Travel Tip
Do it
Backwards!
All the locals know the secret for visiting mega attractions
like Disney World. After passing the entrance gate, instead of
walking to the RIGHT with the rest of the crowds, turn and walk
to the LEFT and circle the park's attractions backwards!
You'll beat the masses to all the rides! You'll be happy you
did!

pianist, organist, dancer, actor and music director in a
