    I don't care how many times you've been to Walt Disney World, you're crazy if you don't get excited when you see this sign inching closer for the first time :=0) I know I do, it's one of my favorite sights to see!

      Beautiful. Gives me a funny feeling when I see this

      One of my favorite things to see! Usually you see these shots close up, I enjoy how widened it out a little.

      Our kids are so excited to see it in front of them, but sad to see it behind them as we head home. They forget they can come back real soon. I love it once we are inside the Disney property!!!!

    12. IceNineJon (50 months ago | reply)

      Ah, the sight every kid dreams of!

      This sign is a heart thumping moment for me every time I pass under it. I believe my blood pressure drops 20 points too.

      I will always remember the first time I saw that sign back in 2001... It was one of the happiest and most exciting days of my life!!!

    17. Helen Beresford (50 months ago | reply)

      So true! Wonderful composition, love the clouds too :0)

    18. ..Kelly. (50 months ago | reply)

      I haven't been since I was 10 (1976) and I don't even think this sign was up then...either that, or I was so completely insanely happy to finally be there that I blocked it out :-)

    19. Express Monorail (50 months ago | reply)

      You haven't been there since you were 10??? You really need to get back. A LOT has happened down there since 1976!

    20. Tom.Bricker (50 months ago | reply)

      The clouds really came out to play that day, didn't they?! Excellent shot, and one of my favorite sights!

      You're right! I do need to get back there! :)

    22. Jeff_B. (50 months ago | reply)

      Beautifully captured and amazing clouds! Completely agree, my two other favorite sights each tip are the first time you walk under the railroad station at the MK and the first glimpse of SSE.

    23. J.DoyonPhotography (50 months ago | reply)

      I hear you on that, and I totally agree!!!!!

    24. Duane Matsen (50 months ago | reply)

      Spot on Joe. And the excitement continues to grow as you get on the boats to take you to the gate entrance. Disney did a wonderful job with getting one ready to enter the “happiest place on earth”.

      We are planning on returning to WDW next year...and the excitement is already building.

      JOE CAN YOU STOP GIVING ME THESE IDEAS ON SPENDING ALL MY MONEY AND TORTURING ME TO GO TO WDW? haha. :P

    26. Jessica Stuart (50 months ago | reply)

      Best part of going to Disney! You honestly captured my favorite moment, you are amazing

    27. jljjld (50 months ago | reply)

      Couldn't agree more. Thanks for capturing it so well to bring back the memory!!

    28. dawnzy58 (50 months ago | reply)

      You know you're home when you see this:)

    29. Terry G Alexander (50 months ago | reply)

      I think I still get more excited than the kids at this sight.

      I have travelled this road once and it did indeed send shivers down my spine as we got closer. :-) Great perspective and lovely shot :-)

    32. MHammon (50 months ago | reply)

      I'm totally with you! Nothing better than the sight of the entrance sign....it gets me THRILLED every time! :D

      I figured out that feeling last time I was at Disneyland in Anaheim...it's the same feeling I felt as a kid on Christmas morning--but all the time I am there I have it. Wonderful feeling--and photo. :)

      Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Disney Transportation, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

      This is the point in which everyone in our car erupts into cheers and clapping.

    38. strawberrykim_ (45 months ago | reply)

      Everytime I drive past the sign it feels like I'm visiting WDW for the first time all over again! I just never get used to it!

      This photo is just wonderful!
