Tuesdays Tips: The Animation Academy

There is so much to do at Walt Disney World, that often, there are hidden experiences that get overlooked. The Animation Academy was one of these for me. I knew we had something similar in California, but I did not realize we had one here too! If you have always wanted to learn to draw the classic Disney characters, meander on to Hollywood Studios Animation Academy!

The experience runs all day long, so just show up whenever you are looking for a nice seat and some cool air conditioning  In the same building as the Academy you can also meet Sorcer Mickey, Frozone and Mr. Incredible, Wreck It Ralph and Venelope.

TRADITIONS!

This is possibly one of the most important days in my Disney career. TRADITIONS! Honestly, I can't say too much about this morning. I got up at 5:30 am, did some God-time, grabbed breakfast, then changed into my business clothes. Because we have to look sharp(Disney Look) for Traditions, it was heels and a pencil skirt.

No better way to start my Disney day.   :) 

I jumped on the bus to Disney University. This building is amazing. I wish I could take pictures, but unfortunately, it is all backstage Disney, so no photos allowed. Let me tell you, if you ever have the privilege of working for Disney and your Traditions class takes place in Disney University, you are in for a treat. Just imagine the best Disney magic you can in a school environment. ;)

Tuesday's Tips: Character Videos

There is nothing like the characters at Disney. They have literally stepped out of our favorite movies and we get the chance to chat with them! Today's tip is for a unique character souvenir. Tired of the standard autograph book? Looking for a new way to tell friends and family that you missed them on vacation? Grab a couple of your favorite Disney pals for a video they will never forget! 

Magical Mondays

Welcome to my first Magical Monday! Every Monday I will be posting either stories or pictures of magical moments happening around the parks. Today's post: Chip and Dale!

Because who doesn't want to be proposed to by a chipmunk?

Of course, I said yes! 

I just love these guys. They really are a hoot! 

What are some of your favorite character interactions?
