While on vacation in Orlando, Florida we of course made our mandatory stop(s) to the most magical place on earth, Disney.
Just because they sell it doesn't mean you should buy it. No wonder I see so many Disney items at my local Goodwill, where else can you wear Disney items like this?
Walt Disney World is an experience while Universal Studios is an adventure, but you know what? I enjoyed both parks.

My son purchased mouse ears for my grandson, who wore those ears all day long during our first visit to the park, but never put them back on again.

| until we left the park at night. |
 |
| We also paid extra to have is name embroidered on the hat. What were we thinking? |
We also spent one day at Universal Studios because we had to see the wizarding world of Harry Potter.

I bet Declan had a fantastic time. And btw, we never found anything with the name 'Danika' already on it, either. Loved your comment about why there are so many Disney items at Goodwill. lol Isn't that true! But so fun at the time and enhances the experience.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it! Its 20 years since we took my two sons to Disney but it was the most amazing experience in the world.I'd love to be able to go back with my grandchildren some day.
ReplyDeleteYou were in my stomping grounds! :) I love Disney, I think for sentimental reasons. Harry Potter is more fun when it's cold (all 5 days out of 365, lol).
ReplyDeleteI nominated you for a Versatile Blogger award, come by and check it out when you have time. :)
Did he like the hogwarts and Harry Potter things?
ReplyDeletethanks to your post, now i cant wait to visit Universal Studios and Disney!
ReplyDeleteMy grandsons will be there next week. The twins will be 8 on the 29th so they should be the perfect age to enjoy it. Love the photos!
ReplyDeleteI've not been to Universal yet, but I have been eyeing the Harry Potter world. BTW, we bought my son ears too. Wore them for about 2 hours and never put them back on. I don't remember what we paid for them, but don't think it was a good investment.
