We all want to know Mickey Mouse's secret to looking so youthful after 96 years! He was born on November 18 with the debut of Steamboat Willie. I can't believe he has been making people of all ages feel like a child again for nearly a century!
Mickey Mouse is probably my first love. I've been a fan as long as I can remember . . . and I still am. Back in the day, my first husband JR and I would plan a mini vacation to Disney World every month. We both worked many hours a week at our long time jobs and had over a months' worth of vacation, so we planned long weekends once a month.
It felt like such a luxury to be annual passholders. As passholder members, we got awesome prices at Disney hotels. Our favorite destination was Fort Wilderness where we would pitch a tent and camp when the weather was cool.
We spent so any hours through the years waiting in line for a meet and greet with Mickey. And it was well worth the wait!
Wishing I could be at the Magic Kingdom to celebrate Mickey's birthday, but I am there in spirit!
