SPT--Gift of Gifting


The SPT challenge--the gift of gifting. Today we are to gift a stranger. I'll have to say that the only gift I may be able to give stranger today is cooties and a sore throat, so I am digging to the recent past for a gift to a stranger.


When in Disney World we are the best at making use of the fastpass system, sometimes we are so good at it that we end up with unused fastpasses at the end of the day. We always try to pass them along to someone who is in the way back of the standby line. While there in March, Savanna and I road Space Mountain and loved it, we happened to ride with one of the managers and when we got off he wanted to know if she wanted to ride it again...duh, yes please?? So he took us through the back doors right back on the ride. Too Cool!! So when we got off the second time we went back out the join Jim and Jenna and got to give two fastpasses to a mom and son who were in the 60 minute standby line. It was too fun, all the teenage boys behind them were so excited for them, they were like "You Scored!!" So if you get the chance to visit my favorite place on earth remember this little trick that allows you to create your own magic for someone.

Well...I had to save one for the scrapbook!

  2. that's too funny you wrote about this. We were in Disney a few weeks ago and with 4 adults and 6 kids we always had fast passes left over. We too made other peoples day by passing them on. Do you think I'd be creative enough to think of that with this challenge? NOPE! GOOD ONE!~

  3. Lori, we too make great use of the fast pass system and pass on what we don't use. I too, keep one for the scrapbooks! I think we are birds of a feather!

  4. That is the best kind of gift. Someone gave us passes to get into Disneyland once. It was a fun and very helpful treat.
