Not sure that this has anything to do with anything but what the heck? I'm on an imposed vacation until Thursday so I don't care.
Myself, a friend and his daughter came down to Orlando in 2012. We came to watch our alma mater Georgia play Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl. My friend told me that we would be going to Magic Kingdom on 12/31/2012 as that was the only place he felt his daughter could really get his moneys worth. I was not excited. I hadn't been to a Disney park in years and had no need too. We got up way too early and got into the park. Honestly it was like being a kid again. We did Pirates, Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder, Country Bears, Tiki Room, Haunted Mansion, Swiss Family, Philharmagic, Tom Sawyer's Island, Peoplemover, Stich's Great Escape and Buzz Lightyear. We split later in the evening and I did Space Mountain for the first time in 20 years. We watched the fireworks and got back to our condo around 3 am (the game was at noon). It was exhausting.
During that day we were trying to find somewhere to eat lunch. I went into Liberty Tree Tavern and asked if there was anyway we could get in. A rude cast member basically laughed at me. After about a year or so I Googled "Liberty Tree Tavern Sucks" and found a review with John, Kevin, Shaun and the DIS.
Since then I've watched just about everything. I don't know if and when I'll get back to Disney parks. I've been to Disney Springs multiple times since then. My family took a Disney vacation a few years ago but I did not go because I didn't feel it was economically in the cards.
I guess my point is be thankful. These guys put up great content and don't charge. If you are fortunate to be one of the ones that comes all of the time be grateful. Some of us can't and this is our escape.
Peace.
