DH and I are going for a long weekend and he is planning to drive to Melbourne for a full day to spend some guy time with his cousin. He doesn't have any desire to visit the parks (been there, done that mentality) I decided I would hit a couple of the parks solo, not a big issue for me as I'm pretty independent. So I mention this to my best friend and she starts telling me to be very careful because just like people disappear on cruises things like this have happened in amusement parks including Disney. I haven't heard of any recent assaults or kidnappings at Disney but okay, you never know. I'm a very observated and careful person anyway, I never underestimate anything or anyone. Than yesterday at dinner, I tell my mom that I will be going to the parks for the day and DH will be visiting family, she gives him a dirty look and makes some rude remark to him. And than doesn't talk to him the rest of the evening, doesn't even say good-bye! It's not like it's my first time going to WDW and I need to share the magic with someone, goodness! So with all the negativity from others, I'm wondering if I should feel wierd about going alone. I'm not taking the trip alone, I'm spending one day doing what I want to do, it's not like I'll be stuck in a hotel room. My grandmother used to say, "you came into this world alone and you'll be leaving this world alone" so why can't I go to MK or wherever alone???? Anyone else, get this from friends or relatives?
