    well, a time or two while my mom was pregnant, but the first live trip was 1988 when I was 7 months old. First trip I really remember was 1995. I was finally talk enough for space mountain. My parents told me it was a slow ride that talked about the planets. Boy was I surprised, when my rocket took off!

    March, 1972, I was 19 and on spring break. We then went back in August for our honeymoon, stayed off-site, and returned in March, 1974, to stay on-site at the CR. I have stayed on-site an average of once a year since then. Myself and my girls love it - it is truly our happy place!

    Oh, this is sad, because I can't remember! I know we were on one of those tour vacations, where you got three days for MK and two free days for "Wet & Wild" or "Sea World", Epcot wasn't open yet, still being built. You needed three days for MK because it was soooooo crowded, and fastpass hadn't been invented yet! There was only one "mountain" Space mountain and it was the hottest ride, with two hour waits. I remember wanting to live in one of the "upstairs apartments" on main street!

    I was abused as a child, well not really, but I was 30 years old the first time I went to MK. It was in 2005. I am now in love with Disney and am planning my third trip.

    my first trip was around 1995 and i was probably 11 or so. we didn't stay on the property and honestly i don't remember a whole lot about disney world. we did stuff off property as well so it wasn't a solely disney trip. my first trip on property wasn't until 2005 and i don't think i will ever stay off property again!

    It was 1987 and I was 11 years old (turning 12 later that year).

    We went with our twirling group and band. We performed on Main Street !! I did fall in love with it then!! I loved the monorail... JIYI was my favorite Epcot Center ride and I loved POTC and the People Mover in MK!!

    Smile Oh, the Memories!

    For me, it was Christmas Day 1971, and I was 13. We camped offsite, with a large group of people. I distinctly remember the crowds, and trying to decide what attraction to burn those coveted E tickets on! I also remember telling my mom on the drive back to our campground "This was the best day of my life!" - and really meaning it! I've been hooked ever since.
    First trip, Christmas 1971.

    Ever since a really young age, my dad promised we'd go to Disney World and my dad never broke promises so it was 1998 and I was 10 though we stayed offsite and my sister wasn't with us as she was on a band trip.

    It was a great time but I still think every year it gets better walking into MK on that first day of our trip...

    i think our first trip to wdw was in 1986 which would put me at 4 years old. i only remember bits and pieces.

    -we stayed at the treehouse villas. i remember what the outside looked like and the bedroom had a big mirror

    - i remember riding the railroad with my cousin kegan

    - i remember seeing cap't e-o at epcot

    and i just remember bits and pieces of rides.

    1977, I was five. We went on a bus from Pennsylvania with our high school band. That bus really stunk! No really, it really did smell!

    First visit was 1980, and I was six years old. Then. . . we never stopped going back!

    The first time I went was April 1983. I was 7 years old. My uncle lived outside Orlando and cousin had just been born. I think we only went into MK one day while we were there, but it made a lasting impression on me.
