Part of the magic is bringing it yourself, knowing that we have it within ourselves, and taking it with you as you go in life everyday! It is really what you make of it! Some people just try to hard or not enough
it is a fine line
I can tell you slow down it will find you! Your kids picking up confetti
that would probably do it for me.. being there with my family and enjoying each others company and really seeing Disney through my kids eyes is enough for me
it is the little things that show the magic to me
I am listening to fantasmic on my itunes right now and I can picture my now 5 yr old who was 4 last year and her face watching fantasmic a year ago is vivid in my mind
and it wasnt the first time she had seen it, but you would have thought it was
I love having my kids out of the blue mention something from a trip and I know that it was so special to them that for no reason it pops into their head
I remember those moments from when I was a kid with my parents
and I can tell you it is the little things, like my Dad rubbing my calves in China because they hurt so bad, and him buying me a different pair of shoes, from their, they were black mary jane style (but Chinese) with bright flowers embroidered on themwhat I wouldnt do to have those again, or my Dad to share more magic with
so it is the little things
not the big things or the prizes and gifts
it is the special CM, or another guest that does something that shows the magic is there for most visitors
Yes there are some not so great employees( I wont even call them CMs) and I have encountered them myself, but I will never let it ruin my vacation
one of my best memories was from a trip two years ago, my niece, nephew, daughter and infant son and my mom and it was about 7ish and it was so-so busy
maybe 30 minute waits, and it started to rain
and kind of hard
we had ponchos, and a cover for the stroller so we were fine
shoes a little wet, but it stopped pretty quickly
but long enough to clear the park out
we stayed to close and laughed and stepped in puddles, rode ride after ride after ride, sometimes not getting off
and had the best night literally
and those kids will tell you the same
we often talk about it when we are there, the remember that night
and when it rains we hope for the same thing to happen. So it is what you make of it! We make it fun and magically!
