Name: Kim Thompson
Where are you from? Nashville TN
First memory of Disney? 2003 Taking my then, 2 year old and 7 year old and seeing through their eyes.
What makes Disney MAGICAL in your eyes? Its like being in a cartoon. It’s the only place on earth a grown man can walk around with Mickey ears on and no one bats an eye. Its such a family oriented environment its hard to not get involved and wrapped up in the magic of it all. Your truly do feel like a kid. You forget about all the problems and stress on the “outside”.
Favorite Disney destination and why? Walt Disney World in Florida. You can’t replace Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and all the resort choices!!
Favorite Disney Character and why? This is a tough one!! Im torn between Ariel and Maleficent. Two total different characters. Ariel because she’s a bound and determined kinda girl who will stop at nothing to get what she wants and Maleficent not really sure. I have been fascinated by her since I was a kid. ( way before the movie! J ) I think it’s the black cloke and that really cool staff she carries around J
Favorite Disney Attraction and why? Hand down its Tower of Terror. The theming is unbelievable!!! The rides pretty fun too!
Favorite Disney Resort and why? The Polynesian, castle view room. You can escape back to your resort. Relax on the balcony while watching Tinkerbell fly over the Magic Kingdom and then watch, what seems like, your very own firework show.
Favorite Disney Restaurant and why? Be Our Guest. Your eating in the Beasts castle. Its like being in the movie. I could sit there all day and admire the Imagineering at its best!!!!
Favorite Disney Quick Service Restaurant and why? Flametree BBQ. Its just wonderful! The smell gets you before you even get to the building. You can find a nice quiet table back by the water and enjoy your meal.
3 Disney characters you’d like to have dinner with and why? The Genie because I would like 3 wishes, Prince Eric because he’s pretty dreamy and Olaf because he likes warm hugs J
Favorite Disney snack and why? Dole Whip, nothing else like it ANYWHERE!!! So refreshing and pure Disney!!!
Favorite Disney Movie and why? Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. They are the ultimate fairytales.
3 Favorite Disney Song and why? “Les Poission’s” from The Little Mermaid. I love to sing it while Im cooking. “Are We Dancing” just makes you want to twirl. “Reflection” by Christina Aguilera from Mulan. Its so endearing.
Disney character you’re most similar to and why? Princess Tiana. Because I have had to kiss some frogs before I found my prince.
If you could be one Disney mascot for a day who would it be and why? Cinderella. Some would disagree but to ME she is the Queen of the Magic Kingdom.
If you could work at one of the Disney theme parks, what job would you want and why? I would love to be a VIP Tour guide. You get to walk the parks all day! Your scenery will be constantly changing.
Best part about being a MickeyTravels Disney Travel Agent? I get to help families with their dream vacation. Its so special when my clients will text or call me while on vacation and tell me how much fun they are having.
Why should I book my vacation with you? Because I will treat your vacation like my own. Family time is special and sometimes limited. I do all the work for you so you can be with your family making memories. I leave no detail untouched.
