My Disney World Vacation Blog
This blog will be broken up into small chunks, so you can easily follow along with the planning process. I will also blog during our vacation and try to offer as many tips as possible. I am by no means a Disney World professional. I have not been to WDW in over 10 years, but I do frequent Disneyland (Annual Passholder and we go a lot!)Background Info: My daughter and I are avid Disney fans. Living in Southern California, we go to Disneyland every chance we get. The men (my husband and son) will go, but would probably prefer not to. So we leave them at home most of the time. We both have Annual Passes and try to soak up as much Disney as we can handle. Our family started going to Disneyland regularly since my daughter was 3, and now she is almost 28. We go many times a year now!
My daughter did the Disney College Program, she worked in Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom. This spot fit her perfectly! Everyone who knows her would agree! She worked on Peter Pan and It’s a Small World. She absolutely loved it. She is a people person and loves interaction. As part of her job rotation she also got to do Fireworks crowd control often (many others did not want to do it – so she would volunteer!). She loves WIshes! (the firework show). She saw it so many times that she knows it by heart! When we found out that Wishes was going away – we had to plan a trip to go see it one more time (or maybe a few more times)! At first it was a pipe dream, but we found a way to make this trip became a reality..
This blog will include pre-trip planning, travel tips, and our actual vacation! Make sure you read all the posts 🙂 There is a link at the bottom of the page, under the blog posts to view older posts!

Thinking about past Disney World vacations
My family has taken many trips to Disney World, but I think the first was the most magical. It stands out in my head and I have some amazing memories from that trip. First trip was in August of 1999. 5 of us - Me and my husband and 2 kids (8 and 10), plus Grandma came...
How much should we take with us each day?
What sorts of things do you take to the parks with you? Do you rent a locker? I am busy thinking about what we will need to take with us each day to the parks. I've been adding items to our packing list and trying to organize piles of things at home to get ready to...
Here’s the plan right now
Things have changed a little, but here is the plan right now. I am sure it will change, but we are about 3 weeks out and I am starting to solidify things in my head. Flying on a red-eye. This plan of attack assumes that we get some sleep on the plane. If not - then...
Mid-day breaks are amazing
If you are visiting Disney World during a super busy time, or in the heat of summer, mid-day breaks can really save your trip! Although, we are not planning any mid-day breaks this trip, I strongly suggest them! This trip is my daughter and I. Our main objective is to...
