Mousing Around Travel - Michele Turlington
Travel Agent specializing in Disney Destinations. I enjoy helping others plan their magical and memorable trips.
I have been a fan of the Mouse ever since I was a kid but my love and appreciation of all things Disney deepened when I had kids of my own and started visiting Disney with them. Please reach out for a free, no obligation quote.
My apologies that I haven't been posting here much lately. Life has been BUSY!! I have seen a few memes about Maycember and I fully relate! With end of school, extra activities and different schedules plus summer swim season has started so practice and all that organizing plus extra dance demands since our recital is next weekend, I have been very busy! I will be back and hoping to continue to post resort highlights, important info and some great tips.
I am so jealous!! I have a client at Disney and she just met Mando and Baby Grogu. I haven’t met them yet and can’t wait!
Apparently today is International Family Day. Sounds like a great day to plan a family trip to the most Magical Place on Earth!
Fantasy becomes Reality on board the Disney Fantasy Cruise Ship. On the Fantasy you can see a live musical comedy based on Aladdin, ride the AquaDuck, indulge in French-gourmet at Remy's or satisfy your sweet tooth at Sweet on You. There is so much to see and do on board, reach out today and let me help you plan your next cruise on the Fantasy or any of the Disney ships.
Who wants to go to the BRAND NEW Sandals St Vincent and the Grenadines?? You know you do! Reach out today and I will help you plan it.
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party dates have been announced and resort guests can start purchasing tickets Wednesday!! I have always enjoyed the Halloween party!
Looks like we will get some Halloween info this week!!
Happy 13th Birthday to my son, Jack!! We share a love for dinosaurs, Harry Potter and Disney! He is a goofy kid and I love hanging out with him.
Today is National Pretzel Day!! Can't let the day go by without talking about my favorite pretzel, Mickey shaped! I am a pretzel girl and get one at Disney just about every trip.
Tip Tuesday: Ride a Bike!
Did you know that there are a few places on Disney property where you can rent a bike and ride around? This is a great activity for those non-park days. We recently went on a trip around the Boardwalk and had a blast! To find more info, just search "surrey bike" on the Disney website.
Wall-E is here to say Happy Earth Day!
Disney has lots of great deals and promos! Reach out and let's start planning your next vacation!!
For those that have gone to Disney (or any annual vacation for your family) what is one thing you must do every trip? For us, it is taking a picture facing the castle wearing our ears. The cast member had us do this on our first family trip and I loved the idea! This is the picture from one of our latest trips.
I am always looking at cast member name tags to see where they are from (and so I can do cast compliments). I was really excited to find Emily on a recent trip. Her name tag said Slippery Rock University and that is where I went to college!!! So fun to find her and chat with her.
🛶 The wilderness is calling! 🌲
We can now book a stay at the all-new Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness, opening July 1. ✨ Reach out to us and let’s get your next Disney vacation on the books.

Thinking about a trip to Universal? I can help with that!! In case you didn't know, I do more than Disney! I have been to Universal and am looking for an excuse to go again.

What is your favorite snack in Disney?
Tell us the one snack that hits the spot every time. There are so many options, this may be a hard one to answer. It can be a well-known snack such as a pretzel or churro or something that not everyone knows about such as a Wookie Cookie or Cheeseburger Pods.
Happy sibling day to my sister and to my own goofy-Disney loving kids!

Tip Tuesday: Use a travel agent!!
Did you know that Disney (and Universal) have a travel agent fee built into their prices? This means when you book straight with Disney you are paying to use a travel agent but you are doing the work all on your own. When you book with a travel agent, they assist with all your bookings, give tips and tricks and are available to answer all your questions to make sure you have a magical trip.
