I was in the third day of my dream Disney vacation when disaster struck. My 5-year-old princess had lost her Eeyore doll, the one that helps her sleep.

After a huge search of all the bags/drawers in the room, I reluctantly took her down to the lobby in her PJ's at 11:35 p.m. in the hopes that the store would be open by some miracle. When I got to the store I saw the sign that said that the store had closed at 11 p.m. After I explained that the store was closed more crying ensued. A manager ended up coming over and, having pity on the situation, opened the store for us and let her get another Eeyore.

After I had paid for Eeyore I offered the manager a tip, as he surely had gone over and above his normal call of duty for my princess and I. He would not accept a dime -- instead he suggested making a donation to the Animal Foundation instead. What a selfless individual. That is true Disney magic! - from Steve, 34, Hamilton, Ontario (Disney Insider Fan Spotlight)
