Is 67 hours in Orlando enough time to Rekindle Love?

It all began last February when I met up with my sister and her family in Orlando for a Disney World vacation. It was a typical perfect winter day in Florida with sunny skies and temperatures in the low to mid 70s. We had enjoyed a fun filled morning at Animal Kingdom and had decided to hop over to Magic Kingdom for the afternoon parade. We got there just in time to get curb side seats and a Mickey Mouse shaped chocolate covered ice cream. The parade began with chipper singing and dancing. One by one the floats passed by and then there he was. He looked straight at me and waved! I was mesmerized by his good looks. He was after all Prince Charming.......Ahhh....but then I got another glare from Snow White as she intertwined her arm with his as if to say, “He is mine”. It was at this point that I realized that all the Prince Charmings were taken by one princess or another. My heart sank...


Later that day, we stopped to take a rest on a bench. As we sat contemplating how much fun we were having, we were suddenly interrupted by laughter. We turned to see what the commotion was. As I turned, as if in slow motion, I saw him and our eyes locked from across the walkway. The children ran to him and he gave each one special attention. They laughed and smiled and at that moment I realized that sometimes love doesn’t look like Prince Charming. He motioned me forward and reached out his arms. We embraced in a hug, a long hug, a hug long enough for my sister to get out the camera and take a picture of the special moment....but when he finally let me go we each had to go our separate ways.


As I contemplate my trip back to Orlando this Sunday, I am brought back to that moment and left pondering....Would I see him again? Would it be like that first moment when our eyes locked?


So I have put together this video, in hopes that he may see it and we might rekindle that moment once again!
