It use to be that first site of the castle. Now that I go all the time though there really isnt much that gets me going. I like the smell of pop corn. When I go with peopel and its thier first time the castle can get me going but i rarely go with people on their first time.

Well, let's see.
I suppose the first, first trigger is going under the arches, as many people have noted.
Then, if we're staying at the Wilderness Lodge, then going through the huge doors and feeling the blast of cold air.
Then, regardless of which resort, once we get our bags into our room and click on resort t-v and prepare to head out.
Then, the smell of diesel from the buses, if we at an All-Star, or sitting back in the boat if we're at the Lodge.
Then, walking under the tracks at the train station.
I've been known to practically skip down Main Street USA.

Mine is getting off the plane at the airport, or maybe even before then when you're low enough to look out the window and see palm trees and pools in every yard. When was little I always looked forward to riding the rail vehicle in the airport because our airport didn't have anything like that at the time, and I also made my family stop and look in the Disney store there so I guess that counts too. Also, to this day every time I hear the word "beeline" I think of going to Disney because all I knew back then was that somehow it would get us from the airport to our hotel and Disney.

Without doubt it's going into MK for the first time, the build-up from the time you step off the monorail, go through the turnstiles, through the tunnel (I have to get a map, its like my security blanket, i don't use it but I like to hold it) and then come out and smell the popcorn, then walk to the middle of mainstreet look at the castle, and feel the same way I did the first time I ever saw it, that feeling is priceless.

Hey we are going Sept 24 also!!!
My very first trigger is the very decorated LPGA Blvd on 95 just before Daytona. (That means only an hour to go)
My second trigger is the "Welcome Home" that we recieve as we check into our Disney Vacation Club Resort. Hearing those words definately make me feel like I have arrived.

I've got a few triggers, dependant upon the situation.
If my wife and I are going to the MK for a day, it's typically our play argument on whether or not we take the resort monorail (which is my pick) or the express (which is her pick). We take the resort every time, because deep down, we both like it more. :lol:
If we're staying at a resort, I think the trigger for both of us is when I get impatient standing in line and make a beeline for the merchandise store. Or...if I'm behaving that day, I'll stand next to my wife and just read stuff off the guide maps to her like it's brand new, even though we've seen it all a hundred times.

The first trigger is rolling under the purple arch...
The "I'm really here" trigger is turning on the TV and the "Countdown" with Stacy is playing in the background. Even my DW keeps it on that channel for the most part.
Two trips to go this year! (MNSSHP, and my PRI solo trip!)
