Ways to Honor Loved Ones while at Disney?

[hoodedenchantress]

I had a lot of very nice connections with people because of the bubbles. None as deep as that one at the fireworks, but a lot of smiles and hugs and kind words from people I had never met before.

Think of a memory you have with your Dad at Disneyworld. Think if there is a way to share that with others at the park. I don't think there are physical plaques or things like that being offered any more at the park, but you can imprint his memory in the minds of people you meet.

This is wonderful. I'm sure your mom was smiling from above to see you bringing so much cheer to those around you. My father was definitely a diser at heart- plan everything to the T making sure we all got to enjoy the most of what Disney had to offer. One thing I'm sad we never got to do together was ride space mountain. Most of the times, I was just too small to go, but I remember being too scared that last time we went. It's been nearly 17 years since then, and I think one of the first things I have to do at MK is dedicate my space mountain ride to him. We will finally get to ride together after all this time.

I think this is an amazing idea. While reading this, I remembered something I'm doing on my trip. My dad was always dragged along to see characters, from the time I was 7 until 18 (our last trip together). And somewhere along the line, he started to love it. His favorite characters were Jasmine, Goofy and Tigger but I'm planning on getting a shutter fly book of all his pictures with characters and then get it autographed on our trip and give it to my mom for Christmas.

So many special memories with special people. How lovely!

About the lanterns: they are indeed beautiful, but in some places they are considered fireworks. Please be careful as a breeze can carry them for a few miles and they may still be smoldering or quite hot when they land' posing a brush fire hazard. Sorry to be a downer.
