Hello from SE Pennsylvania

Hello to everyone,
My wife and I are huge WDW fans. We go at least once a year, sometime twice if were lucky. In 2014 we'll be doing the Disney Cruise in April and the parks in December. Can never get enough of Disney! Our greatest joy is introducing other couples to WDW. In 2012 we went with six other couples who had never been to WDW and by the end of the week they were all Disney fans. It was great seeing them all having a great time enjoying the Disney experience. I'm 68 yrs old and my wife is 62. We estimate that we've been to WDW close to 40 times and have enjoyed every visit. We're constantly asked how we can stay enthused about visiting WDW so many times. I tell them that if they really want to find out they will have to go themselves and experience the Disney magic!

We have stayed in just about all of the hotels, everyone from Pop Century to the Grand Floridian however our favorite and the one we stay in most of the time is Port Orleans Riverside. It is a beautiful hotel, the grounds are landscaped magnificently, and the Sassagoula River flows right through it. One of the most relaxing things to do is to hop onto the hotel ferry and travel down the river to the Marketplace where we do a little shopping, have a nice dinner, and sail back up the river to the hotel.
Our favorite park is Magic Kingdom (how can it not be). Each time we visit WDW, the MK is always the first. As we go through the tunnel entrance under the train station and come out at the foot of Main Street we always have to pause for a few moments and silently say, "We're home!".
Our favorite restaurant is the Cape May Cafe and the buffet that is served there. If you love steamed clams, as we both do, there is no better place to sit and eat till you're full than the Cape May Cafe. We always make a reservation for the night before we leave WDW. We also enjoy Le Cellier Steakhouse at the Canadian pavilion in Epcot, Teppan Edo at the Japan pavilion, and the Biergarten at Germany.
I'm getting homesick writing all of this, so I have to stop but I know that we will be there later this year. Can't wait!

For our fellow Pennsylvanians, my wife and I live in the Boyertown area. I noticed there was a reply from a Corvette owner. I've attached a picture of our '97 Corvette. Some day we're driving it to WDW.
