*****Disclosure I attending the Disney Frozen Event Press Trip, my flight and expenses were covered by Disney and all opinions are my own

On the Frozen Press Trip we interviewed a lot of people. We interviewed the two directors and the producer inside my favorite building.  Inside is just as magical as the outside, the walls are constantly changing with whatever movie the team is working on. The walls are covered in Frozen right now.

We were able to spend some time with the merchandise.

Where we saw sketches of all the characters.

I learned a lot about my favorite character Olaf and how much he just LOVES summer.
