Could it be the vomit in the seat they tried to sit me in on space mountain? Or perhaps, it was the adult female I saw pick her nose and it, in the Snow White line...talk about not touching handrails after that. 3.Nicest: When my daughter told Sleeping Beauty that she learned to use the potty because she didn't want to pee on her picture, and Sleeping Beauty took it all in stride and congratulated her.

Nicest: Hearing the gentleman walking in front of me compliment each sweeper as he walked by them for doing such a wonderful job in the park.

Apparently that made him believe he was now part of our party. / He talked the whole time, even through the fireworks & kept trying to make jokes with my kids (4 & under at the time). I am a semi nervous mom but I try to be nice & not judge, but this guy just gave me the creeps. Then he told us that he comes all the time because he is in love with Minnie but that his lives 3 hours away. Ugh I still get the creeps, my husband & I quickly said goodbye & left as soon as the FWs were over. Too many happy moments to list, I have about 20 every trip. )

Then she looked up at me and said, "Auntie Jennifer thank you for taking me to disneyland." It was one of those magical moments I'll never forget.
Originally Posted By crazycroc I had one of those extra nice moments about a year ago, we had just driven all day to get there, and so I was exhausted. My kid who is now a sarcastic tween, said, "Can we go, now?" So, against my better judgement as exhausted Papa, I took her that night. We arrived just as Julie Andrews was yapping about "Walt Disney was...." during the Wishes fireworks ceremony. She wanted to ride Big Thunder so we did the fireworks two-step around the hub, through the crowdedest of crowds. I looked over at she was crying. I thought something was wrong and asked her, but she said, "Thank you so much for taking me Disneyland so often, you always make sure it's so nice for us, I love it here so much." I bet it was fairly amusing for the rest of the crowd to see a bawling 35 year old biker looking dude walking to Big Thunder.

I guess the most creepy was when we went into the Main St. Movie Theater and we saw a man in there. I was with my husband and daughters, and the guy was in there alone. He kept staring at my kids. Gave me the creeps so I told my hubby I wanted to leave. He seemed irritated that I wanted to leave so soon, but we did. As soon as we got out I told him the guy gave me the creeps. 2. Grossest was when a mom let her little boy pee in the bushes in the Casey Jr. queue, right in front of us! 3. Nicest -- SOOOOOOOO many, that's what keeps us going back!!! I guess when my youngest was 1 and she was afraid of Pluto, so Pluto got down on the floor and spent a lot of time letting her get used to him. --Once we were standing in line to see Snow White and a CM who was in a shirt and tie, don't know his official job, talked to my girls the whole time. My youngest, who was 3 at the time, told him all about her favorite rides, Pirates and HMH. His name was Bob, and the kids still talk about him. --Last year my dd, who was 7 at the time, started to really love Pooh Bear. She wrote him a note and I went to take her to go see him and give him the note. The line was REALLY long, so I talked her into giving the note to one of Pooh's handlers to give to Pooh. Well, the handler insisted on taking us over to Pooh so dd could give him the note herself. That was a truely special moment. --On our last trip we stopped to ask a nice cast member a question about the Castle holiday lighting and snow on Main St. He walked with us to Reindeer Roundup so he could make a phone call to get answers for us. He ended up dreaming my daughters with the flag retreat ceremony.

Originally Posted By tenesmus I'm sorry to say that I may have been part of someone's creepiest moments. As a teenager, a friend and I, who went to Disneyland too frequently, got bored and decided to follow some girls around. We weren't scoping them out, and had no intention of approaching them, but we did follow them from a distance for most of the day (8 hours or so), doing everything they did. It took several hours for them to notice that we seemed to be everywhere in the park. I hope it didn't creep them out, it wasn't our intention, but looking back it could have. Grossest moment would have to be seeing kids spit from the skyway (one reason it will never come back). The nicest moment would have to be an entire day. We have a son with autism, and Disneyland was always a chore for him. He liked rides, but would scream, hit, kick and run away from lines etc. so we would usually get a special assistance pass, to be able to enjoy the day. When he was about 7 we had a day at the park where he stayed in lines, and enjoyed everything without using the pass. You don't know how much a normal day is worth to parents with a special needs child.

We went to Mickey's house. Mickey was on the front porch. My grandson stopped in his tracks dropped his mouth and just stared at Mickey which seem forever. Then Mickey gave him a big hug. After we left Mickey's house he looked at me and said Thanks Granny for bringing me to Disneyland. Everytime and NOW I think about that moment I turn to mush. What's really exciting this year is he is now 10 and him and I ONLY are taking his lil sister. She is 3 and calls me almost everyday to tell me she wants to go to Disneyland. She loves TINK. Of course she will have the Tink complete outfit. I can't wait until she sees Mickey and TINK. AWESOME !!! Why would anyone want to go anywhere else. :O)))
