Disney Backstage
Instead of, "Its off to see the Wizard..." their theme song should be, "I'm off to Disney."
I have been blessed to have become acquainted with four very special people who work at Tropicana Field during the baseball season. Two couples, each having been married more than forty years. Each is different from the other but they share a common enjoyment of the fun, beauty, and pleasure of exploring the Disney Parks.
Dorothy discovered the magic of Oz when Toto pulled back the curtain. This week Ruth, Connie, Don and Frank have traveled Florida's own yellow brick road of unknown dangers, I-4 East to Orlando. Their goal, to share the experience of a Backstage Tour of the Disney Parks.
Although the "Wizard" was not what Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man or the Scarecrow expected, he revealed secrets that ultimately brought each of them that special something that made them happy.
When Connie, Frank, Ruth and Don return to their own homes, I hope the magic they have unveiled leaves them smiling knowing, "There is no place like Disney - no place like Disney."
