Happiest Places Travel

We have traveled a lot in 2024: Paris, Germany, and Disney World! Needless to say the travel fund is depleted but our wanderlust is not cured. We are kicking off 2025 travel with spring break camping at Top Sail Hill State Park! Keeping costs low in our tent (we are hard core campers) and exploring the emerald coast. Where will your 2025 travels take you?

Sometimes you take 4 kids to Disney by yourself. 🫣 It was a magical first day. We arrived at Disney after a flawless flight and car transport about 3:20 pm. Enjoyed the pool at the Swan and Dolphin, what a gem, a cheaper way to get a Deluxe feel with a great location! We enjoyed the pool and pizza. Then off to the Hoop Dee Doo Musical R***e! The kids were very blah about the idea of going but every single one of them ended up loving it. They stuffed their faces and enjoyed the show. My daughter even got called up to participate on stage and they told the whole crowd she will be playing Olaf in her production of Frozen. My girl was in heaven! Loving all the cousin time. In bed at midnight so sleeping in tomorrow! My goal this trip is more relaxed, let people rest!

Thanks for a magical day 1 Disney. Grateful to be here. Wish Nana was here.

Guys, I found a great cruise deal for you! San Juan to Galveston and you get to spend 6 nights enjoying Disney Cruise magic with stops in both Castaway Cay (Disney’s private island) and their brand bew private port at Lookout Cay. Cruise rates start at $3,697 for a family of 4….that is INSANE! At that price you can tack on a few days stay in Puerto Rico before your cruise. I would book myself if I hadn’t just spend all my money in Europe!! Bookings open this weekend and prices usually only go up so message me if you want a quote on this or any other itinerary!! Then I can help you plan the trip of your dreams!!! And maybe live vicariously through you on this one!

Looking for a way to up your Halloween fun game this fall? Consider a trip to Disney World for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Tickets on sale today! If you are a Sanderson sisters fan this event is for you! Special tip: don’t buy a park pass for the day you attend the party. The party ticket gets you into Magic Kingdom 4 pm to midnight. I suggest spending the morning as a rest day, Disney Springs or water park and then hit up the party at 4 pm. This saves one day of park tickets to help offset the party cost.

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is a ticketed special event which includes Halloween-themed entertainment and takes place after dark at Walt Disney World Resort.

Thinking about a trip to the happiest place on earth this summer? Disney World is offering some special summer experiences to make your trip extra magical. A quick summary, saving the most exciting for last:

Animal Kingdom: 30th Anniversary Lion King celebration with exclusive merchandise and snacks plus chances to meet Timon and Rafiki as well as learn to draw Lion King characters in an animation class.

Hollywood Studios: Meet Joy in celebration of Inside Out 2 coming to theaters this summer.
