So Sweet! It was wonderful to visit a place I had only known from the Disney adaptations. However, why was I expecting Mary Poppins to be a nice, kind, and sweet character... that was the only thing that was a little jarring.. she needed a spoonful of sugar! It's been a long time since I've seen the movie, but I don't remember her being as stuck up as Travers wrote her.. time for another rewatch. However, I want to think that Disney sweetened the character up a lot!
