Everyone has their “must-do” activities at the Walt Disney World Resort and my family is no different. We always use Disney’s Magical Express so we don’t have to worry about our luggage or renting a car. Our first park is always the Magic Kingdom. The sight of Cinderella Castle at the end of Main Street, well, it is heaven for me. I’ve arrived! Our first attraction is always Pirates of the Caribbean. During any trip, there are always multiple Mickey bars, a churro or two, perhaps a turkey leg or a Dole Whip. Besides all of the attractions, shopping is a must for me. My home is filled with lots of great memories in the form of t-shirts, pins, dishtowels, salt and pepper shakers, etc. There are also yummy frosty beverages, usually while walking through the World Showcase at Epcot. And the food. THE FOOD! So many delicious choices. We have some favorites but we also love to try restaurants that are new to us.

My husband’s tradition – he sleeps on every mode of Disney transportation that exists. Yes, he can nap anywhere.

I think one of my favorite traditions is capturing my family in pictures. The one picture that I must get every visit… No, it’s not in front of Cinderella Castle (though we get that as often as possible). It’s a picture of my son next to the snowman in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This year, it’s our Christmas card picture.
