Disney

We love going to Disney World. We loved going to Downtown Disney a few years ago when Ethan was a baby and Sophia wasn't old enough to know the difference between that and the Theme Parks. Allan and I loved going before we got married and spent time there for our honeymoon. My dream job while in college was to work as a Disney animator. Last year we got annual passes to all the parks. This year we got the Epcot after 4 annual passes. It never gets old. I love the atmosphere and the people and the rides. The kids love looking for the Mickey Mouse electical thing that indicates we are almost at the park. They love spotting the characters at the entrance. I remember when I was there age getting excited about listening to the Disney radio station when we were in range. I'm not sure if they do that anymore. Right now we usually do Spaceship Earth, Nemo, Mexico, and Norway. Sometimes we can convince Ethan to do Journey into Imagination but he's pretty frightened of it. We never have time to do Soarin' because we get there so late and the line is so long. But that's o.k., we're just glad that we could afford some type of annual pass. My favorite thing is going to Turtle Talk and watching Sophia ask questions. Last time we went she asked how far turtles could swim in a day. It was sweet. She was so excited. We ususally leave at around 9 just as the fireworks start. Everyone is tired and we rarely escape without many tears. The last time Kenny surprised us with the most tears as the fireworks started. I have NEVER heard him cry with such pain. Poor thing.
