My husband was NOT a Disney person. When my eldest son (who is 9) was 2.5 we were going to the LA area and I said 'let's do DL!) That first trip, I bought 3 day park hoppers and he commented he thought that that might be too much. My son LOVED it!
In the beginning I made a point of highlighting the stuff I knew DH would like. (he loves trains, so I managed a tender ride, riding first in the monorail, etc.). We did pool time in the afternoon and did bedtimes, and had successful trips. Our trips have grown longer (we've done a week at DL!) and we have done WDW 3 times as a family.
We just went in April. At that point, I thought 2 years for next trip, and he said 5. The day after we got back, he had to fly off to LA for work. While he was there, he stopped by DL and stopped by DVC. We now are looking on buying into DVC!
Oh, and he has 2 Mickey shirts! This was NOT a Disney guy. He was skeptical. But, I converted him!!
