What’s your favourite things to do at Disney

What’s do you love doing at Disney?

Can be something big, a ride or perhaps a small moment in the day that is the highlight.

I love the first few minutes when you get in and walk up Main Street. Always feels really exciting and magical.

Would love to hear yours!

I love so many aspects of being at WDW (rides obviously!) but something I appreciate more and more is simply time to just take it slow, stroll around, take everything in, sit and look around, listen to the music piped in, and watch everyone around me. I have spent many trips rushing around and sticking to an unrealistic plan. Those days are over. I love just being in the presence of the place.

Take in the ambient sounds and smells (the latter is a strong provoker of memories). Relax and enjoy being back. Dole WHIPS!

 

[DarthVader]

For me its the entire ambiance, each park as its allure, whether we're talking about Epcot, MK, or AK. My favorite is the magic kingdom. There's so much to do there and enjoy

The first hour a park is open is my favorite time, I like night time too, but I am a morning person and that first hour just seems magical to me. Everyone is so excited for their day and all the possibilities of fun and that positive vibe just radiates. It just adds a little extra spark of fun for me.

Those moments you step into a resort, whether hopping or coming home from a long day, and hear the silence, walk into a grand lobby, and explore every nook and cranny of the place!

 

[BoarderPhreak]

It often starts with "Welcome home."

 

[JIMINYCR]

Well we love once we arrive we can rest, relax and enjoy/ experience so many varieties of entertainment at our pace. Soaking in the unique atmosphere and theming that Disney has provided everywhere we go.

 

[Rumrunner]

That walk down Main Street is so special and unique. Probably not another place in the world that can elicit those special feelings.

See Cinderella's Castle, especially when it's lit up at night.

Landing at MCO and getting off the plane. Getting out of the car at the hotel and walking into the lobby I am so excited. And I say to myself I am here.

Yes, there is no feeling like finally arriving after months of anticipation. And it isn't just pulling into the resort: it's seeing green Central Florida scrubland and landscaped palms and gardens out the window as the plane descends after a boring flight, touching down in the still-sunny late afternoon and knowing it will be sunset by the time you get to the hotel, feeling just the tiniest kiss of warm air while exiting the plane and stepping onto the jet bridge, walking through the airport toward the Magical Express wearing winter jeans and sweaters, meeting your first cast members outside the ME boarding area (your first Disney queue of the trip!), boarding and finally setting off for Walt Disney World, partially watching the choppy / needs-to-be-updated Magical Express video but mostly looking out the window at the houses, schools, businesses just on the outskirts of Disney Word and wondering what it is like to live there, entering the property feeling you know the way but being mistaken as the bus turns off in an unexpected direction, and then finally pulling into the resort and disembarking into the warmth to walk through the entrance and lobby past cheerful families well into their vacation mode wearing swim shorts and flip flops and carrying refillable drink mugs -that's when the last bit of stress finally leaves (you'll build some more up in the week to come, of course) and it's enough for me just to sit around the resort that evening and soak it in.

I love walking through the parks and watching the families interact and the excitement that I see in their eyes. I am there a lot for business so riding the rides isn't a priority. I just love taking it all in!

I *love* the taste testing place. Remember spending ages in there as a teenager trying the (mostly disgusting) drinks. I don’t believe I tasted one that had the flavour of depression but....looking forward to it?!

 

[rcapolete]

My favorite thing is walking into MK and seeing Main Street. Brings such a rush to me and allows me to forget all my worries. Still is the happiest place on earth to me

I wake up earlier than the rest of my family and I like to go down to the lobby and sit and read the days news on my phone, but also I like to watch other people getting ready to go to the park, or go to eat or do what I am doing and just watch others. Everyone has the whole day a head of them and there is so much potential for everyone to have fun.
