About Me

Once upon a time there was a princess and her name was Lorelei, although she answered to Lori or even "That Disney Cruise Lady" Lori and Ben Lori Ketcherside is a Christian, wife, mother of two, vegan, Texan, allergy mom, bookworm, homeschooler, runner, terrible-though-enthusiastic shuffleboard player, photographer, occasional Passporter article contributor, homeschooler and all around pixie dust nut!  After her grandmother took her to Disneyland in the early nineties, she developed a lifelong love of all things Disney Parks. Over a dozen trips to the World later, she finally ventured into uncharted waters and found her true Disney home at sea aboard the Disney Cruise Line! Lori was surprised and thankful to be a finalist for the Disney Parks Moms Panel for the Disney Cruise Line last fall and looks forward to applying again this fall! On vacation, she can be found in the Cove Café sipping a cocoa, reading on her verandah, indulging at Palo, hiking around the Caribbean or sunbathing in a hammock on Castaway Cay.    She can be found on Facebook, Flickr, Pinterest and Twitter sharing her favorite tricks and tips for all things Disney (with the occasional homeschool mom zaniness thrown in to the mix). Her latest adventures include a "just me and the kids" trip to the Walt Disney World Student Seminars and getting invited to the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration 2015 in Austin Texas.     As it says at the bottom in the disclaimer: All writings and photos are copyright of the bloggers of "Adventures In The Great Wide Somewhere" unless otherwise noted.
