Walt Disney World Will Always Be My Favorite Vacation Despite My Age

No matter how old you are, you are never too old for Disney!

Walt Disney World Will Always Be My Favorite Vacation Despite My Age

Growing up, most of my family vacations were in sunny Florida and included at least a few days at the most magical place on Earth. Now that I'm grown, it's crazy to think I get even more excited planning trips to WDW. Here's why that's never going to change.

As a child, nothing compared to the excitement of waking up bright and early to head to the airport knowing that by the end of the day I would be surrounded by Disney magic. I would get starstruck waiting in line to meet my favorite princesses, spend hours in "The Sea" so I could participate in countless shows of "Turtle Talk With Crush," and sing the "Enchanted Tiki Room" theme song on repeat until it didn't sound like words anymore.

As I got older my interests changed, but my enthusiasm about going to Disney World did not. Every trip was a journey. Each vacation I looked forward to being tall enough for new rides and exploring new adventures. Disney is completely magical in the sense that it can cater to every child's age and even all adults of different ages.

Now each vacation is special in a different way. I love being able to recall past visits and reflect on the memories my family had made. My favorite flashback is always when I was little I would go with my dad to the food court of our Disney resort to get breakfast for the family; now when I go I love making that walk in the cool Florida morning air even if it's alone simply because it reminds me of spending that time with my father in our pajamas before a fun day.

While I may not be old enough to state that no matter your age Walt Disney World is the best vacation, I am confident it will always be. As a child, you see the magic, but as you get older it's even better- you see the magic..and the memories. Almost every moment I have had in Disney World my parents witnessed. They were behind me taking it all in because to them I was the magic. The best memories I have are the ones I don't even remember, but make my parents smile and laugh every time they share the stories.

Walt Disney World will always hold a special place in my heart and something I can't wait to share with my own family one day, but for now, I'll just look forward to planning my next trip!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
