Not A Ride or Show

[Figgy1]

Let me get your brain juices flowing this fridgid am. Where in Disney just screams magic to you but here's the tricky part not a ride or show (includes parades) For me it's when we arrive and the Walt Disney World sign is passing overhead I just know magic has arrived. and I'm in it until we go home!

That's so funny figment, for me it's as soon as we drive under the huge WDW sign and see the first busses and monorail, then I'm like yup I'm home.

Good question,but hard to answer just one.Off the top of my head I reckon when I stand at the bottom of Main Street and look up at the castle and just breathe in all the atmosphere and hubbub.

Staying at the Contemporary, opening the door to our room and seeing the Grand canyon Concourse and the monorail going by. Walking up Main Street and seeing the castle ahead. Riding the monorail to Epcot and doing the "loop" around spaceship earth where you can see the park below. These are just a few.

Ok.When I get my express checkout bill and it says I owe $2000.00.

When I see This Store on Side A at Orlando International Airport...It's the first thing a traveler sees after getting off the tram and head to Disney's Magical Express.

When I check in at my resort and it's too late for a park so I go to Downtown Disney. I am always so tired that I almost fall asleep on the way but as soon as I enter the shops I just completely change!

Overpriced merchandise will do that to a man

When I go to EPCOT, I always start the World Showcase at Mexico. As I walk up to the temple I can remember every other time I have done so since I was 6.

Let's see..Everytime I walk into MK and see the castle for the first time and each time is like the first time. Everytime I look around and see kids, families, ect so full of excitement and joy (love that) Just strolling around World Showcase daytime or night time (beautiful every time), When we are driving down I4 and see the Mickey Mouse pole, also when we enter the gates of WDW, and definitely last but not least is checking in. I love when they give you your packet and let you know where your room is and say "have a maical stay or day." I love the feeling of it sinking in that you are really there.

Oh, and it always magical when I get my first ice cold adult beverage at Epcot

My heart stops and my eyes widen when I'm walking through the TTC and I hear the Walt Disney World Railroad's train blow it's whistle when pulling into the Mainstreet station. That thing is LOUD! I can't believe you can hear that from all the way across the lagoon. Also, I've always been in love with trains since I was a little kid, so that just adds to the magic for me.

Lets see...
Waking up realizing I'm still at WDW, entering any Park first thing in the morning, a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone at Plaza Ice Cream Parlor, just walking through any of the Parks at night,...
Good grief! The list is ennnnnnndlesssss...!

 

[FettFan]

The smell of diesel exhaust from the parking lot trams when I'm passing under the monorail track.

EDIT -- Let's just say that if DisneyCo does decide on going the ecological/economical route and replacing them with electric trams, I will be very sad.

 

[JIMINYCR]

When I check in at the resort desk and the CM greets me with a smile and says Welcome back.
When I step through the MK turnstiles and get that feeling of anticipation of whats to come for the day.
When I sit down to experience the first ride of the trip ( Always Splash Mountain )

 

[CP_alum08]

We almost always go to MK on our first day, so walking under the train station for the first time every trip. The sounds and smells always bring a huge smile to my face!

Whenever I visit, I always make a non-emergency stop of my vehicle under these signs to take pictures.

Getting off the plane and waiting for DME, Going under the WDW sign, entering my room for the first time. Oh, and getting my Sam Adams Octoberfest beer with candied almonds at EPCOT in the morning, sounds weird, but we do it every September.
