Does anyone else cry all day?

[peterpanandwendy]

Does anyone else have trouble holding back tears in Disneyland? Right from the front gates, hearing the ambient music and seeing the train pull into the Main Street station, to seeing the happy faces of the kids who believe in magic, to Mickey defeating the Dragon in fantastic for he billionth time I'm a blubbering mess! Who's with me?

 

[buzzgreyhairs]

I am all with you on that, in fact I cant even see a Disney commercial without tearing up.... Disneyland is the perfect form of happeness

 

[kirstie101]

You are not alone. I tear up at least a few times a day when we're there!

 

[Tasscrapper]

I don't cry but I sure smile a lot.

 

[crystal1313]

I tear up when I see the pure joy my kids are experiencing.

 

[debdreamsofdis]

I'm like that usually the day we leave, lol. I do get a little emotional watching the fireworks, but I have to remind myself "Conceal, don't feel." Don't want my mascara to run .

 

[AndreAggie]

And now thanks to the thread, I'll be sure and pack the waterproof mascara!

 

[aijj]

Oh I hear you! I am not a crier but I sorta teared up watching my kids during the parade..they were SO HAPPY. These are shy, timid kids that usually on reserved side, yet they were SHRIEKING when Mickey came down the road for the parade.

Like others what really gets me is when we have tp leave. on our last night there, I took DS up to the main st train station to look at all the train stuff. I was just bowled over seeing him so happy. I let him put a quarter in that music box thing and he danced so happily to the music. I guess i was so happy yet sad it had to end.I was in full fledge tears then...at one point my DS looked at me and said "Mommy, why is your face wet?" Hehe.

I have a tough time. I cried the first time I saw te Main Street parade and cry every time during the fireworks- especially the Christmas ones.

I'm taking my niece in three weeks and I know I'm gonna lose it seeing disney through her eyes!

 

[waltdisneyworlddreamer]

I've cried on every WDW trip and cruise. Anxious to see if DL wins my heart and has the same effect!!

 

[iKristin]

Yeah even thinking of Disneyland makes me get teary eyed. I'm listening to some of my Disneyland ride soundtracks an it just makes me miss it so much!!

 

[Maddysdaddy]

Not at the park itself, but every time I saw the Disney Parks "Jamie" commercial with the father and daughter ("there are 'still' some places she wants to be seen with you") the waterworks started flowing.

[confession - I just you tubed it, and am sitting at my desk trying not to lose it - as the dad of a tween girl, Disney hit the mark with this one]

 

[scrapshappen]

That would be me. The firework show is sure to bring a tear or hundred and well, just seeing my kids enjoying something in a way I didn't get to at their age pushes me over the edge every time. (I did not have a deprived childhood, but with 4 brothers and grandparents that lived out of state, I only went to DL on school trips as a teenager).

And not just Disneyland. When we stepped on the Disney Wonder for the first time last fall, I could not stop crying. I just couldn't believe we were actually there. I didn't cry all week, but I did more than once. Happy tears for sure.

 

[dismomofbn]

Yep, that's me too! Walking onto Main Street for the first day of the trip gets me every time. And the music...oh the music! The Pocahontas, Mulan, Rapunzel song trio in Magical Map turns on the water works as well as the Newsboys, the Fireworks and of course during the Lion King part of World of Color...."Dad?...Dad?" Heartbreaking! I just keep the tissues close lol

 

[gerilyne]

The first year we went I was always caught between a really big smile and wanting to cry because I couldn't believe 1)I was finally back after 30 years and 2)because it was the first real vacation my DH and I had gone on together. Last year, I was still in such disbelief over all the pixie dust we were blessed with that I spend most of the trip in shock (we were fortunate to have been blessed with a reservation to Club 33 for my 40th birthday celebration). But every time I hear any of the theme park music, or think about our trip this year, I get a lump in my throat.

 

[Carolynleanne]

I don't cry all the time, but I DEFINITELY have moments that choke me up

 

[Daisybelle]

I don't cry all the time, but I DEFINITELY have moments that choke me up

This is me too. I'm not a big cryer but I'm always so happy and thankful that we get to go that I find I get teary at certain times, like the first walk down Main Street. The first ride on Splash. Fireworks. When my teenage daughter grabs my hand and wnats to skip. Ok, now I'm getting teary again...

 

[pixiepowers]

Yep, I'm a complete sap! From the music upon entry to walking through the castle, to watching my kiddos run for hugs to characters, and watching all of the other magical moments for other families, I find myself wiping tears throughout the trip. Lucky for my kiddos, my husband is a sap too, so we bring quite the level of embarrassment for them - ha!

 

[Kristina4109]

Not all the time, but I got misty during my daughter's "firsts." Her first ride on it's a small world on her 1st birthday. The first time she watched Remember...Dreams Come True and she said in an almost whisper, "It's all that I dreamed it would be."

 

[Steph4MM]

I am with you! Everything turns me into a cry baby. :sad1 I just say it is liquid happiness and I really wouldn't want it any other way.
