The bakery, popcorn, cookies, the lobby and so much more fill your nose when walking around the Walt Disney World Resort. What about that specific area or place you smell them at? A certain park? Food stand? Restaurant? Resort? What is it about that favorite scent that we love so much? Here are five fan favorites and by fan favorite, I believe I mean my favorites, but some of you definitely have to agree!
1. The smells of the Main Street U.S.A. Bakery
This is by far the best smell you will encounter when at the Magic Kingdom park. There is just something about that vanilla smell mixed with the different baked goods leaking through the open doors that make our mouths water, our stomachs growl in hunger and our minds to shut down.
2. The popcorn
The all too yummy and buttery popcorn you can find at one of many food stands. Every corner you turn you seem to find a popcorn stand and if you're willing to pay the few extra bucks, you can even purchase it in a souvenir container! This popcorn is delicious to eat as a snack to feed your ultimate hunger and the salty flavor will always make you want something sweet after.
3. Any resort lobby
Come on. Any Walt Disney World fanatic knows where I am going with this one. You walk into your home resort for the next week or two to check in and bam! You're hit with that certain smell that you will not find anywhere else. It's that lobby smell and when you get a whiff of it, you are at your happiest and we don't really know why.
4. Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe
Who doesn't love the smell of Christmas? Located at the Magic Kingdom Park in Liberty Square, this Christmas shop is filled with the smells of Christmas whether those smells range from pine to cinnamon. Whatever the case we love it and always find our feet taking us inside. Plus, what's better than a Disney Christmas store at Disney?!
5. The water rides
Last, but certainly not least are the all too famous water rides. Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean and much more! All of them smell the same and it makes all of us giddy on the inside. There is just something soothing about that water ride smell and we never get tired of it.
It doesn't matter what the smell is because, all in all, it makes us happy. Whether it be food, resorts, plants... The Walt Disney World Resort has it all and being that it's Disney it makes it that much better. The smells are forever embedded in our mind and if something similar comes along we automatically think of the original source it came from.
