The Happiest Place on Earth Will Now Serve Alcohol

As any parent knows Disney World can be a stressful environment. Let's be honest after a couple hours of you and your kids running around the park, you could use a drink to relax. Now alcohol has been available at all the other parks except for one and after 41 years Disney will be bringing alcohol to the Magic Kingdom.

Now alcohol will not be available throughout the park at this moment. It is only available in the new Beauty and the Beast themed french restaurant. A Disney spokeswoman said, "You cannot walk into a French restaurant and not get a glass of wine or beer. It made more sense to do it than not to do it."

I'm now over 21 and I'm excited for this, but if I was a kid I would not be happy. If you haven't been to Disney World the Epcot theme park has a unique experience that you can take part in. They have a World Showcase that has eleven countries in it and you can drink around the world. Each country has its own signature beer that adults love to take part in. Now parents you do not need to drink all eleven countries, but after a day at Disney you may feel you need it. All I'm saying is at the end of the day Epcot turns into Saint Patrick's day.

I am excited that Magic Kingdom now has alcohol, but I am also excited it is in one location. You don't need multiple beer stations throughout the Magic Kingdom. I have a feeling this restaurant will be a must stop for parents and the kids will probably enjoy the Beauty and the Beast theme.
