Hi all! I'm new here. Forgive me for jumping right in, but I've been wondering something.
My husband and I are both in our late twenties. He's mentioned going on some sort of 5 day getaway in late spring. I know he was thinking of Vegas but we've been there twice and I'd like to try something different.
Nobody shoot, but I've never been a real big fan of Disney cartoon characters. I mean, sure I like a lot of the movies, but I'm not like, nuts about any of the characters or anything. Never have been. My husband was born and raised in East India so it he was never even exposed to Disney stuff until adulthood. He likes theme parks in general, but he's not a big fan of Disney cartoon characters either.
However even though I'm not crazy about Disney stuff, I'm very much a kid at heart. I adore the idea of castles, princesses, haunted houses and stuff like that. My husband's much more of a dare devil/adventure person.
We're by no means anti-Disney! We're just into the more tweenage stuff like Princess Diaries and Pirates of the Caribbean as opposed to Cinderella and Mickey Mouse.
So, I guess my main question is, would Disney World still be a good place to visit even if you're not much of an "ears" person? And is it so Mickey saturated that ever single place you turn you're met with a cartoon character or illustration? Since we don't have kids, we might feel kind of funny being bombarded with cartoons all day and I'm just not sure how it's all set up over there.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
