Why Maleficent's Manor? Easy yet involved answer: My family and I recently came back from a much needed vacation to Walt Disney World. While there, at The Magic of Disney Animation inside the Pixar Place Area of Hollywood Studios, we were able to figure out which character represents us. My kids and my brother did it correctly and got normal answers. I fudged one answer on mine and that changed everything. I said that I liked to eat people for lunch (instead of have lunch with people) so my character became Maleficent. I am, in reality, not a zombie, a cannibal, or any other type of creature that eats people. I was just having fun with it, and that's what a Disney vacation did to me (crazy, huh? :D). Also, she is (I'm pretty sure) the only character that swears in an animated Disney feature film (wants to send Prince Charming to Hell...though I haven't seen any remastered versions so that may have been edited out for some crazy PC reason, I'm just going with the version I own {shutter...on VHS...shutter}) so of course, she has always been my favorite villain ;).
Why start Blogging now? Easy answer: Ever since high school I have enjoyed writing. I have known for many a year that Blogs have been available, but I just didn't know what to write about. I've always had crazy ideas in my head that "just keep swimming...just keep swimming" around that I have written down {shutter...with a pen on paper...shutter} but have only shared them with a select few people, and as of late, with no one. I figured now was the time to put myself out there with my new adventure, becoming a mickeyvacations.com agent.
What will this Blog be about? Easy answer: This blog will be about things I like about vacationing at a Disney Destination, things I don't like about a Disney Destination, current specials going on at the Disney Destinations, and I will also be talking about resorts and attractions. I will try to post at least once a week, though I can be spacey sometimes so you'll get it when you get it (just subscribe to this, it will be easier :D).
What are the Disney Destinations? Simple answer: Disneyland Resort in California, Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, the Disney Cruise Line with ports departing from all over, and Adventures by Disney that takes you anywhere from your backyard, to across the globe. There are also Disney's Vero Beach Resort (a 2 hour drive to WDW parks in Florida), Disney's Hilton Head Resort in South Carolina, and the new Disney's Aulani Resort in Hawai'i that just opened this past August.
There are also Disneyland Resort Paris, Tokyo Disneyland Resort, Shanghai Disney Resort, and Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (check out their site right now for a cool Halloween game: http://park.hongkongdisneyland.com/hkdl/en_US/home/home?name=HomePage). Alas, I have not yet learned how to book those destinations though. I hope to in the future, if I have enough people show interest in them.
What is mickeyvacations.com? Easy answer: It is the web site I am currently linked to as an Academy Travel Agent to give you information and book your Disney Destination Vacation. Have a look around. When you find something that interests you (and it's hard not to if you're thinking of a Disney Destination Vacation) request a quote. IMPORTANT: When filling out the information for the quote and it asks you if you are working with a specific Travel Planner, choose my name, Shannon Provost, so I will be the one helping you. I'm sure the others are great! But I'm new at this and need the business ;D.
How to contact me? Not complicated answer: email me at shanz679@gmail.com. My official web site will be up as soon as it's ready and I'll post that when it is. For right now though, just email or request a quote from mickeyvacations.com (with me as your Travel Planner) and I'll be on my way to getting you on your way to a Disney Dream Destination Vacation.
