Stayed away

Yesterday was black Friday and I never go anywhere near a mall on that day or even for a few days after. I just can’t deal with the crowds. I saw on the news a woman was being interviewed about the crowds in the mall and she said that being pushed and elbowed and stuff was all part of the holiday fun. The woman must be crazy or something. I don’t consider being pushed, shoved or elbowed fun.. in fact I consider that being very rude. I’d like to put price on that woman and run her across a barcode scanner a time or two since she thinks it’s fun to be pushed, shoved and elbowed.

I’ll either do my shopping online or wait until the crowds thin out some before doing Christmas shopping… if I can even afford to do any at all this year.

Memories

Back in 1972 or 1973 hubby and I took the 1st of our Disney vacations in Florida. I think they had recently opened and there were not a lot of people in the park. I have pictures to prove it. We took the kids back in 1986, I think, and it was a whole different story. The crowds were huge! The kids had a blast and we are glad we took them.

See the picture below? You won’t see the streets of Disney World looking like that now when the park is open. There were people there… there just weren’t a whole lot of them.
