Traveling to Disney World with someone who needs an air sickness bag to ride a carousel? Or who doesn't find whimsy in being tossed about in a spinning teacup? Not to fear. Disney World is actually one of the best places for non-theme park types (yes, they do exist).
Visiting the theme parks in Disney World is an experience that goes far beyond thrill rides. Many of the attractions are not rides at all, but entertainment experiences that you won't find anywhere else.
