A fun exercise

Post by snugglyevil » Nov Sun 04, 2007 3:11 pm

I did this on another list I was on. It's always great to read peoples' thoughts.

OK...close your eyes...imagine you are at Disney at your favorite place. Where do you see yourself? What's going on?


for myself...I see myself sitting somewhere near Mouse Gears. The fountain show is going on and I'm just hanging out with my dad watching the world go by.

How about you??

I'm sitting outside of the Rose and Crown. I have a half a yard Black and Tan and some fish and chips. My DW and 2DS's are getting beaver tails (bring back the tails!!) and I'm just Watching the world go by with the sun shining warmly on my face. Life is good!

I'm walking slowly down the middle of Main Street USA in the Magic Kingdom, looking at the castle at the end getting bigger as I walk towards it, soaking up the atmosphere; Mickey ice cream in hand :)

I am...

Under the Columbia Harbour House building between Liberty Square and Fantasyland not sure whether to ride Haunted Mansion or it's a small world. I am contemplating why the line for Peter Pan's Flight is always so long.

I don't really know why I like this spot... :?

I have just passed thru the tunnel under the railroad station at the head of main street. I see the antique vehicles, and maybe a band. I savor the view of Cinderella castle for a few seconds. All the memories of bringing my young family there for the first time in 1985 flood my mind. Standing there with my daughters, sons-in-law, and granddaughters, my eyes well up with tears. I take the young ones by the hand and this 57 year old grandpa skips down main street. Cares of the world now gone. Life's good.

I'm sitting on Mainstreet after the park has closed, and just look at the castle changing colors while listening to the music and soaking up the tired, but still busy atmosphere of guests finishing up their day.

I'm lounging outside at the Polynesian resort along the beach at night and taking in Wishes from the Magic Kingdom.

I am sitting on my balcony at the Yacht Club watching the "World" wake up. Sunrise is happening and I can see hot air balloons in the distance and I'm wondering like I do on every trip why don't we sign up for that?!

Its by Test track, where the monorail track is. I'm standing there, it's dusk time with the sun setting, and the monorail passing by over head.

I'm sitting on the balcony off the 4th floor of the Wilderness Lodge, overlooking the pool. It's about 6:00am, noone else is awake and I have the place all to myself for a quiet cup of coffee. Peaceful, but looking forward to a busy day at the Magic Kingdom

Not my "favorite" place or anything, but I see my wife and I, after a quick breakfast at DAK, having a cigarette way off to the side of this one (closed, at the time) outdoor eating area. There's a river down below us, and on the shore is an African boat of some kind. Anyone know where/what I'm talking about. At the time we could turn around and look back across the walkway and see them building Everest (in 2005).

I'm sitting on a chaise lounge on the beach at Wilderness Lodge. The sun is just rising, mist above the water, a few birds flying overhead. Boats making their first journey out. Peaceful and beautiful. My happy place :)

spaulo, could it be Flame Tree BBQ? That comes to mind first.

Sitting by the pool at ASMusic in the morning with my coffee and a book waiting for the rest of the group to get up and get ready for the day.
