Disney Theme Parks/Quotes

Well it came about when my daughters were very young and Saturday was always Daddy's Day with his two daughters. So we'd start out and I'd take them to the merry-go-round and take them to different places. And as I sit there while they rode the merry-go-round, did all these kind of things, sit on a bench and eating peanuts. I felt that there should be something big, some kind of amusement enterprise where the parents and children could have fun together.
