Our family had the unique opportunity to be invited to the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration at Walt Disney World and on board the Disney Dream. This is a conference that we paid to attend. During the Celebration we received experiences and gifts that were beyond the scope of a typical Disney vacation. I will mention those as I discuss them to properly disclose any of those extras.

I was in sessions for the morning learning about more things that were coming up from Disney as well as some social media tips and tricks from the social media team at Disney. We also got another session on Disney’s Corporate Citizenship and more of what they do behind the scenes. It was even more tear-filled than the previous session. There are just so many things that Disney does to help communities. Things that are not highly publicized. These things were a complete surprise to me.

We started off the morning having a family breakfast at Cabanas. Allison and the kids went to the pool for a while and then the kids went to the Oceaneers Club while she went to a massage at the spa. I went to the theater to attend the days’ sessions. Continue reading Pirates and the Universe on the Disney Dream at Disney Social Media Moms Celebration
