Among the best picnics, adult or otherwise, A Picnic in the Woods sets an example of optimistic picnic fun.  It begins with the usual refrain: “It’s a beautiful day for a picnic!” as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and Mickey’s nephews Ferdy and Morty cram into the blue convertible for a day in the country.

Soon, they arrive at a park picnic area with a table with benches, a fireplace, and a covered seating shelter.

They cook food, play games, fight mosquitos, escape the rain, and at last, happy and satisfied, they drive home top down in the blue convertible, of course.
