"I am here"

[Isafari]

What situation/smell/sound etc makes you say to yourself "I am here" when you are in Florida?
You know what I mean....you take a deep breath and give a contented sigh....you are actually here after all the planning and saving.

For me, it is right at the beginning of the holiday when we get our first blast of Florida air and sunshine at the airport....I am so content to have arrived!
Also listening to the voice on the monorail "stand clear of the doors"

That blast of humidity as you exit the airport terminal and then that purple "Welcome to Walt Disney World" arch.

Yep DW always says the same, she knows she's "there" when she goes under the arch

I am so with you on the palm trees, just seeing them from the plane windows is enough to say Fla./Disney for me.

For me, it used to be the WDW arch that you drive beneath when entering the property. I knew then that I was "home" and it was going to be all out fun for days!

Now, it's hearing "Welcome Home" at the DVC resorts.

In Ireland it was the soft mist on my face at 7:00 AM that first morning as we exited the airport. The air was incredibly fresh, and the mist was gently in the air. I knew I was home then, you see.

I can't wait for that - I know I will cry The same as I did when they announced us when we got on the Disney Wonder last year

Yep for me it's the heat and the cleanliness at MCO and the Welcome to Walt Disney World signs. I also love that first ride on the Monorail - I want that mans voice on my Sat Nav

Its the welcome arch for me too. It feels fantastic when you see the sign and you know you are in for a cool time at disney.

When I hear the humming sounds of the crickets I know I am in Florida. ::::
