universal has some awesome thrill rides 🎢, but it also offers immersive attractions for all ages. From The Wizarding World of Harry Potter 🪄 to DreamWorks Land and so many experiences in between, it’s a family-friendly destination!

It’s Not as Immersive – Time to take another look 👀 at Universal if this is what you think. And I’m not even talking about the upcoming Epic Universe park!

It’s Just for Teens and Adults – This is just a hard no 🚫. With lands and attractions featuring Trolls, Kung-Fu Panda, Scooby Doo, Despicable Me, and Dr. Seuss, the littles will know they are where they belong too 🎉.

Universal is a great place to visit and enjoy. Quite frequently they are running awesome specials!

If you’re thinking about giving Universal a try, I’d love to help you plan it out! Give me a call ‪☎ 717-850-3436‬ or send me a message.

Heroes Work Here! This Veterans Day, let’s take a moment to honor the incredible contributions of our U.S. military service members—and shine a light on Disney’s Heroes Work Here program 🇺🇸✨.

Since 2012, Disney has hired thousands of veterans, offering jobs, support, and resources to help them successfully transition into civilian careers. Keep an eye out for markers like this one in EPCOT—a tribute to Disney’s commitment to our heroes. As a true patriot, no doubt Walt Disney would be proud of the way his company is thanking our veterans for their service! 👏

I am so proud of the veterans in my life. It is a life of dedication and service and for all you sacrificed we THANK YOU!

To all the veterans out there—thank you for your dedication, bravery, and sacrifice. Let’s celebrate the heroes in our lives today; put their names in the comments, or simply say thank you! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

Whether you’re visiting Magic Kingdom in July or December, for kids who believe in the magic of Santa Claus 🎅, here’s a memory none of you will forget. At Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe, children can write and mail letters to Santa Claus! Everything needed—paper, crayons, and a mailbox—is provided ✏️📬. This is one of those touches that just makes a person fall in love with the Disney magic! ✨

I remember writing letters to Santa as a kid and all the hope and joy that came with it. I think this is a magical idea come to life at Disney.

If you’re a parent or grandparent, you know how incredibly fast these years fly by ❤️. When they handwrite that letter, believing with all their hearts… aaaaah…that’s a memory you’ll hold onto forever! Take all the pictures! 📸 Who grew up writing to Santa? 🎅✨

➡️ Park hopper or base tickets? It’s one of the top questions we travel agents get. Deciding if the extra cost is worth it can be tough—no one wants to waste money, but time is just as valuable 💸⏰. Disney’s park hopper ticket upgrade gives you more value for both in a few ways:

Dining 🍽️: Finding that your favorite restaurants seem to be in just one or two parks? With a park hopper, you can easily dine at any park at any time.

Flexibility 🌐: Swamped by crowds? A park hopper lets you switch parks if one feels too packed. A leisurely afternoon or evening stroll around World Showcase could be just what you need after a busy Magic Kingdom morning.

Lightning Lanes ⚡🎢: Want to hit top rides in different parks on the same day? With the Lightning Lane Single Pass, you can purchase two per day, and they don’t have to be in the same park.

Maximize time ⏳: If your time is limited, you can ride your must-dos and then bounce to the next park with ease.

Sometimes you can't afford a whole week of vacation with work time off or maybe it's a cost factor of a week's long vacation at Disney. The park hopper pass let's you hit all the must dos at different parks.

🤔 Are you team park hopper or team base ticket? Tell us in the comments!

So, you're heading to Walt Disney World during the holidays…and you're wondering if you should drop the extra cash on Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party? 🎄 Honestly, who isn’t! It's a big splurge, and let’s be real—the trip already isn’t exactly easy on the wallet 💸.

But here’s the thing: that cost offers shorter wait times for the best rides 🎢, exclusive shows and parades you won’t see during the day 🎉, free holiday treats and cocoa ☕🍪, and snow falling on Main Street, U.S.A. ❄️. I mean, where else can you get that? Plus, “limited capacity” means lower crowds and not feeling like you're battling for space with every other human on the planet.

I love all the special holiday themed photos and magic shots you can get with Memory Maker. Just the BEST!!!

Listen, I can tell you what makes the event special, but at the end of the day, you’ve got to weigh whether those perks are enough to justify the price. If you want to know more or need help deciding if it’s worth it for you, I’m here to help! 🎄✨

Celebrating Nassau Bahamas today. Their new port area is really coming along well. Still more construction but they definitely are improving what was in the past a dismal area.

🚢 Cruise Fun Fact: Did you know that several cruise lines are “related” to each other? Royal Caribbean Cruise Line and Celebrity Cruises are family. Carnival Cruise Line, Holland America, and Princess Cruises are family. BUT, and it’s a big one, just because there are connections doesn’t mean that all cruise lines are created equally.

👩‍💻 I work with my cruise clients to find out what they’re looking for in a cruise, what types of experiences they want, and what’s really important to them. After getting to know you, we talk options—SO. MANY. OPTIONS!

Have teens and kids? Let’s look at Royal Caribbean.

Retired couples? How about Holland America?

Want the feel of luxury without the price tag? Celebrity is a winner.

I am certified and available to help with any cruises but I am definitely a Royal Caribbean / Celebrity expert with plenty of cruises under my belt personally!

😎 I’ve got the knowledge and experience to guide you through the entire cruising process! So, let’s work together. Give me a call ‪☎ 717-850-3436‬ or send me a message. 😊
