Goodbye snow! I’m going to sunny LA! ‪Come follow along with me! #‎PirateFairyBloggers‬ ‪#‎FrozenBluray


On a cold a snowy afternoon, I got an email that made me feel warm and happy inside!  I was invited to a very special Walt Disney Studios trip to celebrate the upcoming In-Home releases of THE PIRATE FAIRY, and FROZEN!!!! Sure there is about two feet of snow outside, but I will (hopefully, if mother nature lets up on the snow a bit) be going to sunny LA, for some great warmth for one... LoL and of course some great behind-the-scenes look at the making of THE PIRATE FAIRY and FROZEN including interviews with filmmakers and the creative teams behind the films! This is a Disney lover’s dream come true. Getting to see the back stage, and see how things are made is so wonderful.

Getting to have a Q&A with Director, Chris Buck and Producers, Jennifer Lee and Peter Del Vecho from Frozen, will be amazing. Frozen is one of my favorite Disney movies of all time. It is an instant classic, that will be loved for generations to come. And being able to record my voice on a cartoon character? This is a bucket list item for me! Who hasn’t wanted to be a cartoon character, at some time in their lives? Well I get to voice one, this will be the highlight of the trip for me, I am sure. I am sure it will be hilarious… I hope we can do a voice over for Olaf… I will work on my best Olaf impression just in case.

We will also be touring the iconic Walt Disney Animation studios, where everything began. I was very fortunate to visit the amazing place, and I cannot wait to return. I will be able to visit the DisneyToon studios for the first time to see where all of the cartoon magic happens. I will be able to see the Walk through the creation of “Zarina”, The Pirate Fairy from story to character design to animation. 

I have always wondered how the characters were created.. and now I can see how it happens from beginning to end. So exciting. I will also be joined with 24 or so other lucky bloggers, I look forward to making new friends, and connecting again with other friends.  May of the bloggers are my friends online, and it will be great to meet them in real life. I cannot wait to share all of my adventure on this whirlwind trip with you all!
