I have to admit, as much as I love having unlimited entry to all the theme parks, one thing I do miss is the excitement that used to come with visiting them with my parents when I was younger
Back then, it wouldn't happen very often, maybe once every couple of years, because entry was expensive for families, year passes even more so -back in the 90's I remember I got my MW one for around $150, and that was a half price deal So it was always a major occasion when it did happen... I'd be up for most of the evening prior because I was too excited to sleep lol. It was pretty much the same feeling you'd get on Christmas eve, then waking up Christmas Day
The annual passes and memberships these days are awesome, they are so cheap that almost everyone can afford to have them. I love having all the parks as my second home and being able to visit them whenever I want. They are great boredom busters too, particularly on days when finances aren't the best, you have the day off work, and you don't want to sit bored at home.
But yeah, I no longer feel that anticipation and excitement I used to feel because I visit so often. It's been made way too easy now lol. It has taken the initial thrill out of the visit.
Does that make sense?
Bittersweet, I guess you could say!!
