I recently had the pleasure of planning a Walt Disney World vacation for a family of 4 traveling from Australia. She sent me some kind words to share💕😊

"Planning an overseas holiday can be a daunting task and even more so when it is to Disney World. There are so many insider tips and tricks and research to be done and still you can’t get a handle on it all.

That is why I am so grateful to Alana for being our Disney Vacationeer! Advice, ideas, support, assistance with booking everything (and I mean everything!!) to make sure that we had the best possible time at Disney. From dining at out of this world locations (Space220) and the Boathouse, to so much advice about Lightening lanes to ensure we had the most magical holiday

I cannot recommend Alana enough for anyone thinking that Disney is too hard to plan for. And all doing it from the other side of the world but making herself available to us when we needed it. Thank you so much Alana our trip would not have been what it was without your help”.

🎉🚀 Happy 50th Anniversary, Space Mountain! 🪐✨

Today we celebrate 50 years of zipping through the stars on one of Walt Disney World’s most iconic attractions!

I truly cannot believe this is a 50 year old ride! It is still one of my absolute must-dos at Magic Kingdom. I leave with a smile on my face every time. I'vebeen on it more times than I can count but it NEVER gets old.

🌌 Here are some fun facts about this out-of-this-world ride:

🚀 Opened January 15, 1975, Space Mountain was Disney's first-ever indoor roller coaster and the first roller coaster to debut at Magic Kingdom!
🌠 The concept for Space Mountain was actually dreamed up by Walt Disney himself in the 1960s, though it wasn’t built until after his passing.
👨‍🚀 Did you know? The ride originally cost $20 million to construct, which was a huge investment back then!
✨ The iconic "Star Tunnel" music you hear in the queue was added in 1985 and remains a fan favorite to this day.

If you have a favorite Space Mountain picture drop it here!

🏰 Start your magical vacation with a splash 🌈—whether it’s slipping down thrilling water slides, floating along lazy rivers, or just soaking up the Florida sun ☀️.

🌈The Crayola Experience🌈

🌟 As a travel agent, I'm often asked about fun things to do around Orlando outside of Disney World. Last month, we decided to explore the Crayola Experience at The Florida Mall—and let me tell you, it was such a blast! 🎨🖍️

This colorful attraction offers over 20 hands-on activities for all ages. Some of our favorites included:
🎨 Wrap It Up!: Create and name your own crayon (such a cute keepsake!).
🖌️ Drip Art: Melt crayons into a vibrant masterpiece.
🌈 Rainbow Rain: Play with virtual paint that moves with you—no mess involved!
💡 Scribble Square: Let your imagination run wild while coloring on giant chalk walls.
🎭 Be a Star: Design your own coloring page and see yourself as a Crayola character.
📦 Melt & Mold: Turn crayons into custom shapes like rings or race cars.
🛍️ Crayola Store: A treasure trove of colorful goodies and souvenirs.

My daughter's favorite activity was making her very own slime - she felt like a little scientist! My son loved the little indoor playground he could crawl around on.

This place is a perfect mix of creativity, fun, and nostalgia—it’s a must-visit for families or anyone looking to try something unique in Orlando. 💛✨ I was pleasantly surprised by how much fun our whole family had!

🏰✨ While I usually recommend staying at a Disney resort for your Disney World trips, sometimes exploring other options can be just as magical.

🏨🌟 Last week, we experienced the Orlando World Center Marriott for the first time, and it was fantastic!

📍🛍️ Located right next to Disney Springs, the hotel offers complimentary shuttles to the Disney parks, making it super convenient.

🏊‍♂️💦 The resort-style pool and waterpark were a big hit. There are multiple water slides, a lazy river, and a toddler area too.

🎄To celebrate Christmas, we enjoyed nightly fireworks right from our balcony, as well as a nightly laser light show.

🎆 Plus, we could even see the Epcot fireworks!

🍽️🎮 With multiple restaurants, an arcade, and daily activities for kids, there was never a dull moment.

🛏️ The updated guest rooms were comfortable and inviting.

👍 I would definitely recommend this hotel to my clients; we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

🏖️ In fact, we had two days where we didn’t even leave the hotel!
