Age at your first trip

[pacochran]

I was 39 on my first trip to Disney in 2002, wish I had gone sooner.

DisneyLand - I was one in 1968, 69, and 70. We stayed in a pop-up camper in an orange grove. You used to get a pole device with a net on the end to pick oranges for breakfast. We returned in 2002 and stayed in the same campground which is still there (with a few orange trees left) the rest is a city, lol...

WDW - 5 years old in 1972 and too many times to list since. That first trip we stayed in Fort Wilderness and had graduated up to an Airstream trailer. Good times...

WDW - I was almost 4 years old in 1976! It was love at first sight!!!

 

[Joy Peace]

Let's see my first time to WDW was somewhere between 1979 and 1982. I think I was about 10 or so. Visiting the park with my cousin and aunt and uncle. The only parks were MK and Epcot. This was way before DHS, and AK It makes me feel so old!!

I can't remember my first trip. I used to live in Tampa from when I was 1 to like 5 so I was too young to remember.

In July 1976, I just turned nine. All seven of us stayed in an RV at Fort Wildnerness for five nights. MK was all decorated for the Bicentennial. I believe the only resorts were the Contemporary and the Polynesian. I remember visiting the Polynesian and seeing the waterfall in the lobby. Being DVC members, we were actually able to swim there last year. What a great trip!



That's my little princess. She was six when the photo was taken.

My first trip was in early 1994, when I was four years old. I can still remember seeing the castle for the first time.

My first trip was to Disneyland in October of 1978, I was 7 years old. (I rode Space Mountain 4 times in a row with my dad and immediately became hooked on roller coasters!)

My first trip to Disney World was in March 1984, I was 13.

Went to Disney World again in March of 1990 (my wonderful parents took us and I was an ungreatful snob because I was in college and shouldn't have to listen to my parents - yeah, I go over that pretty fast. Also, I now thank my parents all the time for that vacation. We are to the point where we can laugh about it, thank goodness!)

Disneyland in December 1993 for the Rose Bowl.

I had a Disney "rebirth" of sorts in October 1997 when I went for the first time on my own dime and with my husband. That is when I truly became addicted. Since then, we've gone in 2000, 2001, 2003 (first time with our FANTASTIC children), 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and going again this coming October!!!!!

I was less than a year old when I went in 1971.

I think I was destined to be a Disney Lover.

 

[eliezrah]

I went for the first time when I was 5 years old way back in 1979.

I still remember it pretty vividly. I loved Doanld Duck, and we did not see him anywhere in the parks. My parents said that he was sick. Me being 5, thought nothing of it.

I also remember my Dad telling me that the ghost at the end of the Haunted Mansion Ride that appears to be in your car (the short one with the beard) was going home with us. Scared the ________ out of me for months. :lol:

I think you're still scared! LOL

I was probably anywhere between 2-5 when I first went. I'm thinking closer to 2 or 3 since I don't remember it but I've seen the pics. Raggedy Anne was there and my parents have a pic of my mom holding me in between her and RA and I was hysterical crying since I was terrified! After that I didn't go back until college.

 

[princess17]

I was 22 for my first trip. DH was 6 and DD was 3.

 

[Kath-n-me]

I was 7 years old in December of 1971. Been hooked ever since.
My Dad drove us there in probably 1969 or 1970, to show us where it was going to be. I was amazed then & still am.:sohappy:
