<\/p>\nHi, and pull up a chair – or a bean bag, there\u2019s a few of those in the corner over there.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m Helen and I am an unashamed Disney fan. So much so that one of my nicknames at work is \u2018Disney\u2019. I\u2019m the person that friends and family turn to for advice on visiting WDW (Walt Disney World). \u00a0I kept being told that I should set up a business advising people. Well, I\u2019m not going to do that, but I do love talking about going to Disney, as ALL things Disney, so I thought why not set up a page where I can do that.<\/p>\n
I first visited WDW in 1994 after university and had the most amazing time. Only two years earlier I\u2019d returned to the love of Disney that I\u2019d had as a child with the release of \u2018Beauty and the Beast\u2019. \u00a0Nearly 20 years, one husband, and two kids later, I returned to WDW in Oct 2012. The plan was to take the children on a \u2018once in a life time\u2019 trip. They were 8 and 5. It was as amazing as I had remembered and the children were in awe of everything.<\/p>\n
As with a lot of people this \u2018once in a life time\u2019 trip turned out to be anything but. We returned in 2014\u00a0and have been back every year since then. We have stayed off site, on site, become DVC members, had an Annual Pass, and recently discovered the Disney Cruise line.<\/p>\n
So here I am with my own site to talk about my favourite subject – Disney! \u00a0Feel free to ask any questions, and if there is something you want me to write about then just say.<\/p>\n
