I'm a big fan of Disney, but I may enjoy it now even more after seeing this video of a hot AF Disney park employee saving stranded guests.
I go to Disney World in Orlando a few times a year. I'm not much of a thrill ride girl, but I love every one of the parks, and enjoy the more slow-paced rides like Spaceship Earth, Na'vi River Journey, Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. There have been a few times that rides have stalled, but never have I had to be evacuated. In fact, one of my favorite stalls was earlier this year on Haunted Mansion. It stopped right at the scene where the ghosts are dancing on the ballroom floor, which was cool because I feel like I noticed some things in that room I didn't notice before.
But sometimes the rides do breakdown, and full evacuations are necessary. That exact thing happened the other day on Magic Kingdom's Pirates of the Caribbean. And while that in and of itself isn't a headline, what has got people talking, is that a hot AF Disney park employee saved the guests that were stranded.
Going on a family vacation is something we look forward to for many months leading up to. Lots of families here in Southwest Florida look forward to spending time away at one of the many theme parks we have here in the Sunshine State.
Tampa is only a couple of hours away from us in Fort Myers and Orlando just about an hour longer. From Universal Studios, Busch Gardens, Disney World and Sea World, the choices are endless.
There is however one downside to these fun family vacations or trips. What do you do with your furry friends? Sure, there are plenty of pet friendly hotels across the state, but what will they do all day? Most times when visiting theme parks you're there for the majority of the day. Your pup will get hungry and restless and have to go potty long before your day at the park is done.
While it would be nice to strap a leash on them and take them along, that's just not an option, or very realistic. Imagine all the accidents that could happen with an endless number of pets in the parks?
But, there is another option, according to Go Pet Friendly. Did you know some of the largest and most frequented parks in Florida offer day care? And a couple of these parks will actually allow your pets inside.
Let's take a look at the options you might have for your pets while you enjoy the park with family and have peace of mind knowing your pet is having fun too!
