Pre-Trip Report: Olivia’s Art of Animation Family Vacation (March 2026)

About this episode

Olivia returns to discuss her upcoming family vacation to Walt Disney World, including plans for a stay at Art of Animation.

Olivia, from Soarin’ Around WDW Podcast, is returning to the show. This time, she is planning a trip to Walt Disney World with her husband Madi, and daughters Aili (7) and Blake (3). While the girls don’t yet know all of the plans for the trip, Olivia is looking forward to surprising them with a stay at Art of Animation in a Little Mermaid room. They have plans to visit three of the four parks (sorry MK, they will have to catch you next time) and on two of their park days, they will have a variety of family members traveling to meet up with them for the day.
