What is it about the World???

Call me crazy but i'm getting choked up just reading this tread. I can't wait till December. It's nice to know we are not alone in our thinking.

You know even though my family makes fun of me, the whole time at the parks they ask me "Mom what would your friends do,. What do your friends say about this. " I think I may have turned them into Disney geeks too. OMG - It could be alot worse. LOL

I'm almost up to my 90 day window. Let the games begin!

Another thing that really gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling re: Disney and "The" Mouse. Mickey Mouse is well known all over the world as being an American institution and is, truly, an Ambassador of Goodwill. When 9/11 happened the whole world (aside from a few fanatics) stood by us and cried with us and we all felt that comradery (sp?), that closeness, and we showed, these idiotic terrorists that we all stand together, and that we are fiercely loyal and protective of our country, family, and friends.

I can just imagine the DIS outcry when we learned that WDW was on the terrorist target hitlist. Now, more than ever before, I think I am even MORE proud of our American institution and of Mickey!:Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc
 
Thats the best part about Disney. Theres a magic there that cant really be explained. The people that get it will always get it and some people just dont and never will. My family goes twice a year now and we always hear the same snickering from other friends and family who have been there and just dont get it. I always tell them to stop trying, if they've been there and still dont get it, they never will. For me, its an escape to a different world where most people are happy to be there and most of the workers are happy to work there. It really is the happiest place on earth. I'm a corporate slave working with miserable people, I live in a big city where life is fast paced and people are just frantic and cold. Disney is just like being in a fantasy world for a short time. I havent found a place yet that comes close to matching it for a family destination. It never fails that we end up comparing wherever else we go to disney and they just never compare. The people are never as friendly, the parks are never as clean. The other places just dont have that magic. I think Disneyworld has truely lived up to Walts vision as being the most magical place on earth. Dont get me wrong. Im actually a very cynical person and I do realize that its just a business, but at least they do give you something for your dollar. It beats the other major parks that charge just as much, yet they have rides with the paint chipping off, the workers are miserable. Its just not the same. But the bottom line is that my family gets the magic and thats why we love it. And each trip we will tell every person who mocks us about "wasting" our money that they just dont get it and that they should just stick to baking themselves on the beach with a beer in their hand while their kids wish they were with us at Disney. They used to sell a Harley Davidson T-shirt that said.."if you have to ask, you'll never understand". That applies to Disney as well.

10. It has monorails to bring you to the parks.
9. It's so clean.
8. Characters spend time with children of all ages.
7. It's so big.
6. Attractions seldom break down.

4. So many small touches like the model train, double decker buses, Ice station cool and tons more.
3. It's so varied.
2. Large attraction waiting areas are in air conditioning.
1. Buzz Lightyear Ranger Spin.

Like no other place on earth.
