I don’t know if Walley World really exists in California or if it’s just a script writer’s dream version of Disney World, but the 1983 movie and the Lindsey Buckingham theme song “Holiday Road” together bring back the greatest memories I have ever had of family, friends and life.
=========================
“I found out long ago … oh, oh, oh, oh, oh …
it is a long way down the Holiday Road … oh, oh, oh, oh, oh …”
=========================
If that lyric means nothing to you, then don’t even waste your time reading the rest of this review or seeing the new movie remake, Vacation, starring Ed Helms (who I first saw in Office) as Rusty, and Christina Applegate (the charming sexed up daughter, Kelly Bundy, in the TV sitcom Married with Children) plays Rusty’s wife, Debbie.

Still, this movie meant so much to me when I was growing up and just hearing the Lindsey Buckingham song (Holiday Road) makes me stop whatever I am doing to remember, reminisce and smile.
