People Watching - What is your Favorite Spot?

[Mousetopia]

I don't have small kids and it is fun to sit and enjoy the crowds going by when I need a break. Years ago my favorite was the terrace outside Fountainview Cafe. They had a few tables there and you could enjoy the people watching as well as the Fountain show and music sometimes feeling a bit of spray coming your way. ...ahhhh. Perfect in the early morning sunlight!

Sidebar..does anyone know if there are still tables there?

Our boys took off to play Sorcerer's of the Magic Kingdom so my DH and I grabbed some Dole Whips and found some rocking chairs on a porch in Frontierland...............just relaxing to watch the crowds pass by.

For some reason, the kids just love getting a table by the window in Pinocchio Village Haus to watch the folks in the IASM boats.

Virtually anywhere in the parks I plunk myself down is a good place to people watch.

The Frozen Sing-A-Long, the little kids are way too cute, love to sit near the ones who are way into it.

My exact thoughts. Although it is not just the kids. And if you are just adults, then the same holds true for San Angel Inn restaurant if you get a water view table.

It's the Starbucks now, and so it is busier, but there are a few tables there.

I like the top of the train depot at MK, and Tony's porch rocking chairs. At EPCOT there are benches down past MouseGears that are placed in a good spot.

MK: Liberty Square.....Near Riverboat...one of the most pleasant places in the park to sit...just stay out of MY SEAT!
DHS: Outside Villains and Vogue. Lots of Neon and atmosphere
Epcot: Japan
AK: Behind TOL, with Everest in sight.....

Epcot - the benches in Morrocco
MK - little tables outside what is not the Pandora store in the alley
AK - around the place where the singers are just before Safari
HS - the concrete benches along Sunset Blvd. toward TOT.

Two different places....I used to love the writers stop before they closed it, and I also love the tables outside of caseys

Also the stone benches across from the soft serve ice cream window in adventure land...with soft serve ice cream of course!

We used to love to sit in the Writer's Shop in HS, but it is gone now.

We also to love to sit at a table in Pinocchio's Village Haus and wave to people on Its a Small World.

Once I got a rocking chair on a small porch right where the exit for the Hall of Presidents is. That was a very nice quiet spot.

We also like to get a table on the 2nd floor of Columbia Harbour House.

In Animal Kingdom, it is fun to grab a snack or meal at Flame Tree BBQ and sit with a beautiful view of EE.

In Epcot, I like to get a glass of wine in Germany and sit there and watch the crowds.

It's not in the parks, but my favorite people watching spot is the balcony outside of the Belle Vue Lounge at the Boardwalk.

I also like the fountain at Epcot and anyplace on Main St especially on a Halloween party night. Recently we started watching people pose for pictures in front of the topiary before heading back to World Showcase. Some people are so funny

I also kill time sitting on the outside tables in America pavilion

I remember a few years ago getting to MK just about 10:30 am. The tables outside of the Plaza Ice Cream place were totally deserted. There I sat, all by myself, with a small ice cream sundae - just watching the people - it was so extremely peaceful and relaxing.

We love to watch people interact with characters, my favorite place is near TSMM the army men are awesome. And last time we were in Epcot FEA just opened and the Vikings that were walking around were really a lot of fun to watch also.
