Good welcome all.
I was digging around at home the other day and came across my old travel diary from years ago. Contained within is a trip report from my fourth trip to WDW, back in 1997. So, I thought I would transcribe it verbatim, and post it here for your enjoyment.
Firstly, I was 14 when I wrote this, so I think this report captures WDW quite well from the eyes of a teenager. Since I really could not remember very well my first three trips (being 2, 3 and 6 years old on them), this was the first one that really stuck in my head, and the wonder and awesomeness of the place took a really great hold. Some of you may not have visited WDW as a kid or teen, and so I believe this may give you an insight into what it really is like for a youngster.
Secondly, this trip report is nearly 16 years old. WDW has changed a lot since then. So, there's the nostalgia factor too.
Finally, as I said, I was 14 when I wrote this, so it's not a brilliant piece of work. Also, there's a whole bunch of random information. I have copied the text almost word for word, only correcting spelling/punctuation mistakes, and replacing the name of my brother with the phrase "my brother", since I do not want to use real names on here (except mine of course - hence the username!).
So are you sitting comfortably? Then I will begin!
