How do you feel about Disney. - Page 2

This site, for one, is a wonderful escape, usually, from the horrids of life. (Sure, we look at Disney from a practical, unmagical few now and then, but everyone needs a little dose of reality. ;) )

I could probably sum up 'disney' with one story. I hadn't gone to a disney park in ten years, and it was my second day as a college program kid. My roomates and I went to MGM, which had changed alot for me, and we saw Fantasmic, which I had never seen before. The very end...where there's this mysterious dancing light, and all the kids are calming down from the villians dissapearing...there was literally this collective, enraptured GASP from everyone when they saw it was Tinkerbell. My expectations were low when I walked in, but they we blown away when I walked out. That memory still makes me teary.

The first thing I though of when I became pregant six years ago was that I could not wait to bring my DS to disney for the first time.

I guess because I have been going there for so long I wanted DS to have the same great memories that I have. And on his first birthday, December of 2002, his love for disney began :)

For me, it is an inner peace that I feel when I am there.You can leave all your worries at the gate. The family is together,everyone is happy and safe. My children are 11 and 9. Every trip, I have new memories that will be with all of us for life.I look forward to going one day with their families! When I run into those people who ask, "You're going again?",I explain to them that we as a family are fortunate to have found a place that we can all enjoy. I tell them that I really hope they can find something similar in their lives. That usually shuts them up! In short, Disney is an oasis in the middle of the chaotic world we are forced to live in everyday!

Hmm..... I love everything Disney. I guess it started with my parents... they liked Disney and took us on many vacations to Walt Disney World. I watched Disney Channel as a little kid.... loved Disney movies.

When I was 9 years old, we moved to Florida, and my dad bought us APs to WDW... it kind of made the transition easier for me, I think. It was an abrupt move, and changed a lot, but going to WDW put a smile on my face. I felt free... it's a child's fantasyland. I'd drag my family to WDW every weekend. I loved not only the parks, but the history. Learning about Walt Disney's accomplishments.... as well as everything he went through to make his dreams come true... inspired me. Nothing Walt did was easy, and he didn't always (well, rarely ever) have the support of the public, but he perserveered until his fantasy became a reality. I admire Walt and the Walt Disney Company.... and am an avid supporter of all things Disney. I suppose that makes me a Disney fan.

WDW is a place where I can travel back in time. I can be the child I was. Watching The Mickey Mouse Show with my baby brother as we sat in an overstuffed chair wearing our Mickey Mouse ears. Growing up with everything Disney. Walt Disney, Disneyland & his plans for WDW. Pollyanna, Summer Magic, Davy Crockett, Cinderella, Snow White.... It is a time I can escape harsh reality & retreat into a Fantasyland.

When I go to Walt Disney World I forgot about everything, my job,my problems,everything that is going on around me. That's why I love going to WDW!

I guess I'm like everyone else. It's hard to put in words how I feel. It is another world you are in - a magical world where all is great. especially last year when we were on the dining plan. Just think, you ordered your meal, and left when you were done.

It leaves you in such an awesome feeling.

As a matter of fact........ we are going to DW in September and I've just started getting excited about my "other vacation" with my kids. I just realized last week that we leave in 11 days now for Ocean Isle Beach, NC - ocean front cottage for 7 nights! I love the beach and DW is taking first priority!

I just asked my DH this question.

he's 53 yo

He said Young and Happy. Like a kid again.

Does that sum it up?
