Just the Two of Us
On the one hand, does anyone really need yet another visit to the Enchanted Tiki Room, joining with strangers from around the world in rousing choruses of, "The Tiki Tiki Tiki Tiki Room?" On the other hand, there is nothing in the whole world that can replace any experience when it's just the two of us.
My youngest daughter and I spent yesterday exploring the Magic Kingdom together. We both revel in these exclusive experiences. Her wit rises to frightening levels of cleverness, even as she reaches for my hand in the dark. Whether sharing a frozen lemonade, pouring water over her head in the oppressive heat, or selecting the best spot to camp out on the parade route, we enjoy the unforced pleasure and safety of each other's company.
I'm fortunate that any combination of persons in my family is a rich and valued one. But there's a certain something special those times when it's just the two of us.

Very nice post, Karl!
When we went to Disney World, I steered my kids clear of the Tiki Tiki Tiki room. Does that make me a bad father?
