Where in WDW is your “happy place”?

[Minnesota disney fan]

our resort, POR or POFQ. When we get there, it feels and smells so magical. I get that feeling right away and know that we are "home" and can relax and enjoy

It would be coral reef..but it’s not a good restaurant...

So I’d have to say the second floor of the wilderness lodge lobby...above the main entrance...or crew cups lounge at yacht club

The Haunted Mansion Graveyard, no doubt

Prob. Liberty Square or the UK pavilion.

Boardwalk! Especially very early in the morning or late at night.

Another vote for this

Sitting in the rocking chairs between Liberty Square and Frontierland whilst people watching.
Walking through the Space Mountain queue and hearing the music.
Having my wife snuggle up to me in the Sci-fi Dine in whilst we share a desert and milkshake.
The smell of MK first thing in the morning.
Enjoying fast food in Epcot's China pavillion again whilst people watching.
Enjoying the Citizens of Hollywood shows in the studios.
Walking through an empty park an hour before opening to enjoy a character breakfast.
That first acceleration on the R n R coaster as the adrenaline kicks in

WDW in general. It's just a nice and refreshing escape from reality, a place where you can forget about the problems of everyday life and enjoy yourself. If you're looking for specific locations, I have many: at the Poly walking around the resort enjoying the theming or by the beach/pool, at AKL looking out into the Savannah, at the Japan pavilion in EPCOT enjoying the calming atmosphere, outside the Tiki Room enjoying a Dole Whip... The list goes on and on, so I won't be able to explain everything

Either walking around the grounds of the GF or the monorail... Nothing can beat that to relax in the afternoon...

Whenever I’m in a painful situation (like getting a cavity filled) or a “push through” situation (like finishing the last mile of a tough run), I go to my happy place. Shockingly, mine is at WDW I assume most of yours are, too.

Specifically, I transport myself to walking down Mainstreet USA first thing in the morning when I can hear the music in the background and really smell the bakery and Starbucks.

What’s your WDW happy place?

I'm the same, I picture entering MK and going under the Railroad station and then just staring down Main Street USA

I'm walking right down the middle of Main Street USA

On the Liberty Belle

Just about anywhere in Epcot is my happy place. Pulling into the parking lot and seeing Spaceship Earth, hearing Future World music, a bench in World Showcase to people watch, etc.

For me, it starts much earlier...just seeing the sign on Osceola Pkwy. that says Walt Disney World does it for me!

This is so hard to answer for me personally and for others I am sure. There are just so many of 'em! I'm a Libra and am horrible at making decisions like this, so I am going to have to make a list! LOL Here goes!:

On a launch or ferry heading towards the MK on the Seven Seas Lagoon and looking at that amazing castle ahead!
Splash Mtn
On the PeopleMover in the tunnel when you are heading towards Space Mtn, I get giddy and a rush at that point!
The quiet pool at the Poly
Walking into the Haunted Mansion
Carousel of Progress
Lying in my bed in my room at night at like 3am with the slider door open (3rd floor of course!) and hearing the Hawaiian music playing at the Poly
Going up that first lift hill on Everest! What a rush!
Seeing Spaceship Earth from the Monorail for the first time on the trip - I get goosebumps
Spaceship Earth
Watching the MK's fireworks from the beautiful Ariel queue by the waterfalls. Holy sh....brought me to tears last summer, it did.


I have a dozen more, but wanted to keep the list short.

Main Street and that lovely garden in the Japan pavilion. The latter is off the main path and is just so nice and peaceful.
