When I was young the USA seemed like this magical far off land where everything was cool and Disney and shit. Even as I got older it seemed like a good place to visit, amazing geography, great food, now I'm going to have to explain to my kids it's some kind of fascist hellstate and that's why we're not going to Disney.
Never go to the magic kingdom. Went last year..... The crowds were crazy, you MUST sign up and use their fast pass phone app to get on any rides if you're lucky..... Waiting in line without it takes 2 hours per ride. I got on 4 rides because of this, and was outright denied from getting on popular rides....fast pass app users only. And there are only so many fast pass slots..... People literally walked around hitting refreshing their phone all day hoping for a slot to open
It sucked, don't come here
The Japan one is far better than the American ones anyway. Highly recommended.
A dear friend of mine immigrated from the UK and was disappointed to find the actual state of America 10 years ago didn't match what they see on TV sets; that crime and homelessness and grimy dirty streets is a thing.
This is a smart, capable adult with a fine education - streets and books - and the ability to reason quickly and sharply. And still he fell for it.
America exports an image packaged better than any Ghirardelli box. There will still be many people experiencing the 'paris' effect for years to come.
