Yeah, the magic seems to go away once you grow up. And then you want things like incest and infanticide in your fantasy worlds. Or just a ton of sex. Or extreme complexity. Disneyland is none of these things. I think if the kids had to pay, they would understand a bit better. Good synopsis in any case... but do you have any resolutions??
Or booze. It makes those negative feelings just go away. I'm pretty sure it's why Vegas is such a popular vacation spot... and I still don't understand why people would bring children there.
