Mickey Mouse. Tinker Bell. Cinderella. What would childhood be like without the magic of Disney? When kids (and let's be honest, adults, too) want to go to "the" theme park, they're heading to Disney. Here you're walking amid people from around the world and meeting characters like Snow White and Donald Duck while rides whirl nonstop and the irrepressible "It's a Small World" tune and lyrics run through your head. You can't help but believe dreams really do come true here.
