What makes you cry at WDW?

[Brer Panther]

I'm usually okay until it's time to board the plane back home.

Packing and going to bed the night before we leave

Thinking of my parents and all the trips we made back in my youth, and how they are no longer around to enjoy it with me. They especially loved Epcot, and pretty much always ate in Germany (hey, they were literally off-the-boat Germans). Many a Christmas vacation were spent at WDW!

It's the music that usually gets me. Not sure I literally shed a tear but get emotional at different points of my trip.

Oh wow, I am not to that point yet, but when it happens I will be there with you.

I haven't ever actually cried, but I do get fairly significant post WDW disorder that kicks in about 2 days after I get home and runs for about two freakin months. ...then a light case for another 3.

This board helps. Like, a lot. =)

Based on the online menu prices I've seen, I think the bill at California Grill is going to make me cry like a little girl.

That last look at Magic Kingdom before we leave for two more years usually will water my eyes a bit.

Finding out my favorite attraction will be unavailable for the entire length of my trip.

The magic that I see light up in my sibling's eyes when they go to Disney for the first time. I've seen it in one brother's eyes - I can't wait to see my sister's reaction, especially because she's five and is in that Disney saturated obsession.

Also, got to admit...Wishes makes me tear up a bit, every time. So does going back to Main Street for the first time in forever.

Disney bus running over my foot. I imagine that would really hurt.

Flag retreat and smiles on all the children meeting their favorite characters bring happy tears.
The DME envelope hanging on the door bring the sad ones.

I don't cry being the manly man that I am, but I do find that sometimes things get in my eye when i see a dad and his little girl having fun and it reminds me of when my girls were little. Dang it I just got something in my eye just now.

Magic Kingdom rope drop. Such a tradition through the years, gets me every time. Thank goodness for sunglasses

The singing of "The Circle of Life" by Zawadi in Festival of the Lion King. She gets me every time.
