The magic. The fact that I feel like I can be completely myself and sort of escape into a fantasy.
You mention getting away from all the negativity and craziness going on in the real world. Isn't it funny how during a WDW trip, you lose track of what day of the week it is, who won any sporting events or what on Earth is happening in the news? Just awesome!I have an annual pass, and while I enjoy the parks because of the attractions and shows I mainly go to get away from the real world. When I step foot in Disney I feel like I am transported to a different world and can get away from all the negativity and craziness going on in the real world. Sure there are moments where things can be frustrating during my visit, but I always try to have a smile on my face. Disney will always be somewhere I can go to get something off my mind and truly feel like a kid again.

Also hate to be a downer. We have never been to world yet. Going next month for the first time ever. Husband said today that we won't be back due to the stress of preplanning the trip that ADRs, FP+, and itinerary has put on me. Then factor in airlines changing layover times and having to change flights. Plus we were denied the fall discount. Wasn't counting on it to begin with, yet would of been nice with airlines changing layover times and change fees. Then to find out people hoard ADRs and FP+, plus some shenanigans that some play just sucked the magic out. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy we're going to do it since we've never been to world. Yet I can say with 100% certainty we won't be back to world due to all the preplanning loops and hoops. Preplanning has burnt me out. So far Disneyland wins for the ease of preplanning and for it being spontaneous.
The Disney bubble.
For 10 days every Fall or Spring we enter an alternative universe, one that simultaneously is familiar yet new. Yes, we know Main St in MK is an idealized version of Americana to be found nowhere in reality and that I'm not really in an English pub in the pic below but they're real enough for us.
