Two of my favorite places are Walt Disney World and Washington D.C. \u00a0After just returning from a quick four day trip to DC, I have realized that there are many similarities between these two favorite vacation spots of mine.<\/p>\n

  1. Transportation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Both of these amazing places have great transportation systems that allow guests to travel around the area quickly and with ease. \u00a0In D.C., we are able to travel around in wonderful motor coaches through Superior. \u00a0The drivers are so fun, energetic and great to be around. \u00a0They add to the D.C. experience itself. \u00a0Disney\u2019s transportation is no different. \u00a0The bus system allows for those visiting to travel from park to park or between park and resorts with ease. \u00a0Disney bus drivers are also fun and add to the magical experience. \u00a0\u00a0How easy it is to travel around these two area makes them both a favorite in my book. \u00a0When I don\u2019t have to worry about how to get from place to place, but I can instead can sit and enjoy the ride, that makes it a great vacation destination.<\/p>\n

    1. \u00a0Food<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      One of the main reasons to visit Walt Disney World is the food and surprisingly Washington D.C. is no different. \u00a0Although when visiting D.C. I am usually visiting with over 200 other travels making visiting truly local establishments hard to do, I still enjoy the dining experience. \u00a0From Hard Rock Caf\u00e9 where kids and grown-ups alike can sing and dance their night away to Corner Bakery where one can grab a nice salad and sandwich and enjoy a quieter experience both offer a fun dining experience which I like. \u00a0In Disney, one can experience a variety of different dining atmosphere depending what they are in the mood for. \u00a0From character dining which can get a little crazy to dinner shows like Mickey\u2019s Backyard BBQ guests in Disney can experience upbeat dining if they want. \u00a0On the other hand, if you are looking for a quieter experience, you can take in a nice meal at California Grill or Le Cellier. \u00a0I love food and love it even more when I don\u2019t have to cook it or clean up after it. \u00a0Both Disney and D.C. allow me to experience this!<\/p>\n

      1. \u00a0Sights<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Amazing sights is what draws me to these two great vacation destinations. \u00a0From the outstanding historical sights such as the Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Pentagon Memorial and so many others in and around Washington D.C. to the beautiful natural scenes throughout the area with cherry blossoms and other amazing flowers, trees and sights Washington D.C. never stops taking my breath away every time I visit.<\/p>\n

        \"MFL<\/p>\n

        Cinderella’s Castle<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

        Walt Disney World is the same way. \u00a0From the iconic sights such as Cinderella\u2019s Castle, Spaceship Earth and the Tree of Life to the beautiful scenes like the flower and garden topiaries and all of the detailed flowers and other touches that Disney puts into the sights just like in Washington D.C. it takes my breath away each time and maybe even brings a tear or two.<\/p>\n

        1. \u00a0History<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Being a history teacher, I believe that I am drawn to these two places because of the history that they both hold. \u00a0It is clear to see the history that Washington D.C. has all around the city. \u00a0The monuments, memorials, and museums all hold such history that I am just taken back by all of it each time I am there. \u00a0I go back every year and learn more about all of the history in and around Washington D.C. \u00a0Walt Disney World carries its own history as well. \u00a0I love learning about how Walt came up with the vision for both Disneyland and Disney World. \u00a0Taking in the meaning, thought and background of each ride, movie and show make Walt Disney World so much more than just an amusement park.<\/p>\n

          1. \u00a0People<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            When I reflect on these two vacation places, I realize that the true reason I love them is because of the people I am able to be with when visiting. \u00a0In Washington D.C. I have the opportunity each year for the last four years to work with others to take over 150 seventh graders. \u00a0Where many would feel that this sounds like a terrible vacation, I have loved every one of them. \u00a0From the girls that I have the chance to chaperone to the teachers that I get to work with and the new bus drivers and course leaders I get to know each year these trips are amazing.<\/p>\n

            Family in WDW<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

            Walt Disney World is the same way. \u00a0The reason I love it so much is because of the people I get to share the experience with each time. \u00a0From my wonderful parents who took me when I was younger and started my love to my husband who continues to deal with my love and now my own children which allows me to see Disney through a whole new light. \u00a0Both of these two places are special to me because of who I am able to spend them with.<\/p>\n

            So why is the article about Washington D.C. in a Disney blog? \u00a0Because you need to know that before you go to Walt Disney World what makes the trip is the wonderful transportation, food, sights, history and of course the people you are going to spend the vacation with. \u00a0And if you do every want to branch out (shsh I won\u2019t tell), Washington D.C. is a great place to branch out to!<\/p>\n
