Why the HELL would you go to Disney if you didn't have kids? As a kid, the park is awsomely awsome and stuffed with awsome with awsome sauce.

Well, if you're a kid at heart like me, deciding to go to Disney as an adult is kind of a no-brainer (especially when you went once when you were 7, don't remember it, and the person you want to go with has NEVER gone). I went last winter with an ex, and we were 21 & 22 at the time.. had one of the best times of my life. Staying in a resort made it pretty stress-free and relaxing (I guess more of an "adult" vacation), but I'm seriously a child inside.. I love all the rides, all of the interactive activities, people watching.. I really enjoy the fact that Disney rides are designed around education. I learned something new on nearly every ride or activity, and I think that's important.
Maybe I'm just a big, childish nerd, but I had a great time. Magic Kingdom was my least favorite of the parks (geared obviously to the littlest kids) but I still managed to not get bored there for something like 9 hours. MGM was a lot of fun (I went the week before Christmas and they had an awesome light show), but I also loved the safari at Animal Kingdom and most of the "space-y and science-y" rides at Epcot. Epcot also had an amazing light/fireworks show at the end of the night that was great. My friend Scrub works at Disney on and off (he's required to put in 30 hours a year to keep his status as an employee), so he took us to do miniature golf and to find some of the other activities at Disney that a lot of people miss because they're not geared or advertised toward kids.
