So many big Disney announcements have come out for the future of Disney Parks!
Some highlights include:
A new nighttime parade for Magic Kingdom
Encanto themed area and ride in Animal Kingdom
A Monsters Inc Land in Hollywood Studios
Indiana Jones ride in Animal Kingdom
Cars themed area and rides coming to Magic Kingdom’s Frontierland
Pandora & Avatar coming to Disneyland Anaheim
And the biggest… Villains Land coming to Magic Kingdom!
So much more coming from D23 but these are some of my favorites coming in the future!!
Did you know:
When you book a stay at one of Walt Disney World’s Deluxe resorts, you have special Extended Evening Hours on certain nights at a designated park?
Most times of the year these parks are Magic Kingdom or EPCOT but during the fall and holiday season it may be Hollywood Studios or even Animal Kingdom!
This is an amazing benefit that allows you to stay past park closing and wait in significantly lower lines generally and even have a chance for an extra Virtual Queue for rides that offer it that are open for these nights, like Guardians of the Galaxy or Tron!
We went to Magic Kingdom’s Extended Evening Hours this week and were able to walk on most rides or wait with a much lower wait time— all after the heat of the day!
Let’s chat about which resorts qualify and how we can plan dates so you make the most of this benefit!
Checking in to say summer is a tad warm but still fun in WDW!
Because we will be there, I was able to check out the updates and booking system in the new Lightning Lane system and I have to say…I’m a fan! 🎢
The one downside was that by 8 AM (booking opens at 7 am) Tiana’s Bayou Adventure was already sold out for next Wednesday. But that ride is also on a Virtual Queue AND we have the advantage of Deluxe Extended Hours to ride it as well, so I wasn’t that concerned. Peter Pan’s Flight is currently closed which is why it’s not showing as an option here.
If you scroll through the slides and notice though, the new system seems to know when my dining reservations are and nicely lined up a whole day at Animal Kingdom, which I loved seeing! 🐘 It adds the Single Pass returns to your day as well, as you see with Flight of Passage.
Overall the system seems to be much more intuitive, clean, and understandable! Love it 🎉
Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸🎆
Happy 4th of July from EPCOT ❤️🤍💙

Who else has seen Inside Out 2 this past week? 🙋🏼♀️
I may or may not have gone twice…once with a Disney Sales training and once with my own family.
If you haven’t been yet— GO. Like right now. It is so so good. Especially if you have tweens and older kids.
And if you’re a big Inside Out fan, you also need to add a trip to Disneyland Resort during Pixar Fest to the tippy top of your Disney Bucket List, or at the very least book a stay at the Pixar Place Hotel, where Bing B**g himself made an appearance this winter when I was visiting!
I would LOVE to chat about booking and planning your bucket list Disney vacation!

🔔Maybe it’s because it reminds me of local areas back home near Philly or it’s the history-lovin’ nerd in me but I just LOVE Liberty Square. The Hall of Presidents, Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe, Sleepy Hollow, and even a Liberty Bell replica! Oh and be sure to visit Liberty Tree Tavern for an amazing meal too! 🇺🇸 What’s your favorite area in Magic Kingdom?!
🌌Did you know there’s bioluminescence all around Pandora in Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom? It can only be seen after dark though which makes it tricky to be able to see with early closing times at this park. If you’re planning a wintertime trip make sure to add this to you TO DO list since sunset time makes it easier to be able to see this beautiful sight! 🌝
Many of my favorite memories as a family have been at Walt Disney World and I think that’s why I love it so much. From infants to pre-teens now, we’ve been through the various stages and each is wonderful in the Most Magical Place on Earth!
Here are my top tips for staying cool on your Walt Disney World summer vacation! 1. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! We pack multiple water bottles per day (instacart!), know where to find the refillable water bottle stations, and ask for water refills at Quick Service stations! It sounds so basic but it’s so easy to quickly dehydrate. 2. Cooling towels! You can find these on Amazon to have them handy on day one! Re-wet them throughout the day to keep cool. 3. Plan to either open or close the park for less mid-day sun. We often do both because we are early risers, but definitely to take an extended mid day break at our resort to chill in the AC and swim. 4. Plan sit down meals, especially mid day, as these are a great way to fully cool off in the AC for an extended period of time, refuel and rehydrate. 5. Make use of that resort pool for mid day cooling off! 6. Utilizing Genie + is a wonderful way to avoid standing in longer lines, particular those with outdoor queues. 7. If you’re staying at a Deluxe resort make use of the extended evening hours for post-sunset park time 8. Not staying deluxe or want more time after dark with less crowds? Consider adding a Disney After Hours ticket! Contact me to get started on planning your summer vacation! 📧[email protected]
The perfect gift is always a Disney trip!
Even if you’re not the world’s biggest Star Wars fan, it’s hard not to love the incredible experiences of Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! From droid and lightsaber building experiences to boba drinks at Oga’s Cantina and Rise of the Resistance, there’s nothing as immersive as a day walking around Galaxy’s Edge! #maythe4thbewithyou #galaxysedge
Worst Disney age? When they’ve outgrown the largest size stroller but still have legs too short to keep up with their Disney-lovin’ parents.
🦒Want to stay at a Walt Disney World Deluxe resort but need to stick to a budget? Check out Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge! This amazing resort will transport you right into the savannas of Africa! With multiple incredible restaurants to choose from, a super cool pool and splash pad, unique theming, and even…REAL ANIMALS! Yes, there are giraffes here and you could see them from your room (with a Savanna room view option!)! Because this resort has bus-only options for transportation to the theme parks you can find some really amazing rates but all the perks of a Deluxe resort, including access to Deluxe extended evening hours! Chat with me to plan the best Walt Disney World resort option for your family’s magical vacation!
The brand new Villas at Disneyland Hotel! Check out this beautiful new pool and Steamboat Willie themed splash pad for little ones! I was able to stay one night in the Villas at Disneyland Hotel last month and, let me tell you, they are INCREDIBLE. A must-do if you’re planning a trip to Disneyland! Contact me for your complimentary Disney vacation proposal!
During my recent trip to Walt Disney World in January, I added the Disney Dining plan so that I would be able not only to try it out under the new plan but also so that I could let my clients know my personal experience with it. There are a lot of elements to the dining plan options, so here is my first tip on using the table service Disney Dining Plan to get the most value for what you pay: Research which table service (sit down with a server) dining options you may want to do when you are in Walt Disney World and *plan to use your dining credits on the Table Service meals that will cost the most for just one dining credit.* Most service restaurants only use one dining credit from your plan. These are the ones that you would likely want to use a dining credit at, if you want to get the most out of your money. Check in tomorrow for more info on this tip, as well as some dining recommendations!
Maybe it’s the Jersey Shore raised boardwalk lover in me, but Pixar Pier might be my favorite view in all of Disneyland Resort. #disneyland #pixarpier
I recently got some hate on a post about Rope Dropping a character meet. But I also got lots of love from people agreeing with me that it’s okay to Rope Drop what you want to, even if there aren’t long wait times for that ride at other times. Is it the best strategy, if you’re wanting to do some of the most popular attractions? Definitely not. Would I recommend it if you know you want to do all the long-wait attractions? Heck no. But do I 100% think every family needs to know their own ideal day and what that entails? Absolutely yes. Sometimes that is slowing down to watch a show. Sometimes that is stopping to eat that Mickey Ice Cream bar and watching a parade. Sometimes it is rushing to park hop to EPCOT to see Belle in her blue dress before she’s gone for the day. Sometimes it’s knowing when to buy a Lightning Lane so your kids can sleep in and still not spend all day waiting for Flight of Passage. And sometimes it’s catching a trolley ride just to sit down for a few moments, even though you could walk the same stretch 5x faster. So if you want to Rope Drop Mine Train, I’m all for it. If all your kids want to see is Elsa and you know you want to do Frozen Ever After 5 times in one day, then by all means arrive early and march over to that ride for Rope Drop. If your kid hates rides and simply wants to meet Figment at 9 AM on the dot (like mine) by all means go straight there. There is no right way to do Disney. But there is a best way for your family. And I’m here to help you navigate planning the absolute best Disney vacation you can have.

One of the BEST perks to staying at a Deluxe Disney resort??Extended evening hours! On certain nights each week at various parks, deluxe resort guests only can access rides and attractions after park closing.This is a GREAT way to: 1. Have very low wait times for typically long wait time rides 2. Enjoy walking on most other rides and attractions 3. Savor the quiet of nighttime at the parks 4. Escape the heat! Especially in warmer months this is the best way to beat the heat and enjoy parks without the sun. Looking to plan a Disney trip this year? DM me for special pricing and promotions that end THIS WEEK! So many amazing deals, especially on Deluxe Disney resorts and packages!
