Your "Must-Do" Each Trip....

[RavsRuleDisney!]

Especially for multi trippers to the World, what is that must do ride/attraction you never fail to re-visit when returning whether for the kiddies, personal nostalgia, etc.??

For us it is TS at MK - more for me than the DS' as it's the first ride I remember going on as a 10-year old back in the early 70's. And we always take a no-destination ride on the monorail, especially when you could ride up front.

:car::flag2:

[EJS-Houston]

There are multiple "must-do"s for me, actually: "Haunted Mansion," "Space Mountain," "Splash Mountain" and the Wedway People Mover (sorry...I know it has a new name but my middle-aged brain refuses to learn it) in Magic Kingdom..."Mission Space," "Soarin'" and "Spaceship Earth" at Epcot..."Tower of Terror" and "Rock'n'Roller Coaster" at Disney Studios...and "Dinosaur," "Kilamanjaro Safaris" and "Expedition Everest" at Animal Kingdom. Clearly I'm a creature of habit. :geek:

[Joannelet]

First of all we are neighbors! So hi!
I have to say the one ride that I have to go on everytime is pirates. It brings me back to my childhood. I have been there over 100 times and can still remember riding that ride as a little girl!

[AllDisney]

We have a few as well:

Pirates, ToT, Bugs Life, Toy Mania, Soarin'

Gosh there are SO many things, but these just popped into mind:thumbsup:

[CosmicRay]

Pastries in France :cloud9:
Pearls for daughters in Japan :princess:

[MississippiDisneyFreak]

I would be devastated if I couldn't do Haunted mansion so I guess that's my number one must do...other runners up

MK-Pirates of the Caribbean
AK-Safari and Tough to be a bug
DHS-Great Movie Ride
Epcot-World Showcase

[darthmacho]

As far as attractions, I'd say most of the big tickets are "must-dos", especially Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, Haunted Mansion, and Pirates at MK. I don't think it would quite be a WDW vacation without one of these main attractions.

As for the smaller things, I'd say a Crystal Palace breakfast is becoming a "must-do/tradition" on our first full day at the parks. :mickey:

[crazygoalie39]

Number 1 overall must-do is Haunted Mansion. It's my all-time favorite ride. Others would be...
MK: PoTC, Peter Pan, Wishes, Casey's hot dog
Epcot: Spaceship Earth, Soarin', Designated day for WS
DHS: Great Movie Ride, ToT, TSM, Backlot Tour, Muppet Vision
AK: Kilimanjaro Safaris, EE, FotLK

[Momto3littlemice]

Pretty much everything!

Actually Dumbo and the Carousel are probably my most nostalgic rides... and I am pretty nervous to see what happens to Dumbo after the expansion...:mickey:

[ryca1dreams]

ummmm....Space Mountain

[In my dreams]

Everything!! Everything I've already done that is...LOL!

I want to experience something new every trip. This past AUG it was dining at the Plaza Restaurant and the Rose and Crown.

This NOV it will be taking the Steam Trains tour. Can't wait!!


And I always buy more pins than I tell myself I should and I always come home with a new keychain, too!!

[LVT]

Small world of course. I used to know the words.http://www.intercot.com/discussion/images/icons/icon11.gif

[joonyer]

Besides all the attractions that we love, the one thing we always MUST do is watch Wishes from Main street in front of Cindy's castle at least once during our visit (usually we see it several times). It's the essence of Disney Magic to me. And I love fireworks!

[lovinmesomedisney]

As much as physically possible!! We pretty much end up doing everything we wanted several times. We also go off peak, and spend our time in a park, open to close every day on our trip.

[lettripp]

We always make it a goal to ride Splash Mountain at night, when it is cold, so we can go around and around as many times as we like!! It has become quite a tradition of ours :mickey:
