Name: Liz Taylor

Where are you from?  Southeastern Massachusetts

First memory of Disney?  My first memory of Disney is meeting Eeyore as a little girl when I was 4.  He was my favorite character I couldn’t wait to meet him. He looked so sad I didn’t want to leave him, and just kept hugging him.

What makes Disney MAGICAL in your eyes? Disney is magical to me because of the lasting memories it creates.  No matter what age you are, there is something for everyone creating a whole new experience as the years go on.

Favorite Disney destination and why?  My favorite Disney destination is Walt Disney World Resort.  It holds so many special memories for me and my family! As a former cast member of Magic Kingdom it became a home away from home for me too.

Favorite Disney Character and why?  This is a tough one, I love so many characters for different reasons it is hard to choose just one.  First Mickey because without Mickey there wouldn’t be any of it, Eeyore is my favorite starting from when I was a little kid, Belle is my favorite princess, and Olaf is now a new favorite, because who wouldn’t want Olaf as their snowman? J

Favorite Disney Attraction and why?  Wishes!! No matter how many times I watch it (it has been hundreds) it never gets old, it encompasses all the magic of Disney at the end of a night, and holds so many memories!!

Favorite Disney Resort and why?  I can’t pick only one…Art of Animation- the theming is amazing, the family suites are great, and it is my son’s favorite! Grand Floridian- It is timeless and iconic

Favorite Disney Restaurant and why?  Chef Mickey’s- it has become tradition to make it our first dinner on every trip, it holds many memories, the characters and the food!

Favorite Disney Quick Service Restaurant and why?  Be Our Guest! I could sit in the ballroom for hours, it puts you in the middle of the movie. (and the food is great too!)

3 Disney characters you’d like to have dinner with and why?  Eeyore-because he’d be thankful he was thought of, Olaf-because he makes everyone happy, & Flynn Ryder-why not? J

Favorite Disney snack and why? Chocolate frosted brownie with mickey sprinkles- its delicious, and Mickey shaped sprinkles make everything taste better. 🙂

Favorite Disney Movie and why?  Beauty and the Beast – It’s been my favorite since it was originally released…Tangled is a close second!

3 Favorite Disney Songs and why?  Wishes Soundtrack, “When You Wish Upon a Star”, and “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” from Carousel of Progress.

Disney character you’re most similar to and why? Belle- Grew up in a small town and life turned into an adventure, I love books, I am close to family, and even found my own beast J

If you could be one Disney mascot for a day who would it be and why? Rapunzel- I could be a princess and still wear flats, or Olaf!

If you could work at one of the Disney theme parks, what job would you want and why? Magic Kingdom and in the position of Disney Guest Relations- or what some refer to as “a plaid”, Whether as a VIP guide around the park, creating a magical experience for a guest, or to have the ability to turn someone’s bad experience around into a magical one.

Best part about being a MickeyTravels Disney Travel Agent? I am part of an amazing family “Making Magic One Vacation at a Time…”. I couldn’t be happier to be part of such a great group.  I can be part of the Disney magic helping families plan their perfect vacations filled with memories!

Why should I book my vacation with you?   Whether it is your first trip or 50^th, no matter the Disney Destination-Walt Disney World, Aulani, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, Adventures by Disney…I put as much care and dedication into planning each trip as if it were my own!  I want to do everything I can so you to have the most magical trip possible, and memories that will last a lifetime!

“Do what you do so well they will want to see it again and bring their friends” – Walt Disney
