The Disney "Zip a Dee Doo Dah Feeling"

I get so excited as soon as I get on the tram in Orlando International and head for the main terminal. I know that it's all about to begin.

I think the most wonderful moment is when I am on Main Street. I just absolutely love Main Street and the feeling that I get whenever I am on it each and every time.

Whenever I leave the Magic Kingdom for the last time, I always look back for one last look and say goodbye to Main Street USA!

Me too! Don't they still have Jack Wagner's voice on the airport tram? I was there last fall and I am pretty sure it was still there.

I know when I'll get that feeling next... when I hear "Ladies and gentlemen, we are beginning our descent into the Anaheim area. Please return your seat backs and tray tables to the upright position. Thank you."

It'll be neat because it's been almost two years since I flew to Disneyland, and never have I actually flown in to John Wayne/Orange County Airport. Usually LAX, sometimes Long Beach.

Should be fun!

It really depends. Sometimes I won't feel it until I see the actual place. As a kid, the magic awakened when I spotted the Matterhorn from the street.

But this time I got so totally excited just as the trip was confirmed. As soon as my friend told me the flights were booked, I just had this huge stupid smile on my face. But I probably won't be excited until finals are over, and FREEDOM!!

The feeling for me is that there is nothing in the world but my wife and my kids with me and they are what I am all about. Disney is truly a magical place where families can reconnect and spend time in a world away from the conflict and negativity that is so prevalent in our world today.

I think the feeling hits me the moment I come into Main St. after walking under the arch and I realize I am in the Happiest Place on Earth! I also get the feeling on Splash Mountain in the Zip-a-dee-doo-dah section because that is my all time favorite disneyland song!

I did that when I was there! On my last night at WDW I went to the cast preview of the Very Merry Christmas Parade (which took place at something like midnight), and as I left, I looked back at the castle from the other end of (the empty) Main Street.. So magical

Wow I do that too. On our last day we usually hop between the MK and Epcot and say good bye to the castle and Spaceship Earth.

I always get that feeling once I drive past the entrance into Disney and step into the hotel. The best feeling though is when Illuminations is playing, and just standing there gives me that great feeling everytime.

Ahh yes, IllumiNations. The first fireworks show I saw at WDW

...and the one I saw most often

Standing in line for the teacups and hearing the area music puts me in a place like no other. Instantly my daughters are three and four years old again and I can picture their excitement and anticipation for what is about to happen. That's my Disneyland Happy place...
