I grew up in a Disney family. It's true. I remember every Sunday night, having dinner in front of the TV while watching The Wonderful World of Disney. (Which, in my opinion, they should TOTALLY bring back.) If I am remembering correctly...and I am...I had my 5th, and 6th birthday at Disney World.
Oh yes I did. We piled the family into an orange Tioga motor home and drove from Tiny Town Illinois to Orlando, and parked at every KOA Campground along the way. It must have taken us forever to do that...what, like 3 days? (3 days...forever...what do I know)
Here's what is SO freaky weird about Disney World. I haven't been there in about 12 years...and yet...we dumped our stuff at the Polynesian Hotel, hopped a monorail to The Magic Kingdom, and made a bee line straight to The Haunted Mansion (and proceeded to do the hallway walk of shame when The Little Man chickened out at the door:/) all without even looking at the map!
The place hasn't changed in like ever. Don't get me wrong...it's completely polished...and clean...it's like I walked in yesterday and was 5...and the next day, I'm Mom and bringing my kiddos. To exactly. the. same. place. I'm fascinated how it's completely updated, and completely the same.
I just love this place. There's something really comforting to me that many parts of it hasn't changed (Except Mr Toad's Wild Ride...Who's bad idea was it to get rid of that ride?)...hope it isn't another 12 years til I make it back...
