"That's the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up" - Walt Disney
"growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional"- Walt Disney
We like to try to go once a year, and who our family consists of on each trip varies, two years ago it was, ME, DH, DD, DS, DBFF x2, step brother and my dad, last year just DH and me, this year, me, DH, DBFF x2, next spring just me and DS. If we are able we will always give up a seat on the bus for someone, always let a family ride together, we will never get in the way of other's vacations or believe that ours is more important, nor will we expect any extra pixie dust if we are celebrating. We will share in the magic that Walt envisioned and probably never grow up, we will stand in line, enjoy characters meals, travel around the world at Epcot, and yes I will go on FEA, and no it doesn't bother me that my group of 4 adults may cause a 5 year old to wait 12 more seconds for the ride. Yes I have been questioned a. why do we go so often and b. isn't that for kids
If it was just for kids there would be no TOT or Food and Wine festival and it probably wouldn't cost what it does now.
We have been treated rudely in the past just before a parade started where a family of 6 just showed up as it was approaching and told us to move so them and there kids could see, normally we will let a kid in front but not the whole group, this was not acceptable and grandma decided to try to move DH with her
scooter, luckily a CM was near by and told them to move on. I am tired of being judged for taking part in the magic, I am polite and I am nice but I also save and plan my trips, and we deserve to enjoy it as much as anyone else, it doesn't matter if you are 4, 14, 39 or 86. Just have fun!
