Wishes, of course! I don't know how I could bear going to WDW and not seeing Wishes AT LEAST once!
We also must do Big Thunder Mountain, Soarin', and Toy Story Mania! Those are our favorites.
Most recently we have also fallen in love with the Sunshine Seasons food court in Epcot, and that is one place we simply must go. That and Peco's Bills!
Gosh there are just too many....why don't we just say everything?? Haha, I wish I had time to do everything. A better question would be, what are you willing to skip that you wish you didn't have to?

Get food at Pecos Bills, Cosmic Rays, Casey's, Electric Umbrella, Backlot Express, Sci Fi Dine In for a Burger or a Hot Dog.
Sit in the Empty hallway at Innoventions West with my Waffle cone and listen to my favorite loop on end.

Must do's.... everything...
Have a Mickey Mouse Ice Cream sandwhich.
Dinner at Ohana's
Ride the monorail
Get our picture in front of Cinderella's Castle and at least visit the Candy Store on Main Street.
Hunt for new pressed pennies!
Ride Splash Moutain, Space Mountain (I love the queue), Haunted Mansion, Peter Pan, Buzz Lightyear, Pirates and Jungle Cruise are all must do's (imo)!
At Epcot we must get a picture in front of Spaceship Earth, we must also ride at Norway, see Figment and spend some quality time at The Living Seas! Illuminations is a must.
AK, Harambe, Killamanjaro Safaris, Expedition Everest and It's Tough to be a Bug are all worked in around lunch of Ribs at Flame Tree.
DHS RNR, TOT, the Great Movie Ride are musts.... better add TSM into that mix too! A good walk up and down the Main Blvd is also a must!
Of course much of this will be subject to change as we make our plans to travel with our 4 children all under the age of 6 in about 2 years!
Adventurers' Club, used to be a must.... *sob*...

Go to Kissimmee and play mini-golf at Pirates Island and go to the Walmart next door. These must do's are carry overs from our off property days.
Ride the monorail
Eat a table service meal at whatever resort we are staying at
Visit Fort Wilderness
Go to Beaches and Cream
Have at least one table service meal for each day of the stay, including at least one (probably more) MK, DHS and Epcot.
Eating supper at other resorts
Dole Whips
Pressed pennies
Take a picture of our room number and door. I do that anytime we stay at a hotel, not just Disney. But I like to remember what room we stayed in for some reason.

Have to buy at least one pin to commemorate the trip
Have a bowl of potato and leek soup from the Rose & Crown
Chocolate from Italy.
Spend some time on the Boardwalk (or the ESPN club if there's a hockey game that night
)
Ride the people mover, Carousel Of Progress, Philharmagic, and Spaceship Earth.
See the Finding Nemo Musical.
And of course make sure I get most of my "To Take List" done, which is all the photos I want to capture that week!
