[ All of this is really never anything Cisco expected to explain in his life, but he's happy to help if he can. ]
okay so here's the scoop:
walt disney was the name of a guy. a writer. he ran a company that made animated movies - not like the neverending story, with actors in costumes and sets, but sequences of drawings that look like they're moving. so he made a whole lotta films, and the most famous ones are almost all about princesses - like cinderella. and they got really popular, so at a certain point he decided to make an amusement park themed around the fictional stuff in his own movies.
so like, disneyland isn't a place like westeros or central city, where i'm from. it's a park. the princesses aren't real and they don't live there - though they pay people to dress up like the princesses so the little kids will think they are real and get excited and get pictures with them. families bring their kids to have fun. there are little games to play, sweets to buy, rides (sort of... mechanical devices that spin you around for fun), fake castles, gardens, that kind of thing. that's 'disneyland'.
i don't have any of them but i've gotten pretty good at finding dvds here. if you want i can look around for them and let you know?
