    October, 1971. I was 15. The Magic Kingdom had only been open a few weeks. The Contemporary and Polynesian hotels were there, but not much else. No Epcot, no other parks or resorts. There was no Space Mountain, Splash Mountain or Big Thunder yet, but it did have 20K Under the Sea. We camped off-site. Had to buy the old A-E ticket books, each ride required use of a ticket. I still have some of those old A tickets.

    Summer 1978. I was 4, my younger sister was 2 (my youngest sister was around 6 months old, she stayed behind at my aunt's house).

    I don't remember anything about the trip. I do remember coming home & taping a Disney map to the wall (it was pretty big). I don't remember the picture being taken, but we did have a picture of my & my younger sister w/Snow White I think it got lost in a basement flood.

    After that trip, I didn't get back to WDW until 1997 (1996?) and have been going every year since

    First trip to WDW was in June, 1980 for our 5th wedding anniversary.

    Now DisneyLAND is another story. My first trip there was on Opening Day - August 17, 1955. I wasn't quite 2yo but I was there!!!!!

    I didn't make my first trip to WDW until 1988 when I was 36!

    I've made up for my tardiness though. I've been back at least once every year since!
    May all the days of your life be filled with Magic!

    I went with my family as a 12 year old in 1983. I wish I could remember more about it. We spent one day in MK and one day in the relatively new Epcot. The attractions I remember most are Space Mountain, Carousel of Progress, Spaceship Earth, and Universe of Energy. My sister and I were also delighted by the fountains near the Imagination Pavilion.

    We stayed at the High Q in Orlando. We were very near Wet and Wild water park. It was the first water park we had ever been to.

    In 1985 when I was 3. I remember Dumbo and seeing Goofy! Mom still talks about how Dad (being from a small town in WV where men never wore shorts at the time) was miserable in his jeans since we went in July. Refused shorts the entire trip but bought some before the next!
