I wish I was.....

[bdg100]

playing in the sand, digging for dinasaur bones with my four year old son at Animal Kingdom.

riding in the very front car of Rock n Roller coaster with my 7 year old son at MGM, then, magically, transporting ourselves to Buzz Lightyear and finish the ride with both of us earning the designation of "Space Ace".

grabbing a "telephone seat" at the Comedy Club with my 12 year old daughter, buying an extra large popcorn and two extra large sodas that we will never finish.

sitting on the bench located at the back of the park near Peter Pan and Small World after the fireworks with no one else around, temperature about 70 degrees, clear, starry night, snuggling with the best person I know, my wife.

walking down Main Street immediately after the park opens in the morning as a family (4 year old on my shoulders), excited people everywhere, on the first day we arrive at the Park headed towards the Castle and new memories.

Go ahead, finish the sentence with your own thoughts.

This is a great thread. I need to relive the magic!

I wish I was....

sitting on the balcony at the Wilderness Lodge, watching Wishes from the MK.

Riding Splash Mountain right before they close and the girl working the ride tells us we can go on again without even getting out of the "flume".

on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride - really missed this ride a few weeks ago since it's closed for refurb.

just pulling up to the hotel for the very first day of a week long trip to Disney.

sitting in LeCellier eating Cheddar Cheese Soup with breadsticks.

looking at all the beautiful flowers in and around all of Disney - it's so dull and grey here in PA!

sitting in a Wilderness Lodge hotel room at night, discussing how much fun we had during the day.

Gosh, I could go on and on and on. I need to start planning our next trip. :lol

 

[lisajl]

Great thread!!

I wish I was.....

Planning a trip for this year...

Waiting in line with my boys at Space Mtn and listening to my oldest say, "I hope the wait is worth it" Then hearing him say..."I'm never going on that again!"

As my 8 year old says, "Come on, Mom, let's go again!"

I wish I was seeing the Castle for the first time

I wish I was watching Wishes and not crying for once...

I wish I was laying in a bed at WDW exhausted from our day, but making sure our alarm was set early for the next big day!

 

[luvdmouse]

I wish I was:

Seeing my childrens' faces when they read the last page of the custom book I'm working on - it says, "So Mommy and Daddy picked them up at school and said: We're going to Disney World".

I am having SUCH a hard time not telling them!!

 

[bdg100]

Go for it. It makes me feel as good reading it as it makes you feel thinking about it and typing it out.

 

[Prinny27]

Ok then!

I wish I was...

Watching DBF's face as he tries the Beverly AGAIN because he always forgets it's the 'gross' one!

At the Animation tour in MGM learning how to draw Goofy and finding out that I, could, in fact actually do it, just like the CM said.

Watching someone's face on their first ever trip to the MK as I hand them the old phone in the general store on Main Street and tell them it's for them.

I was riding Soarin for the first of many times on my trip
Sitting in a rocking chair in Frontierland
Eating a cheesesteak lakeside at GF

Driving under the WDW sign as we arrive for our 14 day trip!!! I can't wait!
Watching Illuminations (hopefully no mean drunks behind us this time, lying to their little boy about how "Illuminations isn't fireworks, so don't be scared there aren't any loud noises", then getting mad when the poor thing becomes hysterical after the first blast.)
Trying Mission Space chicken line for the first time...I finally get to ride MS!
