Forth of July not the same after WISHES!

[reedycreek]

i gotta tell you, after watching the fireworks here in NY, and seeing WISHES for the first time since the last 4th, there is just no comparison. i dont think anything could beat the fantastic show at Disney!

ITA! Some of my friends were going to catch fireworks tonight and I decided to sit it out nothing compares to Wishes or any of the other nightime shows at Disney. I know if I would have gone I would have been disappointed...plus I'm sure the mosquitos were out in force tonight

Its funny you mentioned that!.....Last night while watching the Fireworks, DH says "This is weak compared to DisneyWorld!".

 

[Hugpug]

Well I gues we are spoiled. I to did not go as I would have been bored compared to wishes. Instead I watched my DVD of Wishes.

We went, and then we left because our DD, who is 6, told us she was bored, and that from now on she only wanted to see Disney fireworks. Then she laid down on the backseat and went to sleep lol.

We sat last night watching the Boston (?) ones on TV saying...oh, that looks like one from Wishes, that one looked like Mickey!etc.!

 

[ugadog99]

Yep, us too. My dad asked if I was going to take the girls to a nearby town for their fireworks. I said that after the Disney fireworks nothing could compare. The girls have no interest in going to any other fireworks and I don't want to beat the crowd driving. So, it's Disney for us! We watched the Boston ones, too and kept saying "...those are from Wishes..".

I have to disagree. There is nothing like sitting in my boat watching the Macy's fireworks with the Statue of Liberty in the background! Very patriotic!

We wondered why channel 7 (chicago abc) was not televising wdw's fireworks? instead of the "capitol 4th? Wouldn't the whole country rather watch them? Or is it only us disboarders?

FYI: on the Community Board there is a link to a live taping of wdw 4th's firework's at the magic kingdom! It is fabulous!!!!! sound and all. goes full screen too. Sorry do not know how to post the link.

My Mom kept saying the same things last night. "Oh! None of this is as good as Disneys!" I couldn't shut her up. I think I may be contagious, she is seriously hooked!

 

[mkymouse4ever]

Oh, I forgot to say that the music IS definately VERY patriotic! Makes me think about 7/4/6 next year crowds and all after watching that video. We have seen the mvmcp and mnsshp and nitely firework shows which are unbelieveable. But this left that patriotic chill, and I only watched the taped. I have 5 weeks to go and am sitting on pins and needles today.

Love Wishes and Illuminations, but Macy's fireworks cannot be beat. It was amazing last night.

Been looking in the community forum and can't seem to find the Wishes video from July 4th!

 

[mkymouse4ever]

I just bumped it forward it is a thread started by "always quiet" it had fallen back to page 5 already that is why you could not find it. Still don't know how to provide link, but that should help if someone else can.

Our local FW almost got rained out and I had already decided that Plan B would be to come home and watch WDW vacation video FW! We escaped the rain and enjoyed our July 4th FW.

I nearly fell out of my chair, though, when I heard a fellow sitting near me comment "Nice show--very Disney-like!" I'm hoping he was joking...or drunk...or had never been to WDW!
