I am doing a page named 10 Things I Love About Disney. 

We LOVE Disney World, but we are having a hard time NAMING 10 things we love about it....yeah, sounds easy, but, we need help.

we have come up with
RIDES (would be too many if we named them individually),
MEETING CHARACTERS
Topiairies
Dole Whip
Shows
Shades of Green (our hotel)
Shopping

Curious what other people might think of.
 

We love all the firework shows. All the different parades. Variety of eating places. If I think of more I will let u know.

Sandi - yes, I those were on my list (which I can't find right now)  Parades and Fireworks (seeing the castle lit up at night takes my breath away).

Family togetherness?  (at disney, your family spends time together)

Did your ride a shuttle?  We loved our buses/boats we took - so maybe transportation.

We used the bus' a lot, one day we used the ferry, but the Monorail was the favorite and most unique.

Magic
meeting characters
riding the monorail
riding the train
gift shops
creativity 
fantasy
belief that dreams can come true
turkey legs
fireworks
parades
castles
pixie dust
shows
popcorn
mickey balloons


please post your final top 10 when you get it.... I'd love to read it.

I just love everything about Disney...well, except maybe the price!  LOL!  I love the whole sense of magic I feel as soon as I step on property.  I love staying on site and all the different resorts and all the difference theming in each one.  I love how most of the cast members will gladly do whatever they can to help you.  I love feeling like I am leaving reality behind when I am there.  I love being together with my family, laughing and just enjoying time together.  I love interacting with the characters and watching the little ones in line in front of us get so excited to meet their favorites for the first time.  I love that Mickey Mouse now talks to you when you meet him!  SO cool!  I love the special events they do for Halloween and Christmas...I miss the Pirate Princess party.  I love looking for hidden Mickeys, watching the parades and fireworks, browsing through the gift shops.  I love people watching when I am there too!  I love having all the memories at the end of the day...pretty sure I could just go on forever!

I have never been to Disney Land or Disney World. Yes, that is my dream Vacation.  What about even Naming Favorite characters.

In addition to things you've already listed, the cast members for sure! And the overall feeling of magic. 

I think I have enough now.  I did not want to use individual rides or characters because there is more than rides and characters to talk about.  I could list more than 10 rides and more than 10 characters....that could be a whole different layout - Goof Idea!

Posing for pictures to prove you were there - lol!! 
Listening to the music

Fantasy
Magical
Hospitality
Adventures
Family Friendly

The food

saarah I was going to say food!  I love Ragland Road, Rose and Crown and many more, surprisingly for me the Cast Members, The Monorail, boats it would be easier to say what I don't like which is just the crowds.


Oh and I could do a whole page on the new magic bands love love love them.

Taking pictures with the characters!! 

and similar to this, taking lots of pictures to scrapbook later! 

Hidden Mickey's
Cinderella's Castle
The Customer Service

Hidden Mickey's.... One of the things that I always look forward to - seeing if we can find ones we haven't ever found!

I've never looked for Hidden Mickies.  I have heard of them, but I forgot about looking for them while we were there.

I know there's so much wonder at DisneyWorld, but my absolute favorite thing is the moment I step onto Main Street in the Magic Kingdom.  It transports me to those lovely, wonderful, magical, beautiful turn-of-the-century parks and IceCream Parlors you see in old movies like Carousel and Music Man.  Each time we go, if I get grumpy any where in any park, the kids immediately say "Lets go to Magic Kingdom" because they know that in that one split second my world has changed and a smile lights up not only my face, but my entire being.
