“went once because my spouse was there for business. I hated every minute of Disney and our kids didn’t care for it either. Waste of time and money.”
Went there for a conference with my boss. Real Brooklyn Italian. All the way down to Florida he yelled at me. We got to the hotel he was deranged from the flight and train ride. I had a presentation and needed sleep. Would up working till 3 am.
Don’t remember how long I slept but the knock on my door said I was up for the day. My boss is at the door, with ears on telling me to hurry so we can get to the park opening and sit in front for the parade. He wanted to see Snow White. On my day off, preparing for a presentation, I wound up riding tea cups, going on its a small world countless times and had to wait in line for space mountain for 3 hours. He wouldn’t spring for the express line because he didn’t want others to feel cheated.
At that point I knew he was off his meds.
I dislike amusement parks in general. We took our kids to Disney once, that was enough. Crowds, lines, heat, non-stop activities. It was exhausting. When the kids wanted to go to an amusement park after that I took them to a small local one where they could ride and I could relax. We took them to Europe for several weeks, that is the vacation they remember. Probably spent less than the same time at Disney and it had more value.
In Middle school, son was mad when he found out there were places like Knoebel’s and Six Flags. Told him when he grows up he can take his kids.
