Meeting Princess Elena of Avalor

Charles Johnson

During my recent trip to Walt Disney World, I was able to meet one of my favorite Princesses, Elena Castillo Flores of Avalor.

All it takes is Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust, and anyone can visit the nook in Pixie Hollow where Tinker Bell resides.This young Tinker Fairy can always find use for Lost Things from the Mainland and turn them into machines to ease the workload around Neverland.

Everyone needs a little push in the right direction to get their dreams going, and Tiana is no exception. Clashing with the evil Dr. Facilier alongside her Prince, Naveen, they were able to undo his Dark magic and share a magical wedding in the Bayou.

What would you do if you gained a lamp, a Genie and three wishes?Well, maybe you'd be living the life of this lucky couple, because Princess Jasmine saw the good in Aladdin that no one else seemed to see.

Everyone who's a fan of the Disney Princesses knows this familiar face, because Cinderella had hope that one day, she would turn her life around. That day came sooner than she expected when her Fairy Godmother appeared and offered her a chance to go to the Royal Ball, where she met her Prince Charming and had a chance to live her dream.

Here's another Princess who wanted to realize a dream.When Rapunzel met Flynn Rider and escaped Mother Gothel's tower, the two made their way to Corona to watch the Floating Lanterns over the lake, while also falling in love.

I was looking to visit Princess Ariel, and fortunately, her Grotto was open to the public.She talked with me about her adventures in that sunken ship, and also explained her daughter was about to start school.(Well, why not? Summer's almost over, and school's about to start a new year, so... yeah.)

Looks like I was incredibly lucky while on my trip.Not many people get to meet Anastasia and Drizella Tremaine, but apparently, I was in the park at the right time, because they're currently in the middle of their Halloween celebration.(And let me tell you, these girls are not as evil as people think.)

My luck held out while I was visiting Walt Disney World, because meeting Belle while she's wearing her trademark yellow ball gown is rarest of the rare.But, here we are, and all because I'd received a part in the reenactment of her story.
