Leaving tomorrow!
I am nervous. My last trip the WDW was not as magical as I hoped. This time I am adding my mother and lower, at least I hope, expectations, in hopes they will be exceeded.

To bring back the magic: try to relax and smell the roses...taking note of all the magic around you in the theming, rides, walkways, etc., and being in the moment, not expecting to have a blissful grin at all times, but a contentment at being in your happy place.
Good luck!
