From my first visit as a child, the first year the World was open, I remember eating at the Sara Lee bakery on Main St. They had cheese danish (a new food for me!) that my family loved. And we still love Sara Lee baked goods because of our Disney memories. (Pay attention, sponsors!)
Over the years I've visited Disney World with family members (including an 85-year-old aunt who loved it!), high school classmates, a boyfriend, and now my husband. Each group I was with, and each age I was brought different experiences. I enjoy seeing the World through other people's eyes.
My mom recently told me that my favorite first cousin, returning exhausted to our hotel room from the Magic Kingdom, said to her, "Now that was one perfect day." He had a difficult childhood and many sad things in his life, and it makes me so grateful to know Disney gave him that perfect day.
My dad and my sister have passed on, and my dear first cousin and I aren't really in touch, but I have the photos and the memories always.
And my husband and I are going to be making more memories when we visit in February!
