Visit Disney
Walt Disney started out as a cartoon artist and as his cartoons grew, so did the advances in technology. Soon animated pictures were the newest way to project cartoons, and his characters came to life in movies and on television. Before his death, Disney had become as household name around the world, and the empire that he left behind is now a media conglomerate worth billions of dollars, with extensive properties and gigantic mega amusement parks located in various parts of the world. The two best know locations are in California and Florida. In Orlando, Florida, the Disney company has so much of a presence that it nearly owns that whole part of the state, and its considerable influence is felt throughout the political machinery of Florida, where the company enjoys unprecedented tax incentives and favors from the government which makes hundreds of millions of dollars of tourism dollars from the Disney owned attractions. If you visit Orlando, you can stay in a Disney themed hotel and then spend days on end exploring the Disney theme park, along with Epcot, a supernatural science and entertainment center opened to the public. Prices are relatively inexpensive to enter the Disney grounds, but you can expect to pay lots of dollars here and there for such things as snacks, rides, and souvenirs. Although hundreds of different package options are offered, they all focus upon kids who visit Disney World having the time of their lives while mixing it up with such characters as Mickey, Minnie, and Donald Duck.
