From Tokyo To Paris
According to Guinness World Records, the record attempt began in March 2024 at Tokyo DisneySea, when Bootsie was 11 months old. The family then traveled across four countries and three continents, including stops at the Disney parks in California and Florida, before ending in Paris.
The 12 parks are Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort; Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World; Disneyland Park and Disney Adventure World at Disneyland Paris; Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea; Hong Kong Disneyland; and Shanghai Disneyland.
Her mother, Jess Darrington, told EastIdahoNews.com that the family’s travel for her work kept putting them near Disney parks. She said she contacted Guinness World Records, which told her it had never had the record, and that the family then learned Paris was the last park they were missing.
A Family Of Travelers
Bootsie traveled with her five-year-old brother, Briggs, and parents Jess and Steve Darrington, who share family travel content as @WhereIsBriggs. Guinness World Records said the family wanted to show that travel with young children is possible and rewarding.
“Visiting all 12 Disney theme parks has been such a special journey for our family, and seeing Bootsie experience each park, enjoy the rides and make memories with her favourite person – her big brother Briggs – has made it even more meaningful,” Jess said in the Guinness World Records announcement.
