Having been to WDW only twice, I'm not sure. Although I might count rushing over to Country Bears just in time to make the last showing for the day.

hmm....favorite moment in the MK....probably running undercover during a flash-rainstorm in New Orleans Square...That was the moment that I realized that I was actualy in Florida at WDW.

I remember going to Walt Disney World and meeting Mulan, Shang, and Mushu all together at Disney's Hollywood Studios back in 04 (Shang is extremely rarely seen at Walt Disney World) and after that, they had to go in.
Also, I remember seeing at the spur-of-the-moment Launchpad McQuack, Terk, Mushu, Meeko, and (I think) Genie right at the front of Disney's Animal Kingdom in 2007 just before they went in for their break.

Stupid stories. I have nothing better to tell you.

Either watching the fireworks in the pouring rain while still being warm because dot was hugging me from behind and sharing that special moment or watching the first 3 floats of Spectro go by at super fast pace because they were out just before the rain came down and the 5 minute warning sounded as the parade just got to us so the two audios were mixed up

My favorite story from Magic Kingdom was during my birthday. The first day My family and I get to the Polynesian, the fab 5 are in the lobby. Then, we get to the Magic Kingdom and the Mayor of Main Street saw my birthday pin and had everybody on Main Street sing Happy Birthday to me. Then, we are just getting off of Test Track and the family next in line saw that it was my birthday also, and gave us an extra ride! Its amazing sometimes how people can be so so nice. All that and the Cast Members being so friendly. That was by far my favorite trip.

My funniest experience in the MK was back in 2005 during MVMCP. I was dashing across the park from Froniterland to Tomorrowland to meet with the rest of my group. The parade was about to go through Froniterland, so I had to get to the hub through Adventureland.

As I was making my through, I noticed that the Country Bears were out in Adventureland because of the parade. Wendell and his CM broke off from the group and started playing around, like taking Wendell's scarf off and tying it around a pole and swinging around in circles. No one was else was around watching so I videotaped them, and then when they finally noticed me Wendell jumped back in shock and pretended he was having a heart attack! Probably my funniest moment I've had with the walkarounds.

I just went to Disneyworld for the first time ever. It was amazing!!! I think the coolest MK moment was riding Big Thunder three times in a row right before closing while the parade was going by. It was dark, which made it soooo cool, and nobody was in line. We had fastpasses for the first ride, but after that we just walked right up.

Another thing I'll remember is: we had just gotten to the park and wanted to go fastpass Splash Mt. A family was walking by trying to get someone to take five fastpasses to Splash Mt......they were leaving and couldn't go or something....so we took them. We had exactly five people who wanted to go on. It was pretty sick. lol

I have two favorite memories at the Magic Kingdom. The first was my first time walking into the Magic Kingdom. I was on my work tour and we were able to walk in before the park even opened up. It was soooo amazing! We walked up main street and some people from the shops were waving high to us in mickey hands and welcoming us to the company. It was funny, my first time in the Magic Kingdom was a cast member of the magic kingdom (and this was last august...lol)

My second favorite memory was in Fantasyland. I was working at Seven Dwarfs mine and the fire work show just finished. There was this little girl with her mom and she was crying. (the fireworks scared her) I don't like seeing the little girl so sad so I went up to her with a gift behind my back. I went to her and said hello to her mom and I said hi to the little girl. She stared at me and I asked her, Did the fireworks scare you? She nodded. And then i said, "Can I give you something?" She looked at me and nodded again. I took a pink shiny rock I had behind my back and said, When the fireworks were going off one night Tinkerbell flew over the castle and some pixie dust fell on some of the rocks and I had the chance to get one. I told her that this rock was magic and that if she held it tight when she is scared it would make her feel better. The little girl smilled and took the rock. She stoped crying and her parents said thank you and were on their way. It is the small things that someone can do that can make a big impact on a family. The little girl had a great time the rest of the night and she did not cry. That was my magical moment.

(It is amazing that some guests recognize you too. I was working with mickey on day as a character attendant and the next day I was a guest at EPCOT. Well i took the disney bus from epcot to animal kingdom for work again and on the way there this little came up and said HI, I said hi back and her mom came up with her. The little girl said, Do you remember me? I saw you yesterday with mickey! I said yeah I remember. I am suprised that this little girl remembered me. I talked with them in line the day before telling her how nice of a guy mickey really was. She was brave enough to see him. I saw her again that day working again. It was so funny. I guess cm can make an impression on a guest...lol)
