If you’ve been on any Disney social media page during the holidays, you know about the iconic gingerbread house in the lobby of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort.

But did you know that there are actually EIGHT amazing gingerbread displays throughout the Walt Disney World property during the holiday season?

From the life-sized baby giraffe and zebra at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to the INCREDIBLE moving gingerbread carousel that sits in the lobby of Disney’s Beach Club Resort, a resort tour needs to be on your MUST-DO list when visiting Walt Disney World during the holidays. Beginning in November, make sure to stop by and see these works of art in all their glory (and don’t forget to pick up some special treats and beverages for sale when taking in the views of these gingerbread masterpieces).

Thinking about your own Disney Holiday vacation? It’s not too early to plan your Disney vacation for December 2025! Message me today and I would love to help you plan your memorable holiday vacation in the Disney Parks!

The calendar has hit November, so that just means one thing: IT’S TIME TO THINK ABOUT CHRISTMAS!!

EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays is the perfect place to make holiday memories in the Disney Parks…and there are some brand new experiences they’ve added to the festivities!

Probably my favorite on the list: an 8 foot tall gingerbread structure inspired by Spaceship Earth! This incredible gingerbread sphere will be on display inside CommuniCore Hall. Just like the real Spaceship Earth, the cookie version will light up and dance along with music throughout the day. And while you’re in CommuniCore Hall, check out all the Christmas trees on display in the Glittering Grove presented by Balsam Hill! 🎄🎄🎄🎄

If you step out of CommuniCore Hall into CommuniCore Plaza, you and your kids can enjoy snowflake decorating, while listening to the sounds of JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season.

Whether it’s gingerbread, snowflakes, or Christmas trees, EPCOT is the place to celebrate the holidays inside Walt Disney World!

It’s National Cappuccino Day! ☕️

Did you know about this secret app that allows you to customize the art on top of your cappuccino (or coffee or latte…) while in Walt Disney World?

Head over to Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea in Disney Springs The Landing or Contemporary Grounds at Disney’s Contemporary Resort and download the Ripples app. From there, you can customize the art you want to see on your drink! Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Orange Bird—(pro tip: skip the whipped cream on the top—the design shows up better straight on the coffee foam).

Coffee with a side of ✨magic✨ please!

Disney dropped 2025 discounts earlier in the week and I have been working hard quoting vacations for so many of you that are interested in going to Walt Disney World in 2025!

But not only that—I have checked every single client reservation that is booked with me. Part of the beauty of using me as your Travel Agent that specializes in Disney vacations is that *I* do the legwork! I “babysit” your reservations to make sure you’re getting every discounts possible. If it’s going to save you money—or possibly upgrade you to your Dream Resort for a price that’s in your budget—I’m going to let you know!

This week, across nine current reservations that I have booked with me, I have saved my clients a total of $6,553.35. SIX THOUSAND PLUS DOLLARS. One family I saved $1,755.43 because the discount opened up a cheaper resort that better fit into their current budget. Another family that had a total of three rooms, I was able to save $1,903.50. Two thousand dollars is now back in their pocket to use however they like—maybe booking a nicer dinner for their entire family while on their Disney vacation? Maybe they’ll upgrade to a private limo pickup at the airport to drive them to their resort? However they choose to use or save that money, I’m so thrilled that these families are trusting me to watch after their reservations and get them the very best deal possible. And did I mention my services are completely FREE to you? Let’s talk booking your own 2025 Disney vacation and saving you some money!

Brand new menu items coming to Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe!

It may not be the toppings bar we all know and miss dearly, but it sounds like they’re getting close—because this new menu is “create-your-own” style! Choose a base: Steamed Tamale, Rice Bowl, Nacho Bowl, or Southwest Caesar Salad— and then add a protein: Citrus-Chipotle Chicken, Green Chili Pork, or Coca-Cola Cherry Braised Beef. Not wanting to build your own? Then choose from new menu items like a Chili con Queso Burger or a Grilled Mesa Flatbread!

Magic Kingdom is continuing to step up its food game over the last few years and I’m here for it all!
