      1 Corinthians 15:1-4
      KJV Bible
      [1] Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
      [2] By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
      [3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
      [4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
      Ephesians 2:8-9
      KJV Bible
      [8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
      [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast.
      Romans 10:9-13
      KJV Bible
      [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
      [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
      [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
      [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
      [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
      John 3:16
      KJV Bible
      For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
      John 14:6
      KJV Bible
      Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

    Pro tip: if you're looking for a ride you can repeat once you get bored or tired of standing in 2+ hour lines, try Pirates of the Caribbean. Mind you, it's been eons since I was at any Disney park, but the last time or two we went I'd take my kid siblings and we'd go default to POTC while everyone else did whatever. The line actually moves, and the ride is long and indoors and thus nice and cool between the line-standing sections.

    Love the Dolly commentary! So I’ve been to Disney World a few times. Once when I was 3 and remember nothing. Again when I was around 10 and my dad’s company did a conference there. We got an all-access pass, a three-day stay at The Grand Floridian, and a park-hopper for two days at the parks. That was awesome! Then we went on our own dime when I was 12, 14, and 15 and we realized that if we stayed in a non-resort hotel and only had one meal at the nice theme park restaurants we could do Disney World for about $400 less. But the real break-through came when we realized we could have an entire day at Disney Springs and do everything we did at the parks except the rides. Great restaurants. Great entertainment. All the same shops. The huge gaming center. And the movie theatre that had bowling! Thus it became a tradition to go to Disney Springs for my birthday. Including gas, spending cash, food, and a theater ticket or performance ticket, it typically costs about $700. The most expensive thing is always the meals. And last time we were there (2017) we discovered something else… you are totally allowed to enter a theme park without paying for a ticket if you’re only going to shop. We did this for one of the parks that has a big shopping center just inside the main gate. It was like a big circle of stores. They didn’t stamp our hand or anything. They just told us we would be detained if we tried to enter the second main gate and would be forced to pay for a full-price park ticket for each member of the group.
    I haven’t been back since before the world went on lockdown. Hoping to go this year. Curious to see if all the perks are the same or if they’ve made more rules.

    Went to Disney World several years ago, but it was as part of my high school choir that got selected to sing at the Candlelight festival right around Christmas time. Still had to pay for the trip, but it was a lot of fun to sing alongside the professionals at Epcot, and it was interesting to see a tiny fraction of what goes on behind the scenes. At the end, they gave all of the students special edition Mickey Mouse hats that only the students participating in the Candlelight festival get. It was honestly really fun and a very magical experience.

I think at that time it was more than any of the cars i had purchased in my life. It took a little bit of meditation, lots of deep breathing exercises, hugs and prayers to get me past the shock and it's more now. Dont know if I'll ever go back when i think of the price and what else we can use it for if we could save it up. Love the t-shirt!

    Basic annual pass as a Floridian was a godsend. Paid for one day then upgraded and paid like 60 a month afterwards. I lived an hour drive away and would go at least once every two weeks.
    Pass gives you free parking, food perks, merchandise discounts and free park hopping. All together, at the time it was like 5-600 dollars for the the pass, without the water parks add-on. We had a pool and the beach is like 15min away. Was doing like 30 trips a year for the price of five. Parking alone is like 20-25 bucks without the pass.
    Then covid happened and I opted out. There was no way I was wearing a mask on top of being temp checked at the gate and possibly kicked out after an hour drive.

    Even if I won the 1.5 billion dollar drawing tonight, I would never go anywhere near a Disney facility. I would rather be staked to the ground, on top of a fire ant colony, in Death Valley, with my privates slathered in honey, than deal with one of those parks.

    I consider myself a Disney Nut, (Disney World is my Graceland, to more sincerely quote Ace Ventura), but I'm actually someone with some sense imo.
    Why go to Disney World, knowing you won't be spending much time at your hotel and even if you were, (you'd want your hotel to FEEL Disney, instead of just feel luxury)...and still waste more money than you need to staying at Grand Floridian.
    I've only stayed at Port Orleans French Quarter and Riverside (Riverside is better imo, but they're both lovely), but it's still far cheaper and fascinating imo than Grand Floridian or Polynesian. The most interesting thing about GF is that the music video for "Kokomo" by Beach Boys was filmed there.
    Meanwhile, Art of Animation has larger-than-life statues of Disney films, (albeit only 4), and Pop Century likewise has larger-than-life statues of all sorts of retro and vintage items dating back to the 50s, and a few Disney characters.
    Not to mention, the Port Orleans pair, even with the Bourbon Street vibes of French Quarter, are just so much more relaxing and laissez-fair in terms of people traffic. (I like Riverside more for it being even chiller and relaxing than French Quarter; plus the Magnolia Bend and Alligator Bayou buildings look better).
    Edit: NOW...if you actually want to spend money at one of the higher end hotels, (Grand Floridian, Polynesian, Animal Kingdom Lodge, Wilderness Lodge), even if the Disney vibes aren't as strong, that's all well and good. Just make sure your trip INCLUDES spending a good amount of time at your hotel, otherwise...again...what's the point of burning your wallet like that?

    I had to wait ten years (or maybe twenty) to ride “It’s a Small World.”
    Technically, not kidding. I was, obviously, not in line for ten years, but the ride was closed (repairs?) when we went ( to Disneyland, not Disney World) the first time. We went (to Disneyland, again) the next time ten years. Actually, I think it might have been closed then, too, because ten years after that I finally went to Disney World and I remember really wanting to go on “It’s a Small World” and I think that’s because I had never actually been on it before. Not worth waiting twenty years. Probably would have been fun when I was six (how old I was for the first trip).

    • @dawnreneegmail

      as a wee one, sure. As an adult, by the time you get out of the boat-car one is generally ready to run trying to escape the drone of the tune IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL playing over and over the whole 5 minute trip and while one waits in line. I and probably many others laud the fact you've missed this misery on the planet, no loss!!
