Erin Foster researched and responded to more than 11,000 guest questions as a charter member of the Disney Parks Moms Panel (now the planDisney Panel). Erin has visited Walt Disney World; Disneyland; Disneyland Paris; Hong Kong Disneyland; and the Disney Vacation Club properties at Hilton Head, South Carolina; Vero Beach, Florida; and Aulani in Hawaii. She has also taken Adventures by Disney (AbD) journeys to four continents, including AbD’s European river cruises. And, of course, she has been on many Disney Cruise Line sailings on the Magic, Wonder, Dream, Fantasy, and Wish. She was among the passengers on the maiden voyage of the Wish in 2022. Erin is a regular contributor to the blog at Touring Plans. When she isn’t traveling, you can find her attending theatrical performances in New York City. Len Testa is coauthor of the Unofficial Guides series, covering Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Las Vegas, Universal Orlando, and Washington, D.C. While Len has published works in travel, computer science, and endocrinology, it’s widely acknowledged that he’s just the pretty face for a group of people way more talented than he is (and “pretty face” is a stretch at best). Len sends love to his daughter, Hannah.
