The TARDIS hummed as it hurtled through the Vortex, sending its four occupants through space and time. The Doctor was busy flipping switches, pulling levers, pushing buttons, and trying to keep River away from the controls. Amy and Rory looked on in amused silence.

"So where are we going this time?" Amy prodded.

"Oh, you'll see!" the Doctor replied with a childish grin as he swatted River's hand away from the parking brake lever for the umpteenth time.

River huffed and pulled her hand away and remarked, "It better be somewhere good. No place too boring or messy... or with food that turns you into a spaztic rainbow..." as she flopped into the console chair.

"Oi! I told you that ending up on the Planet of the Kyk Juyk was an accident! I told the Old Girl to take us to the rainforests of Apopagrashania! They have trees that grow to be taller than any skyscraper on Earth, and flowers so huge you can stand on them!"

"Not to mention the fact that some of those flowers big enough to stand on eat meat (including people!), and it has a hostile native population..." River said with a roll of her eyes.

"Well, you just don't stand on those plants or go looking for the Apopagrashanians!" the Doctor replied as the TARDIS came to a halt. Without the familiar "VVWWWWWWOOOOOOOORP. VWOOOOOOOOOORRP!" The Doctor turned an glared at River. "But I kept you away from the parking brake lever!" he complained.

River smirked. "There's a few other ways to turn it on and off."

"No there isn't! I know my TARDIS, and I know that there isn't any other way!"

Amy, fearing that the argument could end up lasting all day and keeping them from exploring wherever they had landed, broke in. "Um, you two are welcome to stay here and argue that, but Rory and I are going to see where we've landed..." She began to walk towards the doors, grabbing Rory's hand along the way.

As she opened the door a wave of cheerful music reached their ears, along with the smell of food, and the sounds of many, MANY people.

Amy poked her head out and then turned back to the Doctor, who had forgotten his argument with River and was bouncing on the balls of his feet and grinning like a four year old.

"TA-DA!" He yelled with a flourish of his hands. He then proceeded to bound down the stars as quickly as he could before running outside the TARDIS ahead of everyone. The other three followed him and observed their surroundings.

They were in a courtyard or garden of sorts that was extremely well kept. In front of them was a huge white, Victorian style building with a red roof. Over their heads, a monorail passed by through a station, and the sounds of many people's voices could be heard over all the other noise.

Amy looked around. "You brought us to-"

"DISNEY WORLD!" the Doctor interrupted. "The 'happiest place on Earth'! Well, actually, one of the happiest places on Earth, because they say that about all of the Disney parks, even though at this point there's six of them world-wide. So technically, I guess it's one of the six happiest places on Earth because of that, but it doesn't really matter because it is so much fun that you forget the technicality of that..."

He was silenced by River shoving her hand over his mouth. "We get it, Sweetie. They call it the happiest place on Earth. But WHY did you bring us here?"

The Doctor stared at her in disbelief. How could she even ask that?! Isn't it obvious? "To have fun! And I mean fun like most people have, not the kind of fun of running away from hostile aliens or saving a planet. The "have fun for the sake of fun" kind of fun! I don't get to have that very often, and I've actually never been here, so I figured that now was as good a time as any to try it! I even booked us some rooms here at this hotel because apparently that's what people usually do, although I'd still be happy with just staying in the TARDIS, but trying something new is always good, so a hotel it will be!" With that he bounded off towards the building.

The other three just stared after him for a moment. Rory asked, "Do you think it's possible that we'll manage to get through this trip without alien attacks or having to save the world or... any of the stuff we usually have to do with him?"

"No not really, but we can try. Come on," Amy replied as she began to walk towards the Doctor, who had stopped to chat with an elderly man wearing white Edwardian sport clothes. They appeared to be talking about bowties, seeing as the other man was wearing one. The Doctor turned to see the other three coming and waved.

"I was wondering if you were ever going to follow! This is Richard! Look at his brilliant bowtie! I need one like that!"

"Hello," Amy, Rory, and River said. Richard tipped his hat and said, "Hello to all of you too! Welcome to the Grand Floridian! Hope you folks enjoy your stay! Where do you think you'll go first? Is it your first time here in Disney World?"

"Yes!" answered an excited Doctor, "And I was thinking that we'd start in the Magic Kingdom tomorrow, seeing as it's the main park. Tonight we'll explore the hotel! We're staying here."

"Well have fun! I guess I'll be seeing you around if you're staying here. Have a magical day!" Richard said with a wave and another tip of his hat.

"COOL! They tell you to have a 'magical day!' That is absolutely BRILLIANT, and I am going to say that from now on!" the Doctor said as he practically skipped into the lobby of the Grand Floridian.

River shook her head as she, Amy, and Rory followed the Doctor once more. "I feel like this might be a very long trip..."
