Wish Upon a Star with Lance

From our Wish Upon a Star with Us family to yours, we're wishing you a safe and fun Fourth of July celebration! 🎆🇺🇸

I just returned from an amazing trip to an All Inclusive in the Dominican Republic with some friends. We booked it just three months ago. Once we got the idea, I considered all the available destinations, flights, and weeks (that we could go) to find the best bang for our buck.

Why am I telling you this? Because I utilize the same strategies and take the same care for your trips as I would my own. If you get the itch to take a trip, whether it’s weeks or months from now, let me help you find a winner.

Come join us! 75 cabins already sold, and over 240 people in our group. What surprises lie in store? Can’t wait to find out!

Bravo, Ladies! Support women and local businesses. ❤️❤️

Happy International Women's Day! Proud to be a woman-owned business, celebrating the hard work and achievements of the many women who are part of our amazing team!✨

Handsome couples!

Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to plan your next romantic getaway! Whether you’re dreaming of relaxing on the beach, sailing into the sunset together or living out your own fairytale at a Disney park, what matters most is the time you spend together.

So exciting!

We are so excited for Epic Universe, the new theme park coming to the Universal Orlando Resort in 2025! At Epic Universe, guests will journey to five immersive worlds - each one filled with thrills and excitement and bringing to life extraordinary adventures that go beyond your wildest imaginations:

⚡The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, where guests will discover a different era of the wizarding world in an all-new land that blends 1920s wizarding Paris from the Fantastic Beasts films with the iconic British Ministry of Magic from the Harry Potter series.

🎮 SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, where guests will enter the iconic green pipe and discover a new way to play as they step into the worlds of beloved characters like Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Donkey Kong.

🐉 How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, where guests can soar with dragons in a colorful world filled with Viking adventures based on the popular How to Train Your Dragon film franchise.

🧟 Dark Universe, where guests encounter everything from the experiments of Dr. Victoria Frankenstein to the shadowy landscape where monsters roam in a world of myth and mystery.

🌟 Celestial Park will be the gateway to explore the four additional worlds of Epic Universe. From Celestial Park, you'll go through a set of majestic portals that capture the imagination and creativity of each world. Plus, located at the end of Celestial Park is Universal Helios Grand Hotel, designed to transport guests to a world where the heavens and earth unite – complete with 500 rooms, one-of-a-kind views and its very own dedicated entrance into the theme park!

More details will be announced as we get closer to the opening of this new park in 2025! Which of these five new worlds are you most excited for?

I recently returned from my third trip to Disneyland in Anaheim, CA. Every time I go, I’m reminded how much I love it there. Even though it’s much smaller than WDW in Orlando, it’s somehow better. I can’t quite put my finger on why. You get the same level of magic and awe in a smaller, more manageable package. You can really feel Walt there.

All of this to say: don’t pass up Disneyland because it’s “way out in California.” You can usually get there easily via a direct flight to Santa Ana or Long Beach, and when you stay on site, everything is within walking distance (no buses or other hectic transportation to the park each day).
