Emily Crawford - The Enchanted Traveler

Meet Billy! 🐐 Billy is the goat on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad who holds a stick of dynamite in his mouth. 🧨 He stands at the top of one of the mountains on the ride. If you keep your eyes locked on him as the coaster moves around him on the track, the ride feels way more intense. Some even feel like they are spinning! What causes this sensation? Why, it’s Disney Magic, of course! That…and g-force. 😉 Have you tried the goat trick before? #familyvacations #tipsandtrickstuesday #vacationmodeon #thrillseeker #thrillseekers #disneyattractions

Park reservations, dining reservations, Genie+ - oh my! A lot of planning and preparation goes into a trip to Disney World or Disneyland, and it can be overwhelming when you need to keep up with all the fast-paced operational changes Disney has seen over the past two years. Why worry about navigating through this by yourself when you can have a travel professional do it for you? This news clip from Fox 8 aired about mid-October, and some of my NC Triad area friends may have already seen it. One month later, and some of the details within this clip have already changed or have been tweaked, further proving just how quickly Disney’s rules and policies are changing. Let me take care of those pesky planning details so that you can arrive at Disney World with a customized itinerary, full of every reservation made and detail noted to make your trip as stress-free as possible! Experience that Disney magic with confidence, knowing that I will be here to guide you through every step of the way. Email me for more information: [email protected]

Even though Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party starts at 7pm, you’re allowed into the Magic Kingdom as early as 4pm! So glad I was able to experience my favorite time of the year in Disney, watching my favorite parade, Mickey’s Boo to You! #bootoyou #happyhalloween2022 #happyhalloween #familyvacationideas #vacationideas #neededabreak #taketimeforyou #timeaway #solotravel #solotrip #solotraveler

If your PTO runs on the calendar year, don’t forget to take it! You deserve a little time off. And what better way to spend it than a trip to Universal Studios Orlando?! Definitely speaking from experience over here. 😄#corporatemillennial #millennial #taketimeforyou #taketimeforyourself #timeoff #outofoffice #timeaway #spendtime #spendtimetogether #makememories #makingmemoriestogether

Universal Studios in Orlando has some of the most immersive and beautiful resorts that I’ve seen. Separated into tiers, the Premier (top) Tier Hotels come with a Universal Express pass, allowing you to skip the lines for rides an unlimited amount of times. When you book a Premier Hotel, you get incredible the ring, beautiful and clean rooms, incredible service from friendly staff, and less waits while you are in the theme parks! Experiencing one of Universal’s Premier Hotels is a luxury experience you won’t want to miss out on. The one displayed in this video is one my favorites: Portifino Bay! Replicating the charm of the picturesque seaside village of Portofino, Italy, this hotel hosts outdoor cafes and shops around a serene harbor, 3 stunning pools, and delicious Italian restaurants. #universalstudios #universalstudiosorlando #universalorlando #universalresort #themeparks #placestostay #vacationing #vacationideas #luxuryvacation #luxuryvacations #familyvacations #wheretotravel

Volcano Bay is Universal Studios Orlando’s water park, and is one to not be overlooked! Highlights from this park include:✨ An aqua coaster ✨ Tapu Tapu, a band you wear in your wrist that allows you to virtually stand in line for rides while you go on other rides✨ A lazy river and a “wild” river✨ Cleanliness, which is so crucial for water parks✨ Cabanas that give your family a “home base” to run to in between rides (and so many amenities included, such as pastries, personal services, etc). This park is included in the 3-park ticket package and is perfect for when you need a day in between the other parks to relax!#aquacoaster #rollercoaster #themepark #waterparks #waterparkfun💦 #volcanobay #volcanobaywaterpark #universalstudiosorlando #universalorlandoresort #universalmoments #universalstudiosflorida #familytime #familyvacations #vacationmode #vacationvibes #makingmemories #madememories

Need an escape from the ordinary life of a Muggle? The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Orlando spans across two parks, connected by the Hogwarts Express. Cast spells with your interactive wand, drink butter beer (frozen, cold or hot), see Hagrid’s magical creatures as you take a ride on his motorbike, dine at the Leaky Cauldron or the Three Broomsticks, shop at Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes, venture down Knockturn Alley, and so much more! #harrypotter #wizardingworld #wizardingworldofharrypotter #wizardingworldorlando #universalstudiosorlando #themeparks #themeparkfun #youreawizardharry #vacationideas #familyvacations #butterbeer

Halloween is my personal favorite time to visit Disney! I went to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party (an after hours event) and went trick-or-treating around the Magic Kingdom, ate a bunch of Halloween themed goodies, saw a few of my favorite characters, and ended the day with my favorite parade (Boo To You)! I’d recommend adding this special tickets to your trip if you are heading to Disney World next fall! #bootoyou #disneyvacation #familyvacation #disneyhalloween #disneyhalloweenparty #mickeysnotsoscaryhalloweenparty #notsoscaryhalloweenparty #trickortreat #vacationtime #falltravel #makingmemories #madememories

Have a superhero in your family? They’d probably love Avenger’s Campus at Disney’s California Adventure! Shoot webs are spider-bots with Spider-Man, perform in the mystic arts with Dr. Strange, break the Guardians of the Galaxy out of the collectors fortress, and then drink and eat at Pym’s Test Kitchen and Tasting Lab for a job well done!#disneycalifornia #disneycaliforniaadventure #disneyland #avengerscampus #disneyavengers #disneylandresort #superhero #superheroine #marvelcomics #guardiansofthegalaxy

Have you seen the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay of the Haunted Mansion? It’s one of the many special experiences Disneyland has for Halloween. #disneyland #disneylandhalloween #halloweentimeatdisneyland #halloweentime #hauntedmansion #hauntedmansionholiday #familyholiday

Looking for the perfect meal to satisfy any and every craving you may have while in the parks? Look no further! Lamplight Lounge is one of the best (and my personal favorite) restaurants in Disneyland. Located in Disney’s California Adventure, Lamplight Lounge offers a wide variety of drinks and cocktails, and has an extensive brunch, lunch, and dinner menu. #lamplightlounge #disneyland #disneylandfood #disneylandfoodie #disneyfoodie #pixar #pixarpier #vacation #vacationfood #brunch #brunchtime #brunching #brunchideas

You won’t go hungry on a Disney cruise! 😋 Seriously though, the food is next level amazing. #disneycruise #disneycruise #disneycruiseline #disneywish #disneyfood #disneyfoodie #dinnerandashow #goodfoodgoodmood #yummyfood #parentapproved #kidapproved #kidapprovedfood #familytravels

Dinner with a side of quantum technology. Perfect pair or a chaotic combination? 🤔 I’m going to say it’s perfect chaos in the best possible way. 😁 Disney’s Wish offers 3 incredible dining experiences. One is World of Marvel, where your dinner seems to go awry with Ant-Man’s subatomic technology. Step into the Marvel Cinematic Universe with this culinary adventure! #disneycruise #disneycruiseline #disneywish #disneyvacation #familyvacation #familyvacations #marvel #marveluniverse #familyadventure #makememories #takeadventures #dinnerandashow

What is your favorite part of visiting a Walt Disney World park? The decorations? Food? Rides? Pools? Resorts? Smells (yep, I said smells)? Cast members? Characters? Fireworks? Parades? Shows? For me, it’s the joy I see on a person’s face when they experience the magic for the first time. #experiencedisney #disneyparks #disneymagic #disneyfoodie #makememories #makingmemories #disneyvacations #familyvacations #vacationideas #sharethemagic #familytimeisthebesttime
