Frances’s favorite ride at Disney is the Haunted Mansion because it has allllll the Disney classic nostalgia, tongue-in-cheekiness (yes, she made that up), and is a piece of some of the original Imagineer's original work. She’s even been backstage to see how the amazing smoke and mirrors happen at the Magic Kingdom! However, Frances prefers the West coast version of the Haunted Mansion as it is set in the classic New Orleans Square, one of her favorite Disney-themed areas.

Sarah is a true Disney adult, having only visited Disney World for the first time at 26 years old, to run the Goofy Challenge (yes, that's the one where you run a half marathon one day followed by a full marathon the next). Needless to say, at some point during those 39.3 miles she fell in love and has been back numerous times since. Her 3 kids are getting a much earlier intro to the Disney magic.
