Saw a kid puke in the pool once on a Disney cruise. You shoulda seen those cast members come running in full hazmat suits and shut down the entire deck! A finely tuned machine, like swappin tires at the Indy 500. If Disney ever got into the military-industrial complex they would take over the world. Worth every penny.
I took my kids in lieu of them having birthday parties one year. We told the person when we checked in and they gave us a few stickers that said "It's my birthday!"
Everyone in every park who saw that sticker stopped and wished my kids a happy birthday. The guy sweeping up trash on Hollywood Boulevard, the cashiers at Epcot, the housekeepers at the hotel, everyone. Even Cinderella stopped marching in the Main Street parade to come over and say "Happy Birthday!"
I get that they're a horrible, soulless corporation but damn do I appreciate how special they made my kids feel.
So give your kid a birthday sticker if you go. Got it.
