One of the great opportunities we were given at Disney Social Media Moms Celebration was recording our families on a ride. We chose Dumbo, because for me it is one of those attractions I cannot miss when I go. I remember riding it as a little girl, waiting patiently in line because *gasp* there were no fast pass options back in the day! Yes my kids were shocked to hear that. You waited in line all the time?
Don't worry, I didn't leave my husband out. He is riding in the elephant behind us!
After we finished our ride, we stayed on for another trip on board the Flying Elephant. This guy was excited to steer again. You'll notice in the video he was having Dumbo jump up and down. Crazy driver!

I was invited to the 2015 Disney Social Media Moms Celebration. I paid a conference fee to attend and received discounted & complimentary items from Walt Disney World and their sponsors. I was not asked to write about my experiences at the conference. All opinions are my own.

We go to Disney every year, so we’ve been on that ride a million times. Actually, we’ve skipped it the last two or three times we went because my kids are getting a little too big for it.

What a fun vacation! Lots of happy faces! And I love seeing moms getting out there and mixing together at conferences, Disney even better!

So cute! We went in January and I miss it every day. I don’t like heat much so it’s fun to go in January but in truth, I’d go to Disney any day!

This ride has been around for many many years, since I was a kid and I am 41. Definitely a favored classic!

Aww I remember that ride. It’s a classic! It’s awesome that you guys were invited there!

Aw, how fun! Dumbo is the book of the moment at our house right now, so my kiddos would be so jealous! Definitely an oldie but a goodie.

The Dumbo ride is of course legendary! Sadly when we went to Disney, we didn’t ride it!

Awww I loved Dumbo as a child. The story is such a classic. I don’t think I’ve ever been on the ride though. Looks like fun!

I have never been to Disney but this looks fun. I do love Dumbo.
