What is it that makes a grown man cry??

What can I say that has not already been said. My first real trip to WDW was 3 years ago with My then 14.5 year old son. We have been on our own for the last 7 years. I can not tell you how emotional it was just to drive under the sign when we first arrived. What did me in though was our first night. We hadnt even been in a park yet. We were at Ohana for dinner and we timed it just right to have desert as Wishes started. When the music started to play and that litle girl sings Star Light Star Bright the tears came unbiddeen to my eyes. To this day I cant listen to this music without the tears streaming down my face. BTW they are truly happy tears!!! And I bought the CD and listen to it often! Sometimes I wonder if I will have to turn in my MAN Card for revealing this LOL

We returned last year and are returning this year. I know I will be standing on main street watching Wishes and I will be happily crying again!

Once again, I'm relieved to see that I am not alone. However, I get excited when I walk into Orlando's airport terminal, and when I see the EPCOT ball. I don't know why, but EPCOT gets to me like the castle gets to others. In fact, when I was leaving EPCOT for the last time on my trip, I needed to stop and sit on one of the benches and look back at the "ball". I thanked God for another trip, and asked Him to let me return again soon. :cloud9:
So nice to know I'm not the only "sappy" one on the boards.
