Planning another trip to WDW, and I leave in a few weeks. I really need a vacation. Five days at Shades of Green with side trips to Universal and SeaWorld. It's been a year since I took my last vacation and I flew across country to Disneyland and took in the sights in Anaheim and at Knott's Berry Farm.
Anyway, a few trips ago at WDW, I spent early morning magic hours at Hollywood Studios before continuing onto EPCOT. While walking through Hollywood Studios, it was around 9am, and I was near the Indiana Jones stunt show. I was passing a mother and her young child, and I noticed her child was eating something sweet. I think it was some kind of dessert.
I asked her why she was allowing her child to eat a dessert in the morning, for breakfast, or as a mid-morning snack. She said they were on vacation and home rules don't apply. Or I think it was the mom said the kids had control for a day and they could do anything or eat anything and mom and dad would not get in the way or disapprove.
They were in the midst of a kid-controlled day at WDW. They had one day to do anything, at any time, and her son chose to eat a Mickey ice cream bar. In the morning. For breakfast. They skipped away without a care in the world.
I thought it was amusing. I laughed and said I would agree and thought of what I could do, at any time, drink anything, eat anything, at any time of the day, and don't feel weird about it. Of course, I thought about it but didn't enact on it.
In the next few weeks, I will enact upon it. I wonder if I can get a dessert or something super-chocolatey or sugary before 9-9:30am. I'm not talking about an espresso or cafe au lait or cafe mocha or even a danish or croissant or big banana nut or chocolate chip muffin or even beignets. I drink coffee all the time. No, how about a beer or two a glass of wine or two before 10am.
I didn't inquire last time, but I should.
What do you think? If you have kids or not, would you enact a "kids-control the day" day at WDW?
