Hi! My name is Lesley and I'm excited to be a guide for the WDW Feasting and Snacking: The Eateries, Globetrotting, and the Globetrotting Trip Report forums. My first encounter with Disney was watching the Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights when I was growing up. It was the only night of the week that the TV was on during dinner. We would set up TV trays in the family room and all watch it together. In 1965 when I was 10 years old we drove from Illinois to California to visit Disneyland. The ride was worth it! I fell in !

When WDW opened in Florida we had to go see it. I first visited in the summer of 1972. We stayed at the Polynesian and had an amazing trip. I've been back to DL once and WDW many times. I've been to the World as a child, as a young adult, with my kids at various ages and most recently as and adult without kids. My most recent trip was for the Decade Of Dreams this past May. I stayed ate AKV-Kidani on opening day, the Contemporary, and Saratoga Springs - spending a week at WDW with friends I've made through the PassPorter boards - life doesn't get much better.

Traveling is one of my passions. I visit Las Vegas once a year. I have traveled throughout the U.S. with some of my favorite places being Mackinac Island, San Francisco, Sanibel Island, Boston, and New York. I've been on 3 cruises (including my first DCL cruise in May 2008 - the Westbound Panama Canal 15 day cruise) and in November of 2005 I had the opportunity for a quick trip to England. I hope to get back there soon.

I am divorced and have 2 children. Beth is 25, living on her own and working for a PR firm in downtown Chicago. Sean is 23 and recently graduated from college with a major in vocal music education. They both love Disney as much as I do and can't believe I have made several trips to WDW without them.

I enjoy the time I spend on the Passporter boards and hope I can help to make others feel welcome here.
