Disney is a romantic place to go even when it’s not Valentine’s Day. It’s like being in a dream world a lot of the time where your favourite characters pop up all over the place. I loved it when I was there.

I really enjoyed Disney World and there are lots of good ideas here to make it even more special and romantic. 🙂

The only thing that is against Disney World is the expense. There are some good tips out there to keep costs down but with 7 children it was really too expensive.
