I wish I could say that I loved Disney World but I can't. I can't even understand why other people love Disney World. It was hot, it was crowded, it was expensive, and it definitely wasn't my definition of a good time.
I'll give Disney World this: the lands they have created are spectacular. Kitty and Michael were especially excited about Star Wars land. Even I - a cynical old hag - must admit it was pretty neat. But I don't think that it negates the hours of snaking lines. Or the $6 for a Sprite.
While in Star Wars land, Kitty adopted a porg and named it Porgy. He went on all of our adventures with us for the rest of the trip.
The biggest coup of Disney World was that Kitty and Michael were able to make custom light sabers. They were wicked expensive but their shared experience was worth the cash-ola. Plus, it was a miracle from heaven that they were able to do it.
As we were driving to Legoland, Kitty mentioned how excited she was to build her own light saber the next day. I thought to myself, "Hmmm, I wonder if you need reservations for this experience." Turns out you do. It also turns out that there were no available reservations.
Kitty was devastated.
A few minutes went by with me trying to console her when I had the thought to check again. Right then, a reservation popped up for Tuesday evening at 6:00 for 2 people. I snatched that baby up! With trembling fingers I frantically entered our information and hit submit. It was confirmed and the world was right again. It was indeed a miracle.
We made some good memories but I don't think I'll be rushing back to Disney World any time soon.
(Because I'm a cynical old hag.)
