i confess part 4 {disney world edition}
i confess… the first time i went to disney world, in 2001, i was scared i wouldn’t like it. i’d been wanting to go for so long, i was worried i’d be let down after having built it up in my mind for so many years. but nope, i fell right in love with it!
my first time ever meeting mickey mouse!
august 2001
i confess… i both love and hate the wealth of information out there about how to enhance the park experience. i love it because of all the neat stuff i now know, but i hate it because everyone and their mommas know it too. and somehow that makes it less special because everyone wants to be special. #disneyhipster
i confess… the chocolate covered pineapple i had on my last trip continues to haunt me because it was JUST THAT GOOD.
i confess… i wasn’t sure about all the changes happening at disney and i almost skipped out on going this year because of it. magicbands, fastpass+, all the preplanning one has to do now. but you know what? i went on the trip with all that and still had a wonderful time.
i confess… disney amazes me with how it brings magic to kids of all ages. there are people in forums who say that they never get “magical” moments when they are not with kids, but i find that not to be the case with me. i’ve been given free stuff, gotten hugs from strangers, even been selected to be in a parade, just to name a few of the cool things i’ve had happen to me.
i confess… i like mickey’s not so scary halloween party just a tiny bit better than mickey’s very merry christmas party.
i confess… meeting a princess still gets me all starry-eyed.
especially if it’s princess tiana
i confess… every time i go without aidan, i feel guilty. so that’s why i always immediately book a trip with him to happen within the year.
i confess… taking my mommy to disney was one of the best things i’ve ever done. she loved the trip so much and i loved making her so happy. i don’t think i’d ever seen her smile and laugh as much as she did on that trip.
look at her smile! and this was even before she’d ridden soarin’!
i confess… i have been to disney world 10 times and i still can’t wait to go back!
