by now most of my friends and coworkers either know why and get it, or they just know that's me and I'm going, so I think most of them aren't really surprised anymore, and don't give me the look. When I do get it, well sometimes I go solo so I get the "But she doesn't have any kids/ a family... *confused*" look. My parents are the biggest naysayers, I love them but they are very cheap. My idea of a vacation, Disney or not, is a bit different than theirs although I can be a penny pincher too
I suppose, as someone who doesn't take kids to Disney, is that like most of us Disney is my happy place. Also, it's somewhere I feel safe travelling to alone, and know my way around. There are other places I'd like to go for vacation someday. I'll wait and go there when I'm taking someone with me. If I'm travelling alone, I like Disney because I know how to get a good deal, feel safe there, know how to get the best bang for my $$, and know I'll love it. It's also something I CAN do alone. Planning a solo trip to one of the other cities I'd like to visit someday (but have never been to) is a lot more daunting.
