Here is the thing, I am a modest person, always have been. I have never smoked, have no interest in alcohol, don't sleep around (still single), don't gamble. I work hard, take care of my family, pay my bills, save my money. If the one thing I do in life is spend it on a vacation where I am treated like a a princess for a week then why do people care?
Only now have I started thinking about doing a non Disney trip to Hawaii but I haven't gotten to the point to skip a year to fund it, lol
Your description of yourself sounds just like me (except I'm no longer single as of last November). I also found it odd that people didn't understand (and seemed to care so much) that I chose to spend my vacation time at WDW.
That said, while WDW is still my favorite vacation spot, I highly recommend Hawaii. I was there for 2 weeks for my honeymoon this past Winter and visited 3 islands ... it was amazing! Of course, I talked my wife into spending our 1 year anniversary at WDW this November
I made the mistake of answering a 'would you holiday without the kids' thread on a parenting, saying that I want to plan a trip to Disney World without my dd, the come back I got was incredible, I should of known better haha! the most repeated answer is, 'But it's for children, why wouldn't you take them with you!?'
Maybe I'm at an adult age group where it's almost "acceptable"? Like as a 20 year old, my peers all seem to love Disney as much as I do. I do get questioned by my grandfather, but he questions a lot of my interests! lol
So are there actually people my age who get questions like these? And is it more in your every day life, or actually at WDW?
#5 all day...
The money I save not going to the bar each weekend is much more memorable at Disney then the hangover our friends always seem to recall each Monday.
I agree. Though I've never had that pleasure.You're right; if you have to be hungover, it's best to have it after a round of Drinking Around World Showcase.
