You know, people enthuse about rides, attractions and so on... I just adore WDW for the atmosphere!

There is a GENUINE magic about the place, be it Animal Kingdom or EPCOT or any other Disney park across the world! Heck, even Disneyland Paris is a dream, and that park is considered to be a "beta" park! I can't put my finger on what it is, but there really IS something magical when it comes to Disney.

I agree. Sometimes, having an AP, I will go to a park, say, Epcot maybe, and just sit in different areas and allow myself to be transported by the details. I like the rides, but sometimes I want a more laid back kind of day.

My sister and I have a trip coming up in March, and we had a talk about it. Before in all of our trips we were gogogo all day rope droppers, but now we're both over 50 and not exactly spry spring chickens either of us. We decided to give into the inevitable and become Disney Seniors, taking it slow and steady. I told my sister I wasn't going to run for a boat, monorail, or bus-or anything. I'm content to wait for stuff now. We're going to take time to notice all the little details, preferable while resting on a bench. I've always found WDW to be a magical experience. Now I want to really want to relax and not be a theme park commando. We've been enough times to enjoy the new things to see without killing ourselves with exhaustion. We usually go 5 days 6 nights, but this time we went for the extra day to really make sure we see everything and still get to enjoy old favorites.

I like the rides, attractions, shows, etc but it is the atmosphere that bring me back.
