I hope that a post-covid world means to be walking down Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland,
with the smell of vanilla wafting through the air with a churro in my hand.

I hope that a post-covid world means I can go back to my favorite land, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
and have a vibrantly colored, fruity drink at the Cantina.

I hope that a post-covid world means that I can stay at my favorite hotel, The Grand Californian,
and can collect all the pressed pennies and pins I can imagine.

But most of all, I hope that a post-covid world means Disneyland opens soon so thousands of
cast members can get back to work.
