So what makes you happy at WDW that probably makes no one else happy???

I know I already posted one, but thought of this one too. I LOVED taking the drawing class! I made a scrapbook page of my drawing and look at it often just to relive the memory. I felt like a real artist sitting at the drawing board. Picking up that pencil with no eraser, I knew I couldn't draw a thing. The first thing the instructor said was to lightly draw a circle the size of a CD, which I did. Then I looked over at my sister and she had drawn a teeny tiny circle. When we were finished, I asked her why she had drawn such a small circle. She is a little hard of hearing and thought he said draw a circle the size of a grape. We laughed and laughed over that. What is amazing though, is that our Pooh Bears looked totally different, yet they both looked exactly like Pooh. Of all the amazing things to do at Disney, this simple one will always be one of my favorites!
 
Who else enjoys the preshow music for Illuminations besides me? I remember seeing a couple Spanish kids dancing to some of the music during the 30 minute announcement? The first song always gives me chills!



Seeing people meeting Marie or Pluto at the Magic Kingdom. I remember two moments before meeting her which I founded cute and funny. The first was when I saw a fly land on Marie's face, she didn't notice until 5 seconds when she saw it flying around her. She attempted to swat it away with her paws. The second is my favorite, I was getting close and I seen one women make a comment (I didn't hear what she said) but it had something to do with her pink bow around her neck. I remember she reacted by turning around, and patting her large bow with both hands and turned back around and gave the women a hug. This was also during my day at the park and the last time I meet her. When I meet Pluto on the first day, he balanced my autograph book on his nose. I was going to ask him "How is your old pal Fifi doing?" (Fifi is Pluto's original love interest and a cocker spaniel)

For those that seen Spectromagic, am I the only person who loved and really miss the Spectromen (The guys on the trumpets,spinning balls, and the title unit). This might be the only reason why I missed the parade so much. I don't know why but, after they all say "Electric" a few times. I always loved the short little tune they hum for a few minutes.

Here's the tune in question, starts from 5:00 mark - 5:13
 

The look on my grandson's face when we walk down main street. He looks at me and jumps up and down and says, Nana, are you so "escited". Before he could make the x sound! LOL i would spend every penny I had to see that face and the sparkle in those precious eyes! I loved the same things when my kids were small. Now its my grand baby. A family tradition. And it's all about family. Nothing else matters.
 
  • Arriving at Orlando airport. (I get nervous flying, I'm not terrified of it, but I'm definitely nervous until I feel the wheels touch down.)
  • When I first step into my room.
  • Main Street USA. Walking through the tunnels, the smells, the stores, the castle at the end...it's all just perfect and it doesn't feel like I'm at WDW until that moment.
  • "Welcome Home"
  • Anytime CM or other people create extra magic for anyone
  • Philharmagic
  • The light spray from the fountains outside Innoventions on a hot day
 
Getting on the Magical Express and having Mickey Mouse welcome me to Disney on the little T.V. Monitor. Then first arriving to the DVC Resort and having a Cast Member say Welcome home. Another thing that makes me really happy is my first slide down the Roller Coaster Water Slide at the BoardWalk Resort Pool.
