My first time visiting WDW was in 2011 at Hollywood Studios and I have yet to come back since then to Hollywood Studios. But, I hope this year I can come back after 10 years and ride all the new rides there

My first visit in 1988 to WDW was to the Magic Kingdom with my parents and little sister. I was 8 years old on that first visit and fell in love with the parks. Our family wasn't wealthy, but my parents saved all year to drive us from Massachusetts to Orlando, where we stayed in an Econolodge and visited the parks for a few days before driving down to Hobe sound to stay with my grandparents to visit for a couple of weeks. We made this trip 13 times and they are still some of the most fond memories of my childhood!

Honeymoon 2003. Loved it and now go weekly.

My first and only visit was summer of 2016.
I so want to go back!

1985... I'd been jealous growing up of friends in school going there (from Massachusetts) all through the mid to late 70s, finally took myself and a couple of friends there when I Was 22. Then stating in '87 my first wife & I bought a timeshare a mile up the road in Kissimmee that I owned until about three years ago... went almost very year (and sometimes twice) from '87 thru the mid-aughts. (Is that right, an "aught" LOL?) Now go every other year or so.

Saw your pic and now I can't get that parade song out of my head.
Great memories.

1988! I went with my parents while my one-year-old brother stayed behind. And I still have the guide map from that time.

First trip was in 1989. I remember it was the summer before my freshman year in high school. I can still remember the "Mickey's Birthday Land Express" song on the train..............

The first time U went was before my husband and I got married...probably 2001 or 2002. But I don't really count that b/c we were only at MK for a day and I didn't appreciate how wonderful it really is. I consider my first time to be when we went with our kids in 2017! It was the best vacation ever! And with the exception of last year (thanks Covid) we've been every year since!

1974...when I was 4 years old!

1974 with my parents and grandparents......

April 1972 on our honeymoon... it was only Magic Kingdom then!

Sometime around 1996. I was old enough to (vaguely) remember riding Horizons!

November 2015 for my Disneymoon and we were meant to go back in Aug 2020.

Let's hope this year though!

I actually grew up going to Disneyland. I didn't visit Disney World until Halloween 2019. Been several times since. My heart will always lie with Disneyland, but I have a huge soft spot for Animal Kingdom. I'd never have to take sleeping pills again if I could sleep in Pandora.

We first visited Disney World in 1973! Our son was 4 years old. We’ve been back over 100 times since!! Forever in our hearts!! Going in April again can’t wait!!! Never gets old!!! Makes you feel young!!

1979 back when it was just Magic Kingdom out in the middle of orange groves

I think it was around December of 1974 with my parents and brother. We were on a family vacation. My father thinks he saw John Lennon and Yoko Ono on the Jungle Cruise. He took a picture of them and it was converted to a slide. It shows them from behind so who knows. I don’t know if they know where the slide is anymore.

Not until 2016, but luckily I managed to catch the last year of Wishes and the old Magic Kingdom welcome show.

Our first visit was 1992, it didn’t cure us, of course not silly me. It’s made me a fanatical addict and I think it’s the best thing to be addicted to. I remember the 25th anniversary castle, funny how back then, without forums and YT being prolific, I didn’t ‘get it’ whereas now I’m the complete opposite.

We first visited on 12th April 2011. Our oldest son was 6, and our youngest son was 8 months old. Here is a photo on the aeroplane from UK.

We stayed in a Condo at Windsor Hills Resort.

First year I went was 1993

My first visit was the year before our family moved to Florida which was 1976 during the bicentennial celebration.

1982! We drove from NY to FL and my parents took me to MK one day and then Epcot another. I remember loving it then, never imagined how much WDW would be in my life as an adult
