First ride you ride when you return to WDW...

[finaldynasty]

If MK is first, I ride the train to Frontierland, pick up a FP for Splash or Big Thunder then head to Pirates!

It would be hard for me to pass POTC on the way to BTM or Splash Mountain.

[emmatink]

@MK...anything in fantasy land

@Epcot....Soarin

@AK...Safari

@DS...Toy Story Mania

[ShinynewJB]

Probably Splash Mountain for us. I seem to recall it was both the first and last ride of our last trip and the first ride of the trip before.

I think Splash Mountain is the quintessential Disney experience for us. I can't imagine a trip to WDW without it.

I guess normally it would be Peter Pan's Flight. But, for as many times as we've been and as much as we plan, we still seem to end up walking up Main Street asking each other, "where do you want to go first?"

[RavsRuleDisney!]

Well....depending on which park is day #1 we usually hit up BTMRR or Splash at MK, Soarin' or TT at Epcot, Toy Stort at HS, and Safari or EE at AK.

[KylesMom]

Now that DS is older, each park kinda goes like this:

MK = Space Mountain
Epcot = Test Track (on rare occasion Soarin')
AK = Expedition Everest
DHS = Tower of Terror (on rare occasion TSMidway Mania)

Last? A toss up depending upon the crowds the afternoon of our departure. When possible, it's Space Mountain.

Our first ride is always PoTC.

[WDWCrazyKaren]

It's always Spaceship Earth for us. We seem to always take the same flights, which get us there around 11:00AM. Check in at the hotel, and then bus straight to Epcot. The entire family knows this, and there is never any question about where we are going the second we step off the plane! After Spaceship Earth, I don't care. But standing in that line for the first ride of the trip tells me and the whole family, that we now have our entire trip ahead of us. It's kind of a "new beginning" for us each time. Wishing I was standing there right now!

[disneydeb]

Epcot = Soarin',
DS = TSM
MK = Peter Pan
AK = Everest, get FP, then Safari

[Martino]

It would have to be Haunted Mansion for me

I insist on it everytime.

If I was ever made a choice of riding HM once and nothing else at MK or
Riding everything else once and not Haunted Mansion......

HAUNTED MANSION WOULD WIN EVERY TIME!

150 days and counting....

[mousetrapper]

Our first ride has always been IASW -- to us, it's the quintessential Disney ride and it really sets the tone for our trip. I know it bugs a lot of people but we love the nostalgia of it.

Last ride is more up in the air -- a few times it's been ToT (pardon the pun!). It really just depends on where we end up that last day.

[mouseketeer mom]

Our first and last rides are always PIRATES!!!!!

[pamickeys]

The first ride that we come to that has NO line.

[CU Tiger]

We either go to EPCOT or DW as our first stop. For MK, the first ride would be SM and for EPCOT it would be MS. This is my choice, my DW and DDs might argue this.

[WDW&MK]

POTC is always first because we spend our first day at MK - classic Disney. We spend our last full day at MK and then the day we fly home we spend a partial day at DHS so last ride is always RnRC. It's awesome to ride RnRC in the morning and think about it at home thousands of miles away before we go to sleep that night. Of course it's sad too, because by that time......I want to go back!!

[MirandaC]

we usually like to hit BTMR, it is my DD absolute favorite ride!!

i enjoy ToT, starts our vacation w/ a BANG!!

hubby likes star tours, we are super excited about the new version!!

We will be there May 27-June 2!!

[syndrome]

Epcot: Test Track
MK: Buzz Lightyear/Space Mountain
HS: Toy Story Mania
AK: Everest

Last ride is usually something relaxing like TTA or WDW RR.

[MrPeetrie]

Things have changed for us since we've had kids. When it was just my wife and I, we'd always go to Animal Kingdom right after check-in. We'd eat at Rainforest and go ride "It's Tough to be a Bug." However, since we had our daughter, that's changed.

Now, we go to Epcot on arrival day. Why? Shopping at MouseGear at day's end! ("Dad-o is too excited to say 'No.'")

So, first ride is Spaceship Earth.

Last ride: We always finish a trip at Epcot. Why? Shopping at MouseGear at day's end! ("Dad-o is too sad to say 'No!'") So last ride is usually Maelstrom or El Rio del Tiempo. Stay until Illuminations: Reflections of Earth.

[cjdami]

MK-HM
Epcot-TT
HS-TSMM
AK-EE

As for the last ride HM cause I never know when we will be back again!!

And Illuminations is usually the last show!!!
