I’m Giving Away Two Disney 1-Day Park Hoppers Complements of 67 Days of Smiles!

October 17, 2009

Picture This!….

You and your best friend just got handed two round-trip plane tickets to Orlando, Florida with return tickets dated for 67 days later!!!! Along with those tickets comes a digital camera, video camera, and cell phones. You are told that when you arrive in Orlando you will be given a rental car and a fully furnished two-bedroom condo in downtown Orlando with a view of Lake Eola! And your mission for those 67 days is to visit all of Orlando’s most popular attractions! $25,000 is magically transferred into your bank account to cover your bills back at home. Oh and by the way…all of this is swag is FREE!!!!

Not possible you say…Well this precise scenario is happening right now to Kyle Post and Stacey Doornbos. Kyle and Stacey beat out hundreds of applicants from more than a dozen countries for the coveted “Smile Ambassador” positions created by the Orlando/Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau. These two are experiencing 67 Days of Smiles as we speak!

As a Disney fanatic…I can only dream of having some of the Walt Disney World experiences that Kyle and Stacey have had, let alone to be able to share these experiences with my best friend.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to OPEN the Magic Kingdom??? Kyle and Stacey got to do just that on Day 27 of their 67 Days of Smiles!

How would you like private access to Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon? I mean REALLY private…like only 10 people in the entire park and you get a private surf lesson from Professional Surfers from Cocoa Beach Surf School??? Yep! They did it….Day 9!!!

After Surfing at Typhoon Lagoon, this lucky duo got to shop for some surf apparel at Downtown Disney’s Curl and fill their belly’s up at Planet Hollywood like the RockStars they are!!!!

And as if that wasn’t enough Disney goodness…the two of them were able to sit down and shoot the breeze with Celebrity Chef Cat Cora at the opening of her brand new Boardwalk Resort restaurant Kouzzina!!! Yep…like they owned the place!

Day 22…Watch as Kyle dominates American Idol at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!!!

Day 34 provided them an exquisite dining experience at Fulton’s Crab House in Downtown Disney Followed up by a whirlwind experience at Cirque du Soleil’s La Nouba, which is fitting…because La Nouba translates to “The Party”… and every day is a party when you’re Orlando’s Smile Ambassadors!

Here’s Kyle and Stacey’s Slideshow from the Epcot Food and Wine Festival…

Ever gone 145 mph in a car… without getting pulled over? I have!!! Here’s the picture to prove it! And if you want to hear the story about how I got to do it for FREE…read THIS!

Amanda and Alexus Tinney

Here’s Kyle and Stacey’s take on it on Day 45….

Kyle and Stacey have two more days planned to visit the Walt Disney World Resort. Because I love you all so much and because I love giving stuff away, I negotiated some FREE Disney Swag exclusively for DisneyEveryDay.com viewers complements of 67 Days of Smiles and the Orlando/Orange County Convention and Visitors Bureau! And I also set up an exclusive interview with the 67 Days of Smiles Stars in which I will be asking questions submitted by YOU! You’re now the paparazzi! What do you want me to ask them…what questions would you like answered??? It can be absolutely anything! Inspiration available at Kyle and Stacey’s Blog…I will be taking questions through the 19th of October. All you need to do is pose your question in the comments section below this post! When the interview airs, we will randomly select a winner from all of the Questions submitted and that lucky fan will be awarded the Two Disney 1-Day Park Hopper Tickets!

Oh…I forgot to mention…as an added bonus, if you are selected as the winner and you are a friend of mine on Facebook as well as a Member of Kyle and Stacey’s Facebook Fan Page…I will throw in an additional $25 Disney Gift Card.

And if that wasn’t sweet enough…if you are selected as the winner and are on Twitter and are following both@67Days as well as @amandatinney and you Tweet the following two posts…I will throw in an additional $25 Disney Gift Card on top of the other two prizes!!! Here’s what you need to tweet to be eligible for the third prize…Just copy and paste each Tweet exactly as is.

@amandatinney says PLEASE have Kyle & Stacey from @67Days on @TheEllenShow (Please Re-Tweet!)

I just entered to win 2 Disney 1-Day Park Hopper Tickets & a $25 Disney Gift Card from @amandatinney at www.DisneyEveryDay.com

Kyle and Stacey have really been trying to get on the Ellen Show so if you’re feeling generous, feel free to tweet the Ellen post as many times as you’d like! ;o)

That’s it!!!

Until Next Time,

Sylvia

john broadwater

Boy I would of loved to be do what they are doing flor 67 days. But during your stay in Orlando, what was your favorite day of the 67 days?
Monica Rodriguez

Here’s my question:
I know you both are best friends, but is their any chemistry going on between the two after spending 67 days together on vacation (do any of you like each other, other than friends)?

I ask this because I think you both are great for each other!!! It’s been great to have followed your adventure since day 1. I hope you are not offended by my question.
Charlie

In all of your 67 days of smiles, what was your favorite thing to do?
Carol

What was the most unexpected “hidden secret” that you discovered?
Charlie

Do people know who you are when you walk around Orlando? Do they say “Hey! That’s Kyle and Stacey from 67 Days of Smiles!”?
http://sillytatertot.com Katy

I’d like to know — what was their impression of Central Florida BEFORE the trip, and what is it now?
Lora Bollinger

What has been your favorite thrill ride in Orlando?

If you could only take one souvenir home from your trip what would it be?
(psst I also did the facebook & twitter requests)

Hope you enjoy your wonderful trip.

As a vacation of a LIFETIME, how will this 67 day escape into fantasy change the rest of your lives?

NormaJean

Will future vacation be a disappointment after this one??
milliepuig

I went to Disney for the first time after the age of 40. Since then, I have gone to Disney every year (most of the times, twice a year) since then. I am now 57. It’s the best place to live a dream! This was an opportunity that no one would want to pass up, but how did you get your employers to let you go for so long?
Marla

What suprised you the most about being gone on vacation to Orlando for 67 days?
Christine Egitto

Did this fabulous experience in Orlando meet your expectations or surpass all expectations you might have had prior to your arrival? Or (which I rather doubt it could have) did it disappoint in anyway?
Amie Carey

You were both incredibly fortunate to be chosen for this job, and I know you’re probably still amazed every morning when you wake up to enjoy another day of Disney. What do you think was the most important thing you said or did to get you chosen for such a spectacular job?

If anyone asked you to recommend only one thing to do while in Orlando, what would it be?
Sharon

OK Kyle and Stacey – Oftentimes, when a person is interviewed after a big sports win or something really great happening to them, they are asked, “What are you going to do now that you have (insert great thing acheived here)….?” The running joke is always….”I’M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!!!!!!” So here is my question….”After your 67 days of fun in Orlando and Disney World, what’s next for you?”
Frank

What did you miss most about being away from home for 67 days…do you have any pets that you had to leave behind?? That is my problem when going away…who will stay with my dogs
Amy

What was your favorite Halloween activity?
http://facebook Carrie

What is your favorite show at Disney?
Evelyn Sanchez

What would be one word that describe your experience during the 67 days of smile at Orlando?
Katie

Of all the adventures you have experienced, what is your favorite thing outside the “parks” that you enjoyed? We have been three years in a row, but have never done anything outside the 4 parks.

BTW, I am super jealous. I would love to spend 67 days in Disney. We go for 8-9 days every year, and every year, it is not enough!!!
Dawn

I have always wondered what happened after the park closes at night. I picture all these little magical fairies coming out and whisking the park into pristine condition for the next day. What really happens after the last firework goes off in the magic kingdom and the last visitor leaves for the night?

Amie…sorry you had a problem signing up for the Disney Every Day Newsletter. I will add you manually. Keep an eye on your inbox.
Catherine

For those of us that travel from afar and only have a few days in Orlando, what sites do you recommend we spend our time at to really enjoy ourselves? Especially during the down time seasons, when most parks have rides closed for renovations and upkeep? Thanks and have a great day!
Craig Cudmore

Is there any other place in the world where you would like to do a similar adventure. 67 Days of __________ (fill in the blank).
Betty Gurruchaga

Has any behind the scenes operations “spoiled” the magic for you?
Sherry Myers

In this difficult economy, can you recommend a fun, economical way for a family of 4 Florida residents to spend a day in Orlando that won’t break the bank? Is there a one-day excursion or destination (i.e. day trip, no hotel) that a family can enjoy for, say, less than $100?
Tracie

How do you do your laundry or did you take 67 pairs of undies?
jenn

have you found it to be harder than you thought it would be to be away from home and living in a hotel for so long?
kim walls

Was there a point that you thought this is too much and just wanted a day to veg on the couch?
Anne

It looks like you have had a lot of fun. Was there anything that was not fun?
Tara-Lyn

What has been your most eye opening experience?
Monica Rodriguez

Here’s my question:
I know you guys are best friends, but after spending 67 days of smiles in Orlando has there been any chemistry between the two of you?

I hope this question does not offend you…For all I know you could be just great friends(just like family). I’ve been following you since day 1 and it’s been great watchin your journey!
Donna Bertolasi

Your adventure looks like it was a lot of fun! Would you rather the trip had been during the holidays, or a different time of year?

Deb Tee

WOW 67 days of smiles, what an adventure you’ve had! (I’m very jealous!) Just wondering now that your almost done with your Central FLA adventure, would you consider moving to that area of the US?
http://www.twitter.com/KrystalS Krystal

Kyle, would you abandon the bright lights of New York City’s Broadway for Central Florida? Or, are you ready to get back in the spotlight in the Big Apple?

Stacey, are you going to find it difficult to return home or have you gotten spoiled by the gorgeous Florida weather?

Either way, I hope you two write a book documenting your Orlando travels. I would think you two would be Orlando tourist trap experts! =)
Kriss Bigbie

My question to you is “What is your favorite Disney character and why?”
http://facebook Tammy Hunter

Hey guys! I have loved following your adventures. We just got back from a 7 day Orlando stay and loved it! I would like to know if all of this has changed you, do you think your a star? Or just pampered like one! Do you think your life will ever be the same as it was before this started?
Thanks!
