"Mommy, Does Disney have a potty?"
We had threatened our son with no Disney unless he was potty-trained...needless to say, it was an empty-threat. After spending a few hours in the MK, I had just turned to my DH and said I needed to find a restroom to check our son's Huggie...there was a tug at my shorts and the above words from our DS...from that point on, he was trained...:D

There are lots I don't think I can choose, lots of times as a kid with my family, being there on my honeymoon, walking through nearly empty parks during a tropical storm...can't really pick a top one.
it is a difficult choice...that is why I thought it made a good question...also makes you think and remember

I've had so many great Disney memories that I'm with the above poster...I don't know if I can choose just one. My high school band went there my freshman year so getting to explore the park with all my friends was a lot of fun but my favorite memory was probably when my whole family (25 aunts, uncles, cousins, brother and parents), went to Disney for my grandparents 50th anniversary. It was the first Disney trip for the majority of them and at one point, my cousin (whose immediate family had never even been able to take a vacation) turned to my grandparents on the way back to the hotel and just said "this has been the best day of my life".

You were far more fortunate than we were...let's just say there was a pool incident with my brother, me at 12, a couple of girls who were watching us (family friends) but not getting paid...

Guess who ended up cleaning up the mess.

Wow the very best would be the first time I took my two boys. They were 3 and 5 and we went into the Character Spot in Epcot and the youngest started to freak out in line. He did not want to see Mickey, he was scared. We told him he did not have to go to him but his brother did so we were staying. He finally stopped crying but said he was staying with us and not going up to him. We got to the front, I took a deep breath and Mickey got down on one knee and off he ran straight into his arms. I was so thankful for the photographer there because I never got photos I just watched with tears in my eyes! My favorite and Magical Moment! :D

I have many, many great Disney memories but I have a photo on my bedroom wall which is very special. Before they added the second bridge/walkway from Liberty Square to the walkway to Adventureland, there was a planter/bench with the Adventureland sign. My entire family posed for a photo there and one of my friends took the photo....it would be the last photo we ever took together. That photo, and that trip, holds many great memories.

My favorite moment was 2010 Christmas Disney vacation with my 2 DD's. Crazy busy , tentions was high but it was great for their first time there. They was only 4 & 1 but it was great. The trips in 2011 & 2012 was great also they are older now , it just gets better with every trip. We leave Aug 3rd 2013 for our next trip, getting excited

Several highlights at WDW -

Being in the MK day parade ( as a Guest )

EPCOTs 25th Anniversary fan event. I had a little to do with that taking place....

Meeting the original Dreamfinder Ron Scheider at the MK one day and spending a very interesting afternoon with him and a couple of other Disney cohorts.

Since I have been going to WDW since I was 2, it seems like most of my best memories come from my DIsney trips. Most recently though, now that I have kids, one of my favorite memories is when my youngest DD was 2 1/2 on her first trip to WDW. Her favorite princess was Jasmine and we ate at Akershus so she could meet her. Jasmine made a huge fuss over my DD, even giving her a big kiss on the cheek (the lipstick imprint stayed on her cheek). Later in the day, we met Aladdin and Jasmine in Morocco. It was the same CM from breakfast. She remembered my DD by name, made another big fuss over her, and gave her another kiss on the cheek since the first imprint had worn away. My DD looked like she had won the lottery. The DIsney photographer got a shot of the second kiss and my DD's face is priceless. I keep the photo on my fridge and whenever I look at it, I always remember how magical Disney is through the eyes of a child.

Too many to mention but I would say some of the best center around our very first family trip to WDW. From surprising them with the trip to entering the Magic Kingdom together the first time and looking out on MSUSA and the castle, followed by our first character meal at CP. Standing and watching snow fall on MSUSA at MVMCP was special and I always enjoy holding my wife close and watching Wishes together with the kids.

The last time I went when I was 17 - driving from the airport to our hotel. I was in my favourite place in the world with all of it to look forward to. Then being at MGM the following morning next to the Indiana Jones entrance, and just soaking it up.

On my 8th birthday I had breakfast at Hollywood and Vine and the whole retaurant sung happy birthday to me as I stood on my chair.

Also my dad screaming his lungs out Homer Simpson style just after getting in the Space Mountain vehicle and carrying on as we coasted past the onlooking queue. A couple of people screamed back to their credit but most people just stared at him like he was some sort of nutcase. It was hilarious.

Left engagement ring with management at King Stefan's early in the morning. Took girlfriend there for dinner. Cinderella walked out with the waiter carrying a dessert tray. On the dessert tray was a glass slipper...in the slipper was the ring. I got down on a knee and said, "you're my best friend and i love you..will you marry me." She kissed me and cried. That was a great moment. Still married after 16 years, and she's still my best friend.

It does save time if DD's take them, but this was one time that I didn't mind finding the Ladies' Room and waiting (which we didn't have to wait...everyone kindly let us go ahead of them)...I was so happy that he was trained!

Hard to top that. If I had to pick mine it would have to be my first trip when I was 13. It was my first time flying, and when we got to the airport in Orlando, by dad had arranged a limo to pick us up. We stayed at Gaylord Palms offsite, and it was probably the most magical experience with all of that and my first time at Disney World. This will be topped though because it will be my wife and kid's first time in January so I cant wait to see their faces when they take it all in.
