And what you thought of it. I first visited Disney over 40 years ago and can still remember my first visit. We went to the Magic Kingdom and I still remember the excitement in the car as we drove through Disney property with the radio tuned into the Disney channel advising visitors of that days goings on etc. After parking I remember getting the tram to the TTC before catching the monorail and marveling at actually travelling through the lobby of a hotel.
We walked up Main Street being blown away by the castle and various sights and smells and my dad decided we'd turn right into Tomorrowland (interestingly I've nearly always done this on most of my visits since). He decided as head of the family that we'd visit 'Circle-Vision 360°' first as that was pretty much the first thing we came to and I've got to admit I was a tad disappointed initially. There was nothing wrong with watching 'America the Beautiful' however as a kid there were many more exciting things to see in a theme park than a film whilst stood up even if I'd never seen anything like it before.
After seeing that we crossed over to Mission to Mars and that's when I discovered the absolute joy of Disney attractions. The audio animatronics in the pre-show area were breathtaking to me as a child and the effects of the seat moving as you took off in the attraction seemed the best thing ever! I was hooked straight away and as the day proceeded things just got better and better.
So looking back my first attraction visited was a bit of a let down if I'm honest, but that was very short lived and I put it down to having little desire to watch a film about America instead of riding rides and my lack of patience. So what's everyone else's first attraction and what did you think of it?
Edit: Well that's stupid of me, meant to post it in the general discussion forum. Apologies and please move mods
