New to Epcot!

February 19, 2019 WDW Dreams Into Memories

Beginning March 6, 2019 Coco will be joining us in the Mexico Pavilion! With the help of Mariachi Cobre and Folklórico dancers, Coco’s story will be shared in a way it never has been before. The artists will tell the story of Miguel and his journey to find his family through song and dance. The Mariachi Cobre will play music and get everyone participating in this great story. Miguel will be with us through the Flower & Garden Festival.

While Ralph and Vanellope have been meeting with guests for a while now over at innoventions, it was time for a change. The imagineers at Imageworks have invited them through a portal from their dimension into ours! Guests can continue to meet with Ralph and Vanellope in the Imageworks section of Journey Into Imagination. Say hi to my friend Figment while you are there!

Big Things at Animal Kingdom in 2019!

February 17, 2019February 17, 2019 WDW Dreams Into Memories

Animal Kingdom is going to be a special place to visit in 2019! New things are being added and limited time magic is happening at a few locations as well. This year, the Disney animated film “The Lion King” turns 25. “The Lion King” has always been a huge part of Animal Kingdom and now we are celebrating it even more!

Now through September 30th, guests can party with Lion King’s Timon & Rafiki as well as other jungle friends, Meeko, Turk, Koda, & Baloo. Guests can sing, dance, and jump around with all of the “party animals”. Also, a new Tree of Life Awakenings will take place each night at dusk. The tree will light up to scores from the move “The Lion King” and will showcase Simba’s journey through the movie.

You just never know what creatures you are going to run into while in Animal Kingdom. Recently, a familiar face was seen migrating right through the park! Kevin! Krababble! This sweet snipe from Up has made it right to the park’s Discovery Island! The castmembers at Disney are using this opportunity to teach us all about bird migration. Because of Disney’s location, several birds use the park as a stop over during their trip. Learn about Kevin and many other birds and their migration patterns. Oh – and be careful if you are traveling with any chocolate in your pockets.

Magic Kingdom · Walt Disney World

Join in the Magic

February 14, 2019February 16, 2019 WDW Dreams Into Memories

There is something special about walking up Main Street USA. Whether it’s the first time ever or the first time of your 100th trip. I still get tingles after walking through the tunnels under the train station. There is magic around every corner and the adventure begins.

I cannot say enough about what Disney has done for my life and my relationships. Growing up with Disney in my life has left an everlasting impression of magic & happiness on my heart. I am hoping to do that with my children and with each child I am lucky enough to plan a trip for going forward.

Regardless of what is going on in our lives when we leave for a Disney trip, the only thing that matters when we cross through those gates is the love we have for each other and the memories we are about to make We always grow as a family when we are on vacation but the closeness we feel when we leave from a Disney vacation is different. It’s laughing at Goofy, it’s holding hands in the crowd, it’s cuddling during fireworks, it’s sharing a Mickey Head Ice Cream, it’s posing with Belle, it’s squeezing a little tighter on The Haunted Mansion. It’s It’s the Magic of Disney.

Meg the Travel Agent

A Whole New Role

February 8, 2019February 16, 2019 WDW Dreams Into MemoriesLeave a comment

My love for Disney and Planning has brought a new role into my life. After a conversation with the wonderful Agent who I had assist us in turning our Disney Dreams into memories, I decided this would be a lot of fun! I have been told (more than I care to admit) that I over plan. Sometimes, I even get a little blue that the planning part is over once our Disney Trip Countdown gets to zero. Even though I plan for families & friends, I am always looking for another trip to plan. To fill that planning void, I decided to become a Vacation Specialist for Disney Destinations.

If you want to visit Walt Disney World, Disneyland, A Disney Cruise, Aulani or a Disney Adventure, let me plan it for you! I can take all of the stress off of you and your family by performing all the different tasks associated with planning a trip.

Love to plan your own trips obsessing over each second like I do? Using a Disney Vacation Specialist like myself is still a great idea. I can monitor the rates at Disney once you are reserved in case any discounts arise and then can apply them to your reservation! I can also make some of those phone calls that are harder to make for Magical Experiences.

I can be as hands on or hands off as you would like with your reservation, but I will take care of it as if it were my own.

Also, with qualifying reservations, we send out our Minnie Box! It is our gift to you and will arrive at your home prior to you leaving, wrapped up in a big yellow bow! Each is different and tailored to your particular family.

I also can assist you with reservations and packages for Universal!!

Let me work with you to turn Dreams into Memories.
