Introducing Walt Disney World

At over 20, 000 acres, Walt Disney World (WDW) is not just the Happiest Place on Earth, but the largest theme park resort in the world. It includes four parks, two water parks, six golf courses, a couple dozen hotels, numerous restaurants and even a mega-Disney entertainment district – proving that it’s not such a small world, after all. At times it feels ridiculously crowded and corporate, but if you have kids in tow, you won’t be able to inoculate yourself against their highly infectious enthusiasm. Even without kids, anyone who isn’t scared off from coming by the thought of life-sized costumed characters will likely end up drunk on Disney and clapping their hands because they do believe in fairies – they do! – and wandering home with bags full of souvenirs wondering what overtook them.
