Back to Disney... like my grandfather before me.
I've got a bit of a story to share.
Years ago, back when Disney World was new, my grandad operated one of the original diesel-powered ferry boats. He was a retired aerospace engineer who loved all types of boats and this was his side gig for a while. Disney is calling me, so we're going back in November. I'm telling the COVID off! My youngest daughter and I have planned a photo challenge. We're going to re-enact grandad's old photos... And... Can we ride every boat on Disney property? Stay tuned.

What a great plan. Do the ride boats count too? That's an awful lot of boats if they do! Small World, Splash Mountain, Kali River Rapids, Three Cabelleros, Living the Land, Epcot Lake, River Taxi's at resorts, Paddle Boats, Raft to Tom Sawyers Island, Pirates OTC, Jungle Cruise. Then of course there are loads of transportation options. Do the river car's at Disney Springs count?

Right, hadn't thought of that. Which boats DO count? All the watercraft transportation, for starters, but I like your list. Can't leave out the ride boats of course! I think I'll set the kids to make a plan.

What a great plan. One of my favourite days on our Florida trips involved boat rides. We had dinner at Wilderness Lodge Cafe, caught the boat to MK, ended up riding in a small world boat with just us no other people! I felt like I won the lottery that night!
I really hope you manage your pilgrimage it sounds like such a lovely idea.
