I have 2 little girls that will just love the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique when we go to Disney World. I can’t wait to visit The Art of Disney for new ideas on decorating their room. That sounds great!
I’ve wanted to go to Disneyland and I finally got the chance to on my honeymoon last month! It was everything I expected and then some between all the shopping and theme park rides and our beautiful hotel room I really did feel like I was in a Magic Kingdom!
I went to all of the Disney World parks a few years ago and had the time of my life. Magic Kingdom is truly magical. The fireworks at the end of the day was definitely my favorite part. Meeting all of the characters is really exciting too. I’m taking my husband next week for our honeymoon and I can’t wait for him to experience it!
My sister and I went to disney world and had a blast. We enjoyed after the fireworks watching tinkerbell fly down. It was truely a magical experience.
I havent had the opportunity to go to Disney yet, but it is something that I would like to do with my family. I think my girls would love to do something like that.
I can’t wait to take my girls to Disney World next year, there is so much to see and do that I’m sure we won’t have time to rest!
I love shopping at Downtown Disney. There are so many neat Disney shops and plenty of cool restaurants to choose from! The whole atmosphere is just a cool thing to experience at night with all of the people and entertainment.
Oh! I would love to go to the Rainforest cafe I really love rainforst animals and all the beautifyl vines
