I don't know if it was the timing but it was definitely money not well spent.
It saddens me to say but not really... I will NEVER EVER EVER go back to #DisneyWorld again!
My family and I decided to get away for Christmas since we had been through so much loss earlier in the year. I have been to Disney before and had a great time so I knew what to expect. If you have never been let me give you some needed information. You park your vehicle, stand in line for about an 1 1/2 hours give or take a few minutes just for admission and/or check in. After that process you take a ferry or train (your choice) where it takes you to the park itself. Once you get to the park you have to go through a security and ticket check in. Ohhhh bring a snack because that's gonna be another 1 hour+. Already walking bumper, to stroller, to shoulder, to knee trying to walk in the park you would think you would feel a sense of relief once you get in. NO SIR! There are so many people you really can't move just to get across the walkway. By this time it is 3 hours later so we try and find the closet place to eat. Finally make in there after fighting through the crowds of people and the employees telling you which way you can walk. There is a line that is so long you could just cry. Needless to say we stood in line for 1 hour, 48 mins and 53 secs (YES I TIMED IT). Did I forget to mention this was just to order the food? By then I'm so frustrated I ended up "expressing" myself in line because this lady could not make up her mind on what she wanted for her son (a whole another discussion for a different day) with this complicated menu you couldn't help but notice while you wait. Choices: Chicken fingers, Fries, Burgers, a drink. We then had to stand in line for about 48 mins just to pick up your food and when I say I am just standing there waiting for nothing that is what I mean. Its like the minute its my turn they all of a sudden don't remember who was running food on my side. Everyone around me is getting theirs, they checking tickets, and passing out drinks and what am I doing. Just STANDING THERE! I finally say something and after much facial confusion on their faces and 10 more mins I finally get my food. But next question where are we gonna sit? After just eating and all of that my children were ready to go. We tried to stay as long as we could so they could at least see the parades and maybe they will change their mind. But the employees was oh so "nice" about where you could and couldn't stand my children couldn't see beyond all the other adults that had front row seats to every parade and show. We said forget it and decided to leave. We didn't get to ride any rides that day. Because the lines were so long there was no point. They gave everyone fast passes so all of the rides weren't available until about 8 hours+ later. It was just a horrible experience and I felt so bad because with all my kids have been through they deserved to have the best Christmas ever. We didn't get to see a Mickey, nor Mouse, a beauty nor a beast! NOT A ELSA or a ANA not nothing! I will definitely have to make this up to my children. It is just a bummer for me because with me being a single parent I had to save to make this trip possible for us to go it was all #MoneyWasted. Disney promotes the #TheDisneyExperience and if that was it then they can keep it and we can stay home. They were definitely over capacity and need to set a maximum for that day specifically in order to function more smoothly. Well at least my kids got to get out of the state for a few days and the weather was beautiful. Better luck next state. #Disney I am telling my mom and #Ellen on you and she will not be pleased with this!
