Disney Giveaway

**Please note: This giveaway is now closed to new entries.

I’m feeling extra generous today, so I am going to offer another giveaway. This one has two purposes.

1. I am a comment junkie and love to hear from my readers (Did you see the cute little sunflower I just added to try to encourage more comments?)

2. I like to talk about myself.

When I’m not giving my kids reasons they will need therapy and stalking Ryan Gosling online, I am a professional travel planner.

I have been doing this for over 2 years and I absolutely LOVE it.

While I have experience with planning honeymoons, all-inclusive getaways, cruises and more, I spend most of my time helping families with their vacation plans. My specialty and absolute first love is Walt Disney World.

(The photo below is of me receiving my diploma at the Disney College of Knowledge Graduation Ceremony in January of this past year. Can you tell how excited I am?!)

It is such a great job because planning vacations is almost as much fun as taking them. I can help my clients with choosing their hotel, activities, dining reservations and itinerary. It is like I am vicariously planning my own vacation and it doesn’t get much better than that!! Plus, I get to stay home with my kids which is an added bonus.

Most of my travel clients are local and I try to provide them with the absolute highest level of service. I’ll meet with them to give them tips and tricks to make sure that their vacation will be one they remember forever.

I guess that is why I’m still a little leery of marketing my business online to strangers (although many of you I now consider new friends). I’m not sure how this personalized service that I am used to giving would translate to the internet, but I guess I can figure that out as I go along.

This is my passion (behind my family, friends and Ryan Gosling, of course).

If you are in the market for a vacation or think you may be in the next couple of years, please consider bookmarking my website and utilizing my services. The best part is that it is totally FREE to work with a travel agent. I charge no fees because I am paid directly from the supplier (Disney, Apple, Carnival, etc…)

What on earth does all of this have to do with a giveaway? Well, I have decided to offer an amazing prize to you today.

A $50 Disney gift card

I use the word amazing because to me anything related to Disney is amazing, but I’m biased since they pay me. This really is a pretty cool card because you have your choice of so many places to use it–the Disney Store at the mall, the Disney theme parks, the Disney cruiseline and Disney Shopping online.

Here is what you need to do to enter to win:

1. Leave me a comment telling me your favorite ride or other attraction at Disney World or why you love the place as much as me (if you have never been to Disney World, just leave me a comment telling me your favorite Disney character).

2. For a second chance at winning, leave me a comment letting me know that you would like to be signed up for my travel newsletter. Please only ask to be signed up if you are interested in receiving occasional special offer emails. I send them out usually about once a month, but absolutely no more than once a week. ****Please leave me another comment letting me know so you will be entered a second time.

3. For those of you with a blog, you can earn another entry by posting about this contest on your blog. Just make sure you leave me another comment with a link to your post so I know that did this and you will be entered again.

This contest is open to anyone (non-bloggers too) and the last entry must be received no later than Monday, August 4th at 10pm EST. I will pick only one winner for the gift card.

Good luck!

This is a cool prize! I think it’s awesome to market your business on here! This is your blog, about you. (well, and Ryan… but I am SURE he would be in full support of this, as well…)

I’ve never been to a Disney theme park. We hope to go within a year, or so. We’ve intended to go before but things came up. (death once, and then we lost our house.) but i LOVE Mickey Mouse… SOOO MUCH! And Gen adores everything Disney!

Karen (Pediascribe) on July 30th, 2008 7:50 am

My favorite ride at WDW used to be The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

But then they built Soarin’

I could live on that ride. I love all things Disney. We’ve gone at least twice a year for the last 8 years (sometimes for 2 week trips) we own Disney Vacation Club, we have annual passes even though we live in Ohio, we’ve been on at least 8 disney cruises (I lost count), every room in our house has a hidden Mickey (some as obscure as being part of the wall texturing!)

And the end-all-be-all of Disney fanaticism…..in the next couple of months, we’re moving to a house where we can see WISHES from our backyard!!!!! How cool is that???

btw, here from Amy’s Random Thoughts!

Heather Johnson on July 30th, 2008 8:44 am

YEAH DISNEY!!!! It’s my family’s favorite place in the world to go!!! Hubby loves the big rides, Kiddo loves Soarin’, Space Mountain, and Big Thunder Railroad, I love the “happiness” factor, and we all love the characters.

But THE MOST IMPORTANT thing for us is that they TOTALLY cater to kiddo’s allergies. It’s virtually impossible for us to eat out … except when we’re at Disney; they go out of their way to give him safe and wonderful meals. (FYI, kiddo is allergic to the following: milk, eggs, wheat, soy, fish, shellfish, beef, pork, peanuts, and treenuts.)

Since kiddo was born (2002) we’ve been to Disneyland 5 times and Disney World 1 time. Check out this link to see the post I wrote after our most recent trip.

I’m going over RIGHT NOW to sign up for your newsletter. I’m already subscribed to several other Disney newsletters and I enjoy getting every one of them.

Thanks for this wonderful contest! And you can be sure that if I ever need help planning a Disney trip, I’ll be back at your website faster than you can say “Jiminy Cricket”!

TheAngelForever on July 30th, 2008 8:59 am

I admit it I am a Disney freak as well. I am in major withdrawal since we have not been since our honeymoon seven years ago. *sigh* That is probably why we are trying to figure out when to take our boys.

My favorite rides are: Big Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain, Test Track and The Haunted Mansion (thanks to a behind the scenes tour we took).

I love Disney because you can be a kid at heart and enjoy. The parks are clean, everyone nice and they will do anything and everything they can to make your memories wonderful.

Thanks for the wonderful contest. I am off to sign up for your mailing. I would eventually love to chat with you about booking a trip for my family.

Bella on July 30th, 2008 9:07 am

My favorite ride has to be the classic Teacup ride! Who doesn’t feel 5 years old when they ride that?

I want to enter, because my family is going to Disneyland in October, and I could seriously use $50 at that place. Having said that, I’m a Disney virgin. I’ve never been to either Disney before, it’s really a sad story. I’m married to a guy who’s been everywhere and doesn’t want to go back. This trip was actually given to my son by my MIL. I have been thinking of traveling lately, so I could definately sign up for your newsletter, even if it’s only to dream. (And are you kidding, share this with other people, I wanna win?!)

Can I still be entered?

Well, if you must know I am also a Disney junkie and I think you have my dream job!!! We go each year and more if I could convince the husband and are getting ready for an August trip so I would of course LOVE to win!! I must say my favorite ride is a toss up between Test Track and Primeval Whirl…I’m not a total thrill junkie and probably wished they would have stopped Mission to Mars like I was screaming for them to while I was riding it, but alas…I survived!! Thanks for the entry!!

[Reply]
Suzanne on July 30th, 2008 9:35 am

I’m looking forward to finding out what my daughter’s favorite Disney ride is when we take her there for her first time…she is very into Ariel and Jasmine right now, but I still love Minnie Mouse and Pooh

[Reply]
Sarah at themommylogues on July 30th, 2008 9:39 am

I’ll take two please! Space Mountain was my first roller coaster (major roller coaster fear), and oddly I loved it. But really, Epcot is my favorite of the parks. Sign me up for your newsletter please!

Congrats on the College of Disney Knowledge! I used to be a travel agent in another lifetime and did the College of Disney Knowledge back when it first came out…I would guess this was early 90’s. Anyway it was pretty laid back and you just filled out a test that came with the booklet you got every month and you earned your ears. It was a great way to learn more about Disney. It looks like it probably has evolved to something bigger and better, esp with your nice plaque and Mickey there for a graduation pic. How cool!
I am always advocating to family and friends the benefits of using a travel agent.

I LOVE Disney and anything Disney. We are closer to Disneyworld and I am partial to it. My husband was sent to Anaheim for a conference this spring, so we packed up the kids and went too. It was a five our flight with our five year old and 15 month old twins, but sooo worth it. Many people said that my babies would get nothing out of the trip….they were so wrong. Brenna fell in LOVE with Mickey and Minnie and Liam loved Chip and Dale. I think the twins are going to be Mickey and Minnie for Halloween, so a g/c would be wonderful.

Favorite ride(s) You want us to pick JUST one!

Fave kids ride – It’s a Small World. It was closed with we were in CA which was a big bummer. I like how the kids are just mesmerized by it, it can make the crabbiest toddler calm down and its a great break from the summer heat.

Fave big kid ride – Soarin. I think I rode it 5 times, my five year old 10 times, thanks to the Parent Swap!

Anyway, good meeting you come visit my blog sometime….I am just getting started and need to learn the ins and outs, but with the twins I don’t get much extra time and I sooo need blogging for dummies or somethign like that!

Jamie from fort lauderdale on July 30th, 2008 9:57 am

My favorite Disney ride will always be “It’s a Small World”. It reminds me of being at the park when I was growing up. My children love it and it better give them the same great memories I have.
Do you see therapy in their future too? LOL

We leave in 24 days for Disney World. I think this will be our 15th trip since we started having kids! My favorite thing to do is be with my husband and kids, roaming wherever we want. Favorite thing to do has to be eating! Followed by Space Mountain…but not in that order. I’d love to get your newsletter.

1. It’s sort of wierd but I like to sit on the bridge between Future World and the World Showcase at Epcot and eat candied almonds and listen to the funky Disney music over the loud speakers and be thankful I’m not at home.

2. I would love your newsletter. What a terrific career!

My favorite Disney ride is ‘It’s a Small World’. Sadly, when we vacationed there a couple years ago with our kiddos, that ride was temporarily closed for updates. I was so upset that my children didn’t get to experience my favorite Disney attraction. Hopefully we will get a chance to go back some day. I would love to enter your very generous giveaway, thanks so much for offering it. And, I’m a huge Ryan Gosling fan, too, so I think you are now my new blogging BFF, LOL! Thanks!

I’d love to receive your newsletter as well!

Emily on July 30th, 2008 10:34 am

You did this just so I would enter and win your contest, didn’t you? You know how much of a DISNEY FREAK I am!!!!!

Ok. My favorite attraction at Disney is the Animation Academy at DHS. I know it’s not thrilling or exciting, but it presents us with the best souviners EVER…our own drawings of a Disney Character.

My daughter and mother (my constant traveling companions) are just as into this attraction as I am. It’s obscure and we’ve never had a full class and that’s part of why I love it.

We discovered it back in 2005 and last year when we went, we did it 8 times! We have a total of 27 pictures between the 3 of us! (8 last year and 1 the year before).

There are so many rides I love and miss (20,000 Leagues, Mr. Toad’s, the original Journey, etc…) but this is by far, my favorite attraction.

We’re getting ready to plan our trip for next year.

How do talk to you about our trip? I’ve never used a travel agent before and I still may not (don’t get excited!!!) but my neighbors want to go as well and I’ve had no luck with other travel agents online.

Anyway, sign me up for the newsletter. I promise I won’t cancel it after one reading! LOL!

Lisa Sharp on July 30th, 2008 10:38 am

I love Disneyland because I went there a lot as a kid for family trips and such because my family is from California and I still have lots of family there. My mom and I used to house sit for my Great Aunt and Uncle (the best job ever, they have a house near LA and one in Dana Point the best little beach town!!) and go to Disney! My favorite ride there is Star Tours.

Disney World holds a special place in my heart because my hubby and I went there for our honeymoon. My favorite there was in Animal Kingdom and the ride where you go through with all the animals, I don’t remember the name. I love zoos and I love Disney so what could be better!

Life can be so stressful and negative and we need positive things in the world. Whenever I see Mickey Mouse or the Disney castle it just brings a smile to my face and reminds me of a happier time. I love epcot and all the rides.

It has been awhile since we have been to Disneyworld, but the last time we went, everyone loved the Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger ride that was like a giant video game. We would do the ride, hop off, then run back around and do it all over again. Traffic at the park was light that day. I don’t know how many times we ended up riding.

Jacqueline in Atlanta on July 30th, 2008 12:40 pm

I used to live 45 mins from Orlando, so we went to Disney frequently. I loved Epcot actually. It was fascinating learning about other countries, although the muscial variety show in the USA section was one of my favorites. The area where they grew the organic food in Epcot was also fascinating. They grew all the vegs with no dirt.

As for Disney World I always loved the expressions on the little kids faces (I had no kids at the time) when they saw one of the characters. It was the sweetest thing. They would run to get a hug. No reservation. Of course they knew that was a person in a suit, but still, they went with it.

We have not been there since the kids were young (they are teens now) and would love to go back.

Thanks for the giveaway!

We went to WDW for our honeymoon and *loved* it so much! My favorite ride was the Tower of Terror!

What a fun job you have! Did you have to pay for yourself to go to the “Disney College” or do they send you?

So nice to “meet” you through the bloggy giveaway!

Well, we’ve been twice in 5 years and prob. won’t go again for a while, but the kids did LOVE it. My favorite ‘ride’ is the safari at Animal Kingdom. It’s real, bumpy, and they put so much in to it. I guess I’d have to pick Space Mountain as my second favorite, because my boys actually rode it and enjoyed it (unlike larger coasters).

Holly on July 30th, 2008 1:31 pm

So my fave Disney character? Lilo! That little gal has a lot of spunk and its one of those movies my oldest will watch, but not ad nauseum. Yet.

I love Disney World! I have never been much of a ride person and was actually afraid to go on Soarin. After I got on the ride I fell in love with it. I wish Disney world was nearby because I would go on it a 100 more times. It was such a great experience for me. I also love the character meals because it made my daughter smile so.

I hope this counts as a ride, even though it’s not technically a ride, but I love Tom Sawyer’s Island. It’s so much fun to run through all the caves. I heard it’s going to be replaced with something else, and I’m so bummed. If that doesn’t count, then my other favorite ride is Space Mountain. Always has been, always will. If you go at night, it really does feel like you’re shooting through space!

I just went on Soarin’ for the first time last month. Utterly amazing! I nearly had a vertigo attack as we sailed over the Golden Gate Bridge, but after a few deep breaths and a mantra of “It’s just a ride…it’s just a ride…” it was incredible.

We went to Disneyland December of ‘06. I was sick as a dog!! I had a sneaky feeling to why I was so sick, but frankly, couldn’t believe it! I was pregnant!! After 7 long years of infertility, I was pregnant…and oh-so sick at Disneyland. I felt so bad for my 8 year old! He was pretty understanding, and we are hoping to make it up to him by going back to Disneyland next summer. Along with our now 11 month old, who will be almost 2 then!

I’ve never been to Disney World, but we’re going to Disneyland in December! WooHoo! I am so super excited to go because I get the chance to go with my nephews who will be turning 5 (while we are there) and 2.

I love Cinderella…most likely because it was the first movie I saw on the big screen back before I was even big enough to hold down the folding movie seats. It was wonderful!

[Reply]
Valtool on July 30th, 2008 5:05 pm

My favorite ride has always been Space Mountain, but the Aeorsmith coaster at Disney Studios is fun, as is Tower of Terror. I will add this. I am very disappointed with Disney for dropping the Tarzan show (music and stunts) at Animal Kingdom for a Nemo attraction with guys holding puppets on sticks.

My wife told me about your contest and posted a link on her blog, amychristopher.blogspot.com

One other bit of trivia (that cost us 1st place on Monday) was finding out that when Disneyland opened, the adult regular admission was $1. I think in Orlando it’s now about $72.

Rebecca on July 30th, 2008 5:07 pm

I haven’t been to Disney World but was at Disneyland when I was 10, so I’m sure there’s a lot more rides since then!! Our favorite character around here would have to be any of the princesses. Ariel and Cinderella probably being the favorites. And of course Minnie Mouse!

Thanks for the chance – this would be great for back to school shopping!

Tower of Terror for my favorite ride. I really like the shows the best….I used to work with a company where Disney was our client so for about 4 years they sent us to WDW to tour their properties as about 1/2 our questions were park related and not business related. Went on a behind the scenes tour of the World Showcase in Epcot. This is my favorite thing I have ever done there. Love to stay at there resorts so I am in the middle of everything.

I haven’t been to Disney World since 1978! But I LOVE Disneyland (it is much closer to us, though still a 2 hr plane ride away)….I worked there in 1992 & 1993 in their college program so it just holds so many special memories for me, I can’t even put it into words. I can’t wait to make it to Disney World, we are hoping to take the family in 2012. I don’t necessarily have a favorite ride though, but my top ones are Star Tours and Space Mtn.

This is a tuff question because there is so much I just love about disney. But one of my favorite memories of the trip we took was talking my mother(who won’t go on the merry go round at the local fair) to go on the “Tower of Terror” now I must admit we told a little white lie or two to get her to go on it but I don’t regret it for a minute. The picture we bought with the look on her face is worth a thousand words and then some!!! I still laugh when I look at that picture today. We all did the pin collecting while there and I would love to add to it. I’m sure they have a lot of new pins since i went 6 years ago and since we live in Maine and it’s very expensive to travel to Disney it will be another 2 years before we can go again so a GC from Disney would be wonderful~! Now I’m off to blog about this Fantastic giveaway. I’ll be back.

I went to Disney World for the first time in 2005…when I was 34. (You’re never too old!) My favorite park was Animal Kingdom – although World Showcase/Epcot was a very close second. My favorite rides were: Soarin’, Figment (my 2 year old niece & I rode 3 times in a row), Teacups & Kali River Rapids (I got soaked & my nephews thought it was the funniest thing). We all had a great time and plan to go back next year.

Wow, I love your blog header and whole design, it is really great looking. To answer your question…For our honeymoon in 03 my husband I took a rode trip that worked its way through nation parks and then to Disney Land/World…which is in CA?? All I wanted to do was ride Space Mountain because there is a certain myth around it in my family (explaining it would make this post even longer) but when we got there, there was a HUGE sign that told us Space Mountain was closed for renovation. I didn’t believe it, so I went in and just sat in front of it for a LONG time…So I’d say Space Mountain is my favorite and someday I WILL get to ride it! Wow, I’m long winded this morning…

I’ve never been to Disney World (even though I was in FL for 3 years only an hour away from Orlando! why didn’t I go? Why???), but being a SoCal girl I’ve been to Disneyland a few times. My favorite ride without a doubt is Space Mountain. I could just ride that ride all day and not do anything else there.

Margaret on July 31st, 2008 10:30 am

I’m sure much has changed since the last time I was at Disney World, but I loved the teacups (boring, I know!) and Epcot. We are planning to take our girls there (maybe combined with a cruise?) when they are a few years older and can enjoy the park, so you might be hearing from us then!

***I would love to be signed up for your newsletter.***

My favorite ride at Disney has to be the Dumbo ride. Why? Well one year my mom decided she wanted to take me and my family and my sister and her family to Disney. She was paying for everything (WOW!!!). Airfare, car rental, house rental… you name it. The whole time up to our trip my mom kept saying over and over and over again that she wanted to see my daughter (Kaylee) and my nephew (Jeffrey) ride the Dumbo ride. She wanted to see them together on the ride. I have a younger son and my sister a younger daughter and my mom wasn’t sure if they were going to want to go on the ride so she didn’t talk about them (the did go on the ride after all). But it was like the highlight of my mom’s trip to see my daughter and my nephew riding the Dumbo ride together. She was beaming from ear to ear. It was like she saw the greatest thing in the world. To top it off my daughter and my nephew took Nanny (my mom) on the tea cup ride (oh boy! They spinned it so much it made her sick).

A year later my mom passed away.

Part of me believe she knew she was going to die and wanted a “last hoorah” with the grandchildren before that happened. That is the only thing we can come up with. That is probably why she wanted to see the kids on the Dumbo ride. So she had a happy memory of them to hold on to when she passed on.

Oh gosh!!!! Just thinking about it is making me cry.

Thank you for a wonderful giveaway.

We are taking our first trip there in September with our 18 month old daughter so this would be a great help, because you know Disney can get expensive.

My favorite ride is the tower of terror, but I haven’t been there since the Rockin Rollercoaster or Expedition Everest has opened, so I’ll let you know come October if I have changed my mind!

Thanks for the GREAT giveaway — my fingers are crossed.

WDW is my favorite. So much so we used to get up in the morning and drive the 3 1/2 hours to eat breakfast at the Polynesian when they used to serve French toast stuffed with bananas. YUMMY.

Boma’s is my favorite buffet. It is at Animal Kingdom LODGE. Since all buffets at Disney are one price, why not go with the best tasting and exotic food you can get?

Disneyland can fit in the parking lot of the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. WDW is HUGE.

I love boat ride that took us through a “cave” and sang “It’s a Small World”. I went with my parents when I was young and we got stuck in there for a little while and listened to that song over and over again. I had it stuck in my head for a year afterwards, but it’s part of some great memories!

Jennifer on July 31st, 2008 4:13 pm

Space Mountain is my favorite. I have always loved it since I was a child. We used to go several times a year, and I would ride over and over and over. It makes me want to go to Florida right now and take a ride just thinking about it.

Meredith F. on July 31st, 2008 4:28 pm

I love Disney World! I have only been there once, but I had a blast!! All of the Magic Kingdom was awesome and we had a blast. The rides are just sooo much fun. There was a ride in Epcot’s country tour thingy that was so fun. It was in like Norway or something (I went in 2005, so it was awhile ago.) You get into a boat and it takes you on a little relaxing ride through the legends and history of the country. There was a little surprise near the end and I LOVED it!! If we had gotten to MGM, I know I would have liked the Tower of Terror, because last year, I went to Disneyland with my brother and his wife and we went on that ride like 3 or 4 times! I love those stomach dropping rides!!

I’ve been twice and can’t wait to take my children. We were just in Orlando this past summer and did everything BUT Disney, but vowed that our next trip to Orlando would be Disney and Disney ONLY. My favorite part when I’ve gone has been the castle, hands down. Oh and the character shaped shrubs. OK, and the food.. YUM! Hmm, maybe the characters. And the shows on the street, like Aladdin and the genie, or the ninja turtles flipping down the street. My brother went last year and got his picture with a Power Ranger. My boys freaked out, they can’t wait to do it too! As I said, we can’t wait!

Our family is addicted to the Disney Cruise Line (you have any hints on their new itineraries for the new ships huh do you?) — We have been on two cruises already the Eastern and the Western, and are doing another Eastern this December. But I digress…

My favorite “classic” Disney ride is probably Big Thunder Railroad — however I have come to love Mickey’s Philharmagic (and I hate 3d shows) as well as Buzz Lightyear. I like the Great Movie Ride too! My family would argue they like Star Tours, I can only ride that once!

Thanks for the chance — this gift card would come in mighty handy for all those “incidentals” we pick up on the ship!

I love the Its A Small World ride. It makes me feel so nostalgic. I love the “classic” disney cartoons and Wonderful World of Disney movies from back in the day. I was sad when I read an article that Its A Small World might have to be shut down because people weigh more now than they did in the 60’s and the boats aren’t able to bear the load! I think the obvious solution is just put less people on the boat at one time, like 4 passengers instead of 6? But I’m not an engineer…

I haven’t been to WDW since I was little, and I soooo want to take my 3 boys there–before they get too told to really feel the “magic.” (They are 10, 6, and 4) Living in the Midwest, however, puts us at a bit of a disadvantage because it’s not like we can just bop over for the weekend. I am excited to learn about your services because it’s extremely intimidating to try to figure out the best way to plan a vacation such as Disney. There are so many options and so many different prices! So I’ll be sending you another comment to sign me up for your newsletter as well.

Nice to meet you!

Haven’t been to Disney World, but my favorite Disney character is perhaps Davy Crockett (I know he’s based on a real person, but he’s fictionalized in Disney).

Jennifer on August 1st, 2008 11:33 am

Well the only time I went to Disney was when I was about 13, and for me that was my selfish “I want to be home with my friends, not here with my parents” stage. So I really don’t remember much about Disney unfortunately. Now I really want to go back and experience it! I’m 32 but I love all Disney characters, I love watching Disney DVD’s!

My favorite ride is probably “Haunted Mansion”, my husband’s is Splash Mountain, my nine year old loves Star Tours, my six year old and three year old love Buzz Lightyear and the baby, well, we will wait and see!

I love Disneyland. I can’t wait to take my kids there. We are wanting to plan a trip to disneyworld with some friends. I think when we were in college we chose 2014 as are date. So we are dilligently saving. As for my favorite ride. I love the peter pan ride. I have loved peter pan since I was a little girl and it always brings back great memories as a child. Can I tell you my least favorite? Well I am going to anyway. Dumbo. When I was little I had to take my little brother on it and he sat on the outside. I was scared the whole time because I thought he was going to fall out. So I guess that would be my least favorite. thank you so much for the giveaway. I am so so so excited.

Sarah on August 1st, 2008 4:13 pm

Oh, we love DisneyWorld!! We are going back in January. I would LOVE to win this. I’m still kind of undecided between Expedition Everest and Tower of Terror as my favorite ride, those are both so great! But, my favorite part of Disney World is the atmosphere. Disney does SUCH a good job with the theming, it’s worth it just to stroll around the parks and look at all the amazing details!!

Oh, and I’d love to recieve your newsletter, so 2 entries for me please. Thanks!

I really love WDW but sadly I haven’t been in 7 years! I’m now a mom to two princess loving girls, and we hope to go in the next year! That said, my favorite ride is Pirates of the Caribbean because it was my favorite as a kid. The first time I went to WDW, my sister and I must have gone on it 20 times because it had no line!!

My other favorite thing to do is watch the fireworks at both WDW and Epcot. They are just soo magical! Thanks for the great giveaway!!

Christy on August 1st, 2008 9:25 pm

I have to pick a favorite thing?! This might sound lame, but favorite thing about DisneyWorld is the magic. I love that everything is designed to make your experience there extra special. I think my favorite ride is Pirate’s of the Caribbean (yo ho! yo ho! A Pirate’s life for me!), but the Dinosaur ride in Animal Kingdom was really cool, too. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Brenda F on August 1st, 2008 9:29 pm

Janelle on August 1st, 2008 10:09 pm

I’ve never been to Disney World, but I grew up in Anaheim. Although I haven’t been to Disneyland in about 15 years or so (it was within a year after the opening of the Indiana Jones ride), I’ve been there plenty in my life. My favorite ride was always Thunder Mountain — an old-fashioned-ish roller coaster that wasn’t too fast, but definitely fun. I hear a few years ago though that it was being shut down.

[Reply]
Carissa D. on August 1st, 2008 10:59 pm

My favorite ride is probably Space Mountain. I believe it’s the first coaster I rode and that was at the age of 5.

I went to Disney’s Callifornia Adventure but I could not ride a single ride. They make me sick. I am super prone to vertigo. No sense in poking that monster with a stick by riding something high speed and turney.

I LOVE WDW!!!!

We stayed at the Contemporary last year for our vacation (17 days!!) and STILL didnt get to see everything! My hubby and I went this year by ourselves and stayed at the Contemporary again (gotta love the tower rooms with Magic Kingdom view!!).

There is no way I can choose ONE favorite ride or attraction! I might be able to narrow it down to about 3 at each park! The Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean are absolute musts!! As well as TOT, RnRC, Star Tours, Expedition Everest, Dinosaur, etc……………… (see, I really am bad!!)

I miss the old Submarines. Nemo is cute but it’s not like the original.

1. Leave me a comment telling me your favorite ride or other attraction at Disney World or why you love the place as much as me (if you have never been to Disney World, just leave me a comment telling me your favorite Disney character).

Favorite ride? Space mountain!!!!
Why I love Disney? Because it sends the message that there is hope for all that is good in the world and that good CAN and WILL triumph over evil (or turn evil into good which is equally as awesome.) For eternal optimists like me that message is vital (I get very sad when I start thinking about everything that isn’t good in the world).

Tammy Kennedy on August 4th, 2008 10:15 pm

Tinkerbell is my favorite, although mickey and I share the same birthdate. I have 2 favorite rides.
The wheel of progress and the haunted mansion. I’m sad to hear disney has raised their prices again, I know they need to its just getting hard to take a family anymore. My son is expecting his first child and doing the babys room in winnie the pooh. Can you believe my son is 27 and I still have his first winnie the pooh stuffed animal which is also 27 years old, he is giving it to his new son. Hopefully I will be able to afford in a few years to take my new grandson to disney as they have never been to florida or disney.
We live about 40 miles from disney world so its a joy for me to take people who have never been before and see the look on their eyes.
Thank you so much for a chance to be a winner to get something awesome for my family.
