They are all 12+, though, so they are over character meet and greets, don’t care much about normal parades, have seen the fireworks and shows, and understand we just need to be grateful for what we CAN do. I think for us it will be the little things that we miss most - the stretching room in the Haunted Mansion and other pre-show stuff that might not be happening, favorite restaurants being closed, etc. We were there last year when the world shut down, so this will be a very different trip. The kids are used to wearing masks all day at school, so that will probably be harder for the adults who have been working from home this whole time! I wouldn’t even consider going if this was our first trip, but I’m so happy to have something to look forward to. Forgot to mention that we all just got over Covid, so we feel safer about traveling right now, although we realize there are many variants that could still be an issue. It’s just nice to have a small semblance of normalcy in what has been a crazy, frustrating, sad, and disappointing year in so many ways.
