Spending five days having fun at Disney World and Epcot Center for the first time is a blast at any age. It seemed to be the perfect time to go in the fall as the weather wasn’t so hot. As luck would have it, each of the four theme parks was beautifully decorated and lit up for the holidays.

Epcot’s Showcase pavilions for eleven countries around the world was interesting, but geared more to adults.

Animal Kingdom and Hollywood studios were both very exciting and entertaining as well. We captured several candid snapshots of animals and studio action stunt shows there.

Everyone should go to Disney in Orlando at least once in your life and if we could give any one tip it would be to wear comfy shoes (being on your feet for up to twelve + hours will take its toll).
The place is a national treasure as far as we are concerned, with more to do on one vacation than even the most seasoned traveler can cram into one trip. Out of all the Disney Parks, Magic Kingdom was a favorite. It is a hoot to see Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald Duck, and all the Disney characters in extravaganza parades each day bringing out the kid in everyone.
The castle at Fantasyland is spectacular lit up at nighttime along with amazing fireworks each evening. All we can say is Disney World is truly the most magical place in the world, and if you have an opportunity you should go and truthfully enjoy it! Stay on their property, they do all the driving and let you immerse yourself in Disney magic.
