Ok..be honest...who cries?

[dwcrazee]

Like a baby! We drive and I even get chocked up when we cross the FL state line. I always keep kleenex in my backpack.

 

[JobeeC]

hoping to keep it together this trip! i lost it during the festival of the lion king! seeing my sons reaction did it! (hubby still gets mileage out of that!)

I got home on 3/4 and I haven't posted since then. Just lurking til the depression subsides a bit. My best friend and I saw One Man's Dream for the first time and we both were crying when we walked outside after the film. Glad to know we're not the only ones. I started planning next February's trip though so I am starting to come out of my funk now and hopefully will be doing some more posting and not just lurking.

I cried at Cinderellabration this winter....how sappy is that! It was mostly from watching my youngest daughters face as she watched and we were right up front too so it just got to me!

I've also gotten choked up at the Lion King show, I just think its such an awesome show....Wishes gets me too....the Epcot fireworks got me last year when we were there with extended family.....did the Family Magic Tour and it was all I could do to hold it together as we walked through the park at the end with Peter Pan and Wendy....basically you see I'm a very sappy person and as others have said, I too can even get teary at the commercials!

That's what the magic is all about and I'm so glad its there!

I haven't been to WDW since I was 17 (I'm now 32) and am finally going back with my mom and sister for a Girls Only Family Reunion in late August (sis is a teacher and can only go then), and I KNOW I am going to cry. Not sure what will be the tear-jerker, but something will start the waterworks I'm sure.

 

[NewCrew42]

I wish I may
I wish I might
Have this wish I wish tonight....

I can't even type the words without getting teary...

 

[Dis-Wiz]

I get kind of choked up when I watch the video we took the last time we went. We brought the camera out on the balconies at the Grand Floridian and every time I watch it, I feel like I am there on the balcony, but then I turn away from the camera screen to notice I am not actually there. That's when it gets me, .

 

[wifemomkate]

I cry! I went to WDW on a family vacation when I was little and ever since then it was my dream to go there with my own Prince Charming one day. DH and I went for the first time back in '97 before we had kids, and now we'll be taking our first trip with all 3 babies this August! He's already warned them that I'll cry. I've cried several times just planning this trip! Just the anticipation of seeing my kids' faces when they (insert ANY activity here) for the first time.....

 

[sheri236]

i don't understand people that don't cry!!! my dh and dd make fun of me every time we arrive at mk because they know the tears are coming! just reading this thread has me choked up!!!

 

[Lizzy Lemon]

My eyes fill up whenever I think we're doing something the children will love from going to a soccer match, theatre trips and best of all DLRP. We saw the Lion King in DLRP and enjoyed it so much we went down to London to see it in the West End that was fantastic. We've got the Wishes and other fireworks displays to look forward to when we come to the US next year. I guess we're very emotional people and there's nothing wrong with that.

 

[stebiz]

My wife is terrible for this and tries to turn away from me. There again we can't all be hard can we??

 

[Epcot Girl]

I do, all the time. I don't know what it is--Maybe you just feel so happy, seeing as how you are in the Happiest place on Earth. Its just...Overwhelming happiness.

 

[snickerharley]

When I see the new commercial of the two boys lying on the grass at night looking at the star and then they remember their Disney trip, that one gets me choked up. Also when I enter the park and see the "partners" statue the gets me every time.

 

[Squidrific]

I cry at every parade and every fireworks show. I sob during Illuminations - it is embarrassing! I have tried not to, but I can't help it. I tear up when I listen to wishes music on Live 365 at work. I cried when my dnephew (2) saw Mickey for the first time and ran and gave him a hug (that one actually made my sister cry too)

My family makes fun of me but I don't care. I just think of them as happy cleansing tears that wash away all my troubles when I am at Disney!

 

[eblack0409]

I cried at Wishes......and also when we left the Magic Kingdom on our last day....I just didn't want to come home....

 

[NikkiLovesWDW!]

I'm so glad there are others out there...Sometimes I feel like such a loser but I love it so much.

I cry at least once a week over something Disney, be it a song or a commerical, reading the messageboards....
It's gotten worse since the last time I was there in '03 so who knows how much I will cry when I'm actually there!

 

[lclark0621]

I cry during Wishes everytime. I hold my DS close, and my DH usually has his arm around me. Sometimes I have noticea a tear or two in DH's eye also. But hugging my family close, watching Wishes, gets me everytime!

I also get teary during Spectromagic. But that is because DH & I used the music to the parade for our last dance at our Disney Wedding some 9 years ago!

 

[busymom72]

I never got to go to WDW as a child and neither did my DH, as we both came from families with very limited incomes. I always swore that someday I would find a way to take my own children. So in 46 days, along with DS12, DD10, and DD6, we will fulfill our lifelong dream...How can I be expected to NOT get emotional? I tear up just thinking about it.

I've just checked into this thread and have my own memories of the first time we saw Fantasmic back in 1997 in DL California. We had spent a week in LA with DD and DS, then 9 & 7. It was our very first time at a Disney park and because of our 8 hour time difference and resultant jet lag we had tended to leave the park early as we and particularly the children became so tired. However on our last night we decided we should stay on for Fantasmic. We didn't know anything about it except that we had, by that time, become totally consumed by the "Disney Experience" ( I guess you know what I mean ). The children were grouchy through tiredness and we wondered several times whether we should stay. Anyway, the children napped for a while as we waited for the show to start.

The rest is history as we all watched this spectacular show for the first time (there have been other threads suggesting that the DL Fantasmic is even better than WDW). All I will say is that at the end of the show as we walked away I looked at DW as she looked at me and we both had tears streaming down our faces. The children of course wondered what was the matter and we could only give them a big hug and say that everything was just fine.

Fantasmic remains the favourite and unmissable show in our programme on each visit to WDW for all four of us - including DD now 19 and DS 16 who now fully appreciate the emotions of that night 9 years ago.
