    All 7 American Idols at Disney World

     
    All 7 American Idols at Disney World

    The all-new American Idol Experience opened today to guests at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.  The media premiere held Thursday night brought together all 7 former Idols for the very first time.  What a moment for American Idol fans!  I include myself in that group. I’ve watched the show since day one. 

    Some of my favorites from the night:  Jordin Sparks, David Cook (of course!), Melinda Doolittle, Carrie Underwood.  And Paula looked darling her her little pink and blue tutu dress.I’m an AI junkie.  So it was definitely thrilling for me to be standing on the sidelines of the motorcade watching so many of the idols parade down Hollywood Blvd at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

    Both Jordin Sparks and Carrie Underwood were fan favorites. Carrie was gorgeous, petite and so gracious meeting with her fans.  Jordin was more beautiful in person and had such a big smile.  It was fun to watch the fans take self-photos with the Idols.

  3. Super Bowl XLIII

    "My Super Bowl Team" at Raymond James Stadium

    Game Day has finally arrived here in Tampa. The weather forecast is outstanding, maybe slightly chilly for my Florida blood, but all the visitors will love it.
    For those wondering why am I here – I am part of the Disney team that produces the “I’m Going to Disney World” commercial and helps bring the player to Walt Disney World the next day. I’ve been doing this since the last New Orleans bowl, which I think was 2002. I missed a few in-between for various reasons. All-in-all, this will be my 6th Super Bowl appearance. I feel very blessed and fortunate to have this opportunity. I don’t and never will take it for granted. I love the pageantry of the event, all the hype, all the devotion of the fans for their teams. I had that same devotion to the Miami Dolphins back in the days of Dan Marino and Don Shula. When those days ended, so did my hard-core passion for football. But, it is really cool to see others having so much fun and enjoying the moment.
    So for tonight- I don’t have a favorite team. I only wish that everyone has a great time and enjoys the big game.

  5. Welcome 2009 Moms Panelists!

    January 5, 2009 by Leanne

    The 2009 Walt Disney World Moms Panel is off and running today.
    You’ll see a mix of familiar faces from the 2008 panel with some brand new faces when you visit the site. There are 16 new additions to the panel selected for the year 2009 based on their elite knowledge of the parks and resorts of Walt Disney World. In addition, one mom (Kim) is returning to the panel for the year to specialize in questions about Disney Cruise Line. How about that! Plus, a few of the 2008 panelists will be staying on in 3-month cycles to help answer the many, many questions coming into the site.
    There is also a brand new feature debuting on the site Walt Disney World Moms Panel that provides multiple points of view on a single question. It’s called “Mom Views” and will help give guests several different opinions on an answer – because we all know – we’re all different and have different thoughts about what makes us happy and comfortable. Check out “Mom Views” today!
    And finally, if you haven’t been to the home site for Walt Disney World lately, you need to go see the fantastic make-over! http://www.disneyworld.com/ is fresh and new for 2009 with lots of new content, photography and easy to find information. Have fun but be forewarned – you’ll find yourself sending much more time there than you ever expected.
