I love to look at how efficient WDW is. CM and their logistics. I can watch for hours how the burger lines, hot dog stands lines move. When it's great, it's almost like ballet. Everyone know their places and their moves. I always wonder how come WDW bathroom never had a wait, always clean, never run out of toilet paper. How many tons of tomato, bread, ice would they need to order. Probably a dream job for logistician.

I love reading these! Mine are:

1. Going through the park slowly and seeing all of the incredible details. Like this time we were at AK before it got too crowded and I noticed beautiful elephant engravings in stone.
2. I love the Disney ducks. Love to watch them swimming in the fountain in Germany or just hanging out in the MK.
3. Watching the cast members make desserts at Big Top Treats. It smells soooo good in there and I love to see how they create the caramel apples and other assorted treats!

On our last trip, we had SO much fun watching the ducks. Talk about living "your best life" !
