Your ONE reason for loving WDW

I work on cars day in and day out. Disney is the one place I have no deadline. I have no customer breathing down my neck for a rush job or a cheaper bill....
It also reminds me of my dad. He loved disney. He passed two years ago this month. When Im on small world and Peter pan, or just taking pictures of the castle, he seems to be right beside me like he was when I was younger.

Great post! I feel the same way concerning my grandparents. That may be the strongest reason for my love of WDW, the nostalgia runs deeper than just good memories, it's a deeply personal connection. The world changes, but by and large, I can go to the MK and still "see" yesterday. And that makes me smile.

Beautifully themed environments. We were in the Mexico pavilion at Epcot the other night, and I was reflecting with my wife on how it has always been my favorite part of World Showcase. There's something about the interior of that pavilion: the marketplace with its fountain, the mood lighting in the restaurant, and the boats floating past the pyramid and the volcano. It's a perfectly rendered "romantic Mexico" vignette, and I never get tired of it. Asia in Animal Kingdom affects me in much the same way. Not to mention attraction scenes like Bombardment Bay (PotC), the HM graveyard, the ancient history scenes in SE, etc.

the obvious reason is it makes me feel like a kid again. also brings back some memories growing up watching old disney movies & cartoons. nowadays, it's making new memories with my wife when we travel there.

When I enter Walt Disney World I feel that I have left everything else behind. I can just relax and joy the Magic.
This right here. When I cross the WDW line, everything else is left behind and forgotten. I am in another world until I am back at MCO for the return trip back home.

I don't care about the length of the lines, the crowds, the heat, the sporadic rain showers in the afternoon, the cold of a holiday visit, waiting for a seat at a QS or sit down restaurant, crying and whining children, it's all about the look and the smile upon my husband and daughter's faces when we finally walk down Main Street that makes it all worth it. Every time. Each visit it's a different smile from them, a different perspective of excitement. If I could bottle that look and wear it around my neck to always feel that way about seeing them like that, I would.

People ask me why I go back to Walt Disney World time and time again and I tell them this: If your Doctor gave you a prescription that made you feel like a kid again, made you happy, and made you forget about all your problems, if only for a little while, when that prescription ran out, wouldn't you ask for a refill?

We all probably have various and multiple reasons for why we love WDW so much, but can you break it all down into just one main, primary reason?

Because it's an out. The rest of the world is completely batstuff insane (Ebola! Teacher/Student Scandals! ISIS Beheadings! OH MY!) and Disney is the only place I can go that keeps me from going absofreakinlutely nuts.

And it's even worse now that we are in political-season. I hate hate HATE politicians.

On top of that, nothing else can inspire my sense of awe and wonder. I've traveled a lot to different places. You know the majestic Mount Rushmore? I'VE BEEN THERE AND IT SUCKS.

THIS is the hook. THIS is how they get you to drive to the middle of freakin nowhere:

Impressive, ain't it?

But then you make the drive and you get there and THIS is the reality:

BEHOLD THE GREAT LIE. ARE YOU SATISFIED?

I feel the same way about Colonial Williamsburg, which I've been to several times. If you make it an event including surrounding things, then it can be kind of cool, but Colonial Williamsburg itself is fun to see exactly ONCE, because it's always going to be 1776. It's not like you'll visit and they'll rush up to you saying, "Hey, look! We finally invented the cotton gin!"
