For me, the plane ride getting to Florida to go to WDW is something that really gets me exited. The hardest thing for me is leaveing.

1) Plane Ride to WDW

1) Illuminations
2) Spectromagic

5) Okay...remember that ad a few years ago, with the little girl, goes all over the MK, and gets gloomier and sadder, and it's the end of the day, she has her head down - looking super sad..and these black shoes come into view..and the camera pans up..it's Mickey...pan back to little girl's face - look of awe..and she utters the words "I've been waiting my whole life to meet You." See I'm tearing up now...I'm a sap. :sad:
:ccat:

1. Wishes
2. Castle on Main Street at night
3. Osbourne Lights walking with your family at Christmas
4. Candlelight Processional
5. Spectromagic - as long as there is noone shoving me. :)
 
Hearing the music start for the Main Street Electrical Parade. I grew up with that parade and Im so afraid that I will never see it again. :guilty:
 
In order they occur?

1. Seeing the top of the Castle for the first time.
2. Walking down Main Street.
3. Watching Wishes.
4. The end of Illuminations.
5. Leaving WDW and seeing the sign "See Ya Real Soon!"
 
1. Wishes
2. American Adventure (even the song on cd in my car)
3. Voices of Liberty
4. Festival of the Lion King
5. Thinking about taking the little bun in my oven for his or her first (of many) trip :love: I'm due in April and am already wishing and planning!!
 
PS - Anytime hearing "When You Wish Upon a Star" in the parks. Especially in the background right before Wishes. And at the TTC.
 
There are so many! I'm embarrassed to share them...

1. That moment on Spaceship Earth where your seat swings around and you see - the earth in space with the stars around it. It always brings tears to my eyes.

2. When Abraham Lincoln gets up to talk in the Hall of Presidents. I'm not even American but he is one of my heroes.

3. In Soarin' at the end when we swoop over Disneyland with the parade and all the Chirstmas lights.

4. Seeing the baby elephants playing together at Kilimanjaro Safaris.

5. Walking into the lobby of AKL or inhaling the wonderful smells at Boma.

6. Calling to book a trip or make ADR's and hearing that cheerful "Have a Magical Day!"

7. Oh, wait, we were supposed to stop at five. I'm starting to think I spend a good percentage of my trip with tears in my eyes.

1. When Ariel comes on in Philharmagic.
2. When the clouds clear at the beginning of Soarin'.
3. Peter Pan's flight as you head over London.
 
1. Watching the little ones. You can see they really believe in the magic.

2. Wishes.

3. Disney commercials--except the ones with the dogs. I love dogs, but I didn't appreciate being compared to one. And, I'm sure the dogs weren't happy about portraying people.

4. Walking through the castle.

5. Standing just outside the MK, looking around the bay at the hotels, watching the ferry either pull up or depart, then the monorail goes by just overhead. I realize I'm really HERE, and I tear up. So, if you see a pooh-sized woman standing outside the park looking around wiping away a tear--don't worry. It's just me feeling a bit overwhelmed that I made it back the experience the magic one more time.
 
I"m glad I'm not the only one that gets depressed coming home. The trip home and going back to work the next monday are some of the more depressing moments of my life.
