Our Trip to Walt Disney World Orlando

I was a little bit skeptical about our trip to Walt Disney World Orlando. You see, I never went to Disneyland or Disneyworld as a kid, and I don't think that I missed it very much. This might be hard for some of you to believe, but it really is true. Disney cartoons were not a big part of my upbringing. My parents didn't really believe in TV, preferring to read to us whenever possible and have us learn to play music instead of watching movies and playing video games. At first, I resented it. All my friends were getting to go to see these exciting films that I was missing out for the most part. Soon, however, I got used to it. I even enjoyed it. Books are a much deeper form of entertainment after all, things that stimulate the mind rather than mesmerize it.

As a parent, however, I believe in giving my daughter a greater degree of choice than I had. I should have known that it would come to this eventually. Watching Disney movies growing up, it was only a matter of time before she asked to go to Walt Disney World Orlando. After she asked to go to DisneyWorld Orlando, it was only a matter of time until the begging started. To be fair, there wasn't really any reason why we shouldn't take her. She was a good kid, and I know that Disney is magical to people her age. Soon, we had plans to go on a Walt Disney World resort vacation.

Our Walt Disney World Orlando vacation started off rather inauspiciously. The plane was delayed by several hours, and rather than getting in at about five in the evening, we ended up being delayed until well after midnight. My 10-year-old my daughter was pretty good about the whole thing, but even so we were all very unhappy and grumpy by the time we got in. Nonetheless, the next day we were ready to start our Walt Disney World Orlando adventure. It was a lot better than I expected. Everywhere you looked, there was something grabbing your eye for attention. Every night, there were fireworks in the sky. It wasn't really my kind of scene, but I have to admit that I could see it through my child's eyes too. Even I can't deny that there is something captivating about Walt Disney vacations!
