To me, and so many Disney fans, the Walt Disney World Resort is like a little piece of heaven on earth. All in good fun, here is a list of “shalls” and “shall nots” when visiting this secular paradise.
- Thou shall not have any vacations before Disney.
- Thou shall not consume a Prime Time peanut butter and jelly milkshake and immediately ride Rockin’ Roller Coaster.
- Thou shall give up a seat on the bus for the elderly, disabled, or a person holding a baby.
- Thou shall not be Grumpy at any point- unless your hat or shirt warns everyone around that you are.
- Thou shall not hold a spot in line until the end and then call up the twenty friends who have been playing in the park while everyone else waits.
- Thou shall stay in a Disney Resort.
- Thou shall honor the memory of Walt Disney by going into “One Man’s Dream” at least once in each trip.
- Thou shall have, at minimum, one popcorn, one Mickey Bar and a Dole Whip while on vacation.
- Thou shall walk slowly down Main St., appreciating the vision that occurred so many years ago.
- Thou shall cry while watching Wishes.

Princess Ami grew up going to Disney World when it was young and very small in comparison to today. It was a “World” that spanned only the Magic Kingdom resort area and the E-ticket was king! Disney World grew and Ami did with it, savoring every moment and change. Now that they are both knocking on 40, Magic Kingdom does its Disney magic with 3 more parks. It’s probably not a coincidence that Ami now experiences that new magic with 3 more princesses in tow. The girls are growing up addicted to the magic just as their mom did. Married to Prince Scott, Ami is gradually converting him over to the pixie dusted side! In addition to writing Disney infused blogs like www.disneyparkgoddess.blogspot.com and www.faithtrustandpixiedusted.blogspot.com, Ami is a singer in her Virginia church’s contemporary praise band and a self-proclaimed foodie.
Thou shalt also give up their seat to Mommy’s to be!!!
Good call! Maybe I should have said, “Thou shall give up their seats to those holding a baby (both inside and out).”
=D There ya’ go!
