NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
OH boy, I am so probably going to get flamed for this, but I am bored at work right now, and am reading posts and have to ask this question.
What is the big deal about disney? Ok, I like Disney. I have been there a few times and had fun. But I am not sure I understand the obsession that some people have. Like those who go year after year after year.... don't they want to see some other places? Maybe I am bitter because my ex's father was totally obssessed. Their house looked like a 4 year-olds bedroom, and their dog was named Minnie. Please don't yell at me, I just want to understand.

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
LOL I understand what your saying. Now I do love disney and am going for my HM, but I dont go every year. It is always changing and there is always something to do I cannot just go lie on a beach somewhere, so that is why it is perfect for me. Though people who's whole house is decorated like they are the disney store really is over the top.

I don't get Disney at all. Granted, I've only been once, and it was many many years ago - but I really thought it was for kids that were way younger than I was at the time.

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
I can't explain it. I just love it. I wanted to got o disney world so much when i was a kid and I never got to go, so it became probably a lot bigger in my head than it was. And then FH took me and I just loved it. I love the rides, i love the atmosphere, I love being able to go away somewhere for a week and act like a kid. I'm really young at heart, and I just love disney. The first time I saw the castle I burst into tears, and even now when Ai go, sometimes I just turn to FH and say 'we're at disney!' and get so excited and happy. I don't know. I just love it! Our apt is gonna look like a 4 y/o's bedroom..inf act my bedroom does now. Our bedding for after the wedding has fi;mstills from snow white on it and we have lithographs and cells and disney artists drawings for the walls. I don't know I just love it! And the fact that we got engaged there only adds to it!

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
i'm not one of those obsessive disney-vacationers but i have gone there once every 3 or 4 years. i'm one of those can't-stay-still vacationers so i love that there's so much to do there and the fact that it varies so much between each theme park, the DIsney Village, and even the nightlife at Pleasure Island. It's all in one place, accessible, and affordable. They're also constantly adding new parks and new rides that you can go back in several years and have a completely different trip than the one you just went on.

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
Disney is a totally different experience as an adult and I recommend everyone goes there at least once as an adult. The first time I was there I was 14, and I had a good time, but it could not compare to going there as an adult. I also recommend going during the off season if you are going without kids like september (right after school starts) in november before Thanksgiving. It really is just fun

I don't get it either. I'd take a beach over Disney any day of the week. My Uncle goes twice a year - once to Disney and once on a Disney cruise. They love it! Whatever floats your boat, you know?

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
I agree with mayflower. there's so much to do, especially during special events that it cna be different all the time. I'd go crazy lying on a beach somewhere.
I think it's like vegas in a way, lots of shows, always occupied, lots to see etc.

I LOVE Disney and we went for our honeymoon....I know for us, its a special place because its where we had some of the happiest times of our lives there growing up....We don't go every year but everytime we do go, its magical for us!!!! Of course we plan on travelling to other places but we will always go to Disney!!!! Disney is not for everyone but DH and I are kids at heart!!!

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
We go to Disney every year. Every other year we go with my entire family because my mom has timeshare in Disney. It is so much fun to go with my entire family. On the off years just FH and I go. As someone else said, they are always changing stuff, also we're not beach people so going somewhere where there is a lot to do is awesome. Plus you can't beat the atmosphere. my house isn't decorated in Disney stuff though.

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
I don't get it either. I've never been, and never wanted to either. My parents wanted to take me when I was like 10, and I said no thanks, I'd rather go to a resort! I think it is just too much, you don't get to relax. Plus I am not the type of person that is into rides and all that stuff. I would much rather be at a spa or on a cruise or laying in the sun or going shopping! But that's just me!

I want to add that I fully admit that I am insane.
I have everything from a custom watch hand drawn by a disney artist to disney chapstick. :-P

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
I Went to Disney for the first time at 19 and I enjoyed the more education part in Epcot Center.I do understand how a child would find it truly amazing. I would probably enjoy it much more through the eyes of a child. I look forward to taking my kids there in the future but I am not dying to go back any time soon.

Don't worry Lauren, you're not alone, I don't get it either. I went once when I was a kid and I'll prob take my kids there someday, but for now I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. Tho I do like Great Adventure, they have a lot of good roller coasters!! So consider me a Warner Bros girl, tho I'm not obsessed.

I don't get it either. I guess it's just one of those things that you either love or you don't.

Re: NWR- but... have to ask.. its about all things disney
It's defintiely a get it or dn't thing. like some people LOVE Vegas and atlantic city. I have NO desire to go to either of these places. The ONLY reason i want to go to Vegas is to see Penn and teller. Other than that it has NO appeal for me
