Mermaid And Her Mer-Dad At Disneyland
He should save that picture for when she's 15 and starts to think he's too much.
There have been quite a few fairy princess and mermaid dads and that is ultimate dad power.

Data suggests that the top reason people go to amusement parks is to spend quality time with friends and family. Surprisingly, only 14% of visitors cite rides as their motivation for going, while 11% go to escape reality and relax.
Other things that encourage people to visit amusement parks are treating family, entertaining kids, meeting popular characters, purchasing gifts/souvenirs, and redeeming points and vouchers.
Whatever the reason for their visit, amusement park guests have the most fun when they enjoy outdoor attractions, scenic views, roller coasters, water rides, live shows, animal encounters, and immersive experiences.
My Boyfriend And His Friends Have Been Pretending To Be Body Guards For One Of Their Choir Mates All Day In Disneyland. This Is Them At Splash Mountain
I love all the creative pics people take at this spot. There are a lot of hilarious ones.
This is so much fun! I love the energy that men can bring to things, when they’re their best selves.
I saw a stag group in Prague on our last day there, the friends were all in matching t shirts, but the stag was dressed in a replica of Lady Diana's engagement suit. To be fair he was rocking it. I wanted to go to the same bar they were going t see what eventuated, but Mr Auntriarch refused and insisted on going somewhere else

Judging by the look on the dog's face, the service dog needs a service dog for that ride.
No, he is saying "Janet, go faster, we are running behind!"

Disney seems to nail every visitor’s boxes, as their Parks and Experience division runs eight of the world’s top 10 most-visited theme parks. Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, USA, is not only their most visited location, but it is also nominated as the most visited amusement park in the world, with a whopping 17,720,000 visitors welcomed in 2023.

They Were All Super Nice And Really Beautiful. I Also Proposed To Gaston Because That Guy Was Hilarious
I was there once when Gaston challenged the crowd for a arm wrestling opponent. This really wiry guy accepted. Totally smoked Gaston. Turns out the guy was a blacksmith IRL.
lol i thought that was Blaine! hope he's doing well since RT shut down.
Why is it so popular, you may be asking? Well, many Disney fans consider the Magic Kingdom to be the quintessential Disney experience, with a sea of cartoon characters and 107 acres of rides and attractions.
The 7 ‘lands’ the park is divided into evoke nostalgia, from the Wild West to the jungle and space. All of it is complemented by rollercoasters, parades, street performers, and the most popular Disney characters brought to life. Not to mention, it has the original design of Cinderella Castle.
Well. He’s Not Wrong
Just leave your wallet and credit cards at the gate. We'll (maybe) give it back to you at some point.

When Dad Takes The Boys To The Waterpark (We Are 24)
You go there to have fun, even if it costs your weekly budget. This looks like fun.
The last time me and one brother and my kids went and did all the rides/slides at a water park me and my brother were in our 40s.
However, not everything is as magical as Disney perhaps would like it to be. The two main things that people are complaining about are the cost and the busy crowds. A one-day Magic Kingdom ticket at Disney World varies from approximately $139 to $199 for an adult, depending on the date of the visit. So imagine spending around $1,000 for your whole family to visit a park with another 48,500 visitors that overcrowd restaurants, shows, and rides.
A Love Triangle
That looks like the same Minnie from the pic with the dude taking a smoke break.
Nope! Smoke-break guy's not a real Disney Minnie Mouse - shoes are wrong.
Load More Replies...I believe there is a dirty joke from years ago that references this, having to do with the reason that Mickey and Minnie got a divorce.
That's the very joke I was thinking of after seeing this photo.
Load More Replies...Keep Arms And Legs Inside The Rollercoaster
I used to date a guy who was born without all the fingers on one hand. At Halloween he liked to freak people out by dressing up as a chef with a cleaver and fake blood. He'd then scream and hold his hand like he'd just chopped off his fingers. 😂
I can't decide if that guy in front is bored to death, or about to cry.

If you look up "unimpressed" in the dictionary, you will see this picture.
“The truth is, you spend more time WAITING than actually DOING a LOT more time,” shared journalist Alan Karmin at Tripsided. “Spending 60-90 minutes waiting in a line for a 2 to 5-minute “experience” is not that uncommon. Seeing wait times in excess of two hours is also not that uncommon [...]. If you have only one day in the Park, and you have to wait so long to experience each attraction then what kind of value are you actually getting for your money?”

Amusing but this is not at Disney. Interesting fact, Mickey is usually a female cast member as he should be small
Load More Replies...That's not at a Disney park. Not the right costume. Wrong shoes - Minnie's are yellow.
The journalist also draws attention to the price of food. Without any of the “specials” tacked on, it will cost $1,600 for a family of four to simply sustain themselves,” he said after doing the math. “You want to eat with Mickey, Minnie, Winnie the Pooh, or Stitch? Add on an additional $100 per person…another $400.”
My Wife And I Went To Disney World. Also, The Kids Came
There is something magic about Disneyland. When you walk in, you immediately regress in age!
I'd have loved to have seen my parents doing that. It was always a big deal to my sisters and I if we saw them holding hands in public.
Now those kids will be scar for life, huge bills to the psychiatric visits will be constantly, etc, etc! (J/k!)

"Go To Disneyland" They Said... "It'll Be Fun" They Said
Same! That's hilarious! Not for that poor guy, however. 😁
Load More Replies...That said, Disney isn’t the only amusement park with such issues. Many other big, popular amusement parks have similar prices, averaging from $70 to over $150, and they’re likely to have overwhelming crowds. So if you’re looking to have a relaxing and wholesome family time without having to stand in lines for the majority of your time, you should probably skip going to the biggest players out there.

Considering the origin of it, good riddance. (Not that it's not fun for some people, though not my thing, but the source material is so bad Disney tried neuralizing people into thinking it never existed)

Those sets are expensive, Mr. Sbow won a Y-wing starfighter at a work raffle. At regular stores that set is $200. Probably twice that price at a theme park. I'd hang on to it too.
I love the Creator sets. I have a bunch of the modular building ones, and yeah, they’re usually around $220. I spent extra to get the police station on Amazon because it’s retired. Oh, my little town!

Comments say it was a calm boat ride, but OP captioned it as her first DROP ride.
I didn't notice that, tbh. I'm not a native speaker, so maybe I didn't identify it as a splash ride.
