First Disney Attraction and reaction to it: Nothing will ever match my first walk down Main Street in Disneyland! I know that it is not a ride but as an Attraction, it won my heart!!
Fav. Park and why: Disneyland!! Once again it was my first disney experience at the age of 20 and nothing will ever compare. I also believe that Disneyland had a way of making the attractions bigger and better then the Magic Kingdom.
Fav. Attraction and why: Space Mountain in Disneyland (notice a trend here). The music makes the ride!!
Fav. Show and why: Fantasmic!! In my opinion it is Disney at it's best! I do have to say that although I love Fantasmic at Disneyland, the Magic Kingdom show is a bit better.
Fav. Resort and why: Grand Floridian! OK, I have never stayed there but a girl can dream!
Fav. Restaurant and why: I am not going for the taste of the food here but for the atmosphere. I have to say Chef Mickey's because we have created many special memories there.
Fav. Snack at WDW: OH CANADA!! Maple and Chocolate Beavertail!! I want one NOW!!
Fav. Disney Tip: I love the one where once you enter the World Showcase in EPCOT, go left because everyone else goes right! But my favorite tip is to remember you are on vacation! There will be lines, heat, crowds, waiting, crying children, etc. so expect it and go with the attitude that you are at a wonderful place and your experience will be what YOU make it!
Fav. Disney Magical Moment/ Most Memorable Experience: It has to be the time my daughter and I were walking down Main Street in Disneyland after doing some shopping. The park was closing and the street was almost deserted. We turned to look at the Castle and she asked me Mommy, where is Walt Disney? I told her that he had died and he was in heaven, she said is he with Grandma and Grandpa and I told her yes. She then asked but Mommy where is he buried, I told her that I was not sure and asked her why she wanted to know that. She said, because Mommy, I want to put some flowers on his grave!!
Words of Wisdom: I have been a member of the DIS for 2 years now! I am so thankful for the lifelong friends I have made here and am so lucky to have found this magical place where I can share my love of everything Disney. |
