More exciting news for us cruise-loving Texans! 🤠🛳️

I’m excited to share that the all-new Carnival Tropicale will set sail from Galveston in 2028, building on more than 25 years of our partnership with this incredible port. We were the first cruise line to homeport a ship here, and the first to welcome more than 10 million guests, and we are proud to keep growing our presence in Texas. With even more opportunities to experience the fun we are known for, and a Texas star proudly displayed on her bow, Carnival Tropicale is our newest way of celebrating the Lone Star State.

How do you pack your little kids for a Disney vacation?

Organizing yourself beforehand and using a good packing system can make an overwhelming Disney trip feel more manageable & your mornings run more smoothly.

I always packed my kids clothes in gallon ziploc bags labeled with their names. Each kid had a ziploc for each day of the trip and each ziploc had 2 complete outfits. One outfit to wear and the second outfit to go in our backpack for the day in case of emergency.

What are your packing tips for Disney with kids?

How cool is this? Also, everything is better when mickey-shaped.

On this Earth Day, it’s amazing to know that Walt Disney World Resort now has a solar facility which can power the daytime of needs of the entire property ☀️

When there is a sunny day in Spring or Summer, four solar projects can produce up to 100% of the daytime power needs of the entire resort. That’s for:

- 4 theme parks 🏰 🌐 🌳 🎥
- 2 water parks ❄️ 🌊
- 32 resort locations 🏨 🏕️
- Disney Springs shopping/entertainment district 🛍️
- 4 golf courses ⛳️

The newest solar facility is a 74,500-kilowatt, 484-acre site in Levy County, FL. Spreading the energy across multiple locations helps Disney not rely on the sunshine power from just one location.

This new facility joins three others, including the fan-favorite giant “Hidden Mickey” solar design situated near the entrance of EPCOT! 🌞

Travel can be unpredictable.

It’s often stressful when you are forced to deviate from your plans.

But don’t miss the beauty or laughter or little moments that happen when you find yourself off course.

Apparently I hired a new social media manager without even knowing it.

My Dad sent me an email with the subject line "Get your passports ready & you can make it happen".

I opened the email with curiousity - is he about to take us all on a vacation?!

The email body was empty. This image was attached.

Seems my 80-something year old Dad is a better social media marketer and AI image creator than me, and honestly, I'm here for it!

Soooo, are your passports ready? I can make it happen!
