Think you may be too old to visit Walt Disney World? Think again. This amazing vacation spot in Lake Buena Vista, Florida has entertainment for ages two to ninety (and every age in between).

There are four theme parks: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios. There are two water parks: Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. Additionally, Disney even has a downtown-type area called Disney Springs. These parks offer unique rides, classic shows and musicals, exceptional restaurants, animal safaris, shopping, and much more!

Here is a glimpse into why you are absolutely never too old for Disney.

1. Beautiful architecture

Every square inch of Disney is intricately designed. From the Tree of Life's intricate animal carvings to fountains and roads, be sure to have your camera ready!

2. Disney-themed shopping

Don't want to take home useless Mickey Mouse ears as your trip remembrance? No problem. Disney has teamed up with all your favorite brands to provide a Disney-infused product. Take home an Alex and Ani bracelet with your favorite princess or a portable Starbucks cup with different park attractions featured on it. Make sure to leave extra space in your suitcase for the return trip!

3. Exotic animals

Visit Disney's Animal Kingdom to see animals from all over the world. Animals such as hippos, hyenas, giraffes, flamingos and much more! They even have a petting zoo where you can interact with animals such as goats and pigs. This is such a perfect place for animal lovers.

4. "Drinking around the world"

Drinks Around The World

Do you enjoy drinking? Do you like stepping out of the box when choosing drinks? How about trying authentic drinks specific to different countries? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you have to try "Drinking around the world" in Epcot! With 11 different counties, you will have lots of drinking to do! From margaritas to wine coolers, you must try it all! Be sure to pack some water bottles. ;)

5. Typhoon Lagoon's wave pool

Wave Pool

This is the largest wave pool in all of North America. With seven-foot waves, this is not a kiddie pool by any means.

6. Thrill rides

Hollywood Studios' Tower Of Terror

Orlandoweekly.com

Disney is most widely known for rides such as Dumbo, but do not underestimate their thrill rides. Hold onto your hat before boarding these rides. Some of the biggest thrill rides in Disney parks are the Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Mission: Space, Expedition Everest, and the Rock 'n' Rollercoaster. These are a must-do for adventurous Disney-goers.

7. Pin trading

Disney Pin Collection

All jokes aside, this can become extremely competitive. Purchase pins from different kiosks throughout the parks and trade with cast members. Some pins may even be collector's items, so be careful what you trade!

8. Spectacular firework shows

Magic Kingdom Firework Show

Disneyparks.disney

Despite how tired you may be from adventuring all day, the firework shows are a must-see. These shows do not occur until it is dark and leave you with a magical sparkle.

9. Spas

Mandara Spa

Want to relax on vacation? Book an appointment at one of their magical spas!

10. Classic movie-themed restauraunts

Tony's Town Square Restaurant

Want to eat at the same place your favorite Disney character? Make a reservation for places like Tony's (where the classic "Lady and the Tramp" noodle kiss occurred)! Want to eat where Belle from "Beauty and the Beast" did? Go to Be Our Guest! There is something for everyone.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
