I long ago lost track, I have probably been to Walt Disney World 100 times. My brother Gary worked there for 43 years, for several years I bought an annual ticket. I have been there for by invitation only private parties, and in the midst of tourist season. I have been there until the closed, and gone out, had lunch, ridden the train around the Magic Kingdom and gone home. This was the last visit, and it may be my last visit.

I've been to Disneyland a number of times and our last two years in California we lived 10 minutes away and could hear (not see) the fireworks. But I've never visited Disneyworld and doubt I ever will at this point. Florida is not on my list of destinations.
ReplyDeleteI have been to Disneyland once, I spoke at a conference in Anaheim, a short walk away.
DeleteIn some photos it looks so busy. In others quiet. Gary was the driver of one of the vehicles?
ReplyDeleteMy middle brother Gary drove a delivery truck for Disney for 43 years.
DeleteI have been twice. I just never got into anything Disney. Rides, parks or entertainment.
ReplyDeleteI was never a fanatic, it was a relaxing place to go.
DeleteWhy might it be your last trip?
ReplyDeleteExpensive, I have lost interest, it is in Florida.
DeleteGrowing up in California we went to Disneyland quite a lot, and then when moving to Florida Carlos and I went a couple of times.
ReplyDeleteI won't go back to the "World" because of Florida, but I might like to see the "Land" again.
Is there hope for Florida?
DeleteIt's gonna take some work by its citizens to remove the wingnuts.
Delete"...it may be my last visit". Why? Have you only got a few months left to live? Maybe that is why you have decided to retire? I imagined that upon retirement you'd be visiting Disneyworld and Disneyland all the time.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to many years of seeing the real world, instead of the fake world of Disney
DeleteThis brings back memories. I haven't been there in possibly 30 years. However, I was there for the grand opening ceremonies for EPCOT. I got to see Walt Disney give a speech for the opening.
ReplyDeleteBefore EPCOT opened to the public, there were a couple of weeks of private pre-views, testing - I was there for a day.
DeleteI haven't been to Disney in probably 20 or so years. Is the fact that this may be your last time due to the state of things in the "sunshine" state of Ron DeSantis?
ReplyDeleteThe politics are a factor.
