Magic Kingdom: First-The Jungle Cruise- Because it is the first ride in the circut we travel through. It is also because we get it out of the way to avoid lines because we usually only ride once
Last- TTA- Because the line is short and TL is pretty at night.
Epcot: First- Either Mission Space, Test Track or Soarin' to avoid lines
Last- Traditionally it has been SSE, but the last time it was Maelstrom because we had fast passes and it was the last one we could do before dinner and Illuminations.

MK- I don't think we have a real preference on a 1st ride, i'm guessing its usually pirates or something on that side of the park because thats the first way we head... last ride is ALWAYS haunted mansion... out last night of our last vacation we did splash mountain (during wishes) and haunted mansion over and over... rode HM a few in a row without getting off...
Epcot- no preference on 1st again, but last is JII... i love figment despite him not being what he used to be...
HS- TOT seems to be my fiance's 1st . I have only gone on it once as I'm not into the more action packed things in life... i'm usually found in the gift shop :wave:... no specific lasts there...
AK- 1st is kilaminjaro safari... last- KS or Countdown to extinction

The way we handle the parks is a little different; usually we'll walk around, check out the newest changes, and eat lunch or snacks when we get to the park in the afternoon, and save the rides for the evening and EMH when the crowds have died down.
Magic Kingdom
First attraction is usually something in the Frontierland or Liberty Square area. As of late, it seems to be Country Bear Jamboree more often than not. It's a good way to unwind and get in the cheery mindset for the day ahead.
Last ride is usually either Pirates or Mansion. Pirates really leaves the best taste in your mouth, and riding Mansion after midnight, when you've got the stretching room pretty much just to yourself, is INCREDIBLE. So either one, really.
Epcot
First, we usually walk past the Fountain of Nations, wait for and watch a fountain show, and then walk around World Showcase touring the pavilions. This could take us hours.
Last, we'll usually soak in the serenity of a near-empty Seabase Alpha, and end on Spaceship Earth on our way out of the park. It's sort of Epcot's "kiss goodnight" - SSE can really make you feel optimistic and cheery about the future.
DHS
We don't usually spend a lot of time in DHS. It seems like we'll start off with a show, and end with something like Star Tours or Great Movie Ride. More often than not, though, we like to stroll down Hollywood or Sunset Blvds., admiring the neon and doing some last minute shopping.
Animal Kingdom
First is usually Kilimanjaro Safaris, when the animals are most active. As for last, I really don't think we have a set tradition here. Might have to change that.
Hmm, writing this makes me realize we're really relaxed park-goers...

MK is the first and last park we hit, and we always ride Small World, Haunted Mansion, then Pirates. For the last we ride Peter Pan and Small World.
Epcot is get a Soarin' fast pass and ride The Land, Nemo, and SSE. SSE is usually last because we can walk on seconds before the park closes.
HS first and last is Toy Story Mania

MK first and last full days at the parks. First ride first day is Splash Mountain, last ride last day is the TTA.
Epcot: First is Soarin', last is whatever I feel like.
DHS: First is TSMM, last is whatever I feel like.
Animal Kingdom: First is Expedition Everest, last is whatever I feel like.

We always start the day by turning left at the hub, entering Adventureland and getting on the Jungle Cruise. Then we work our way clockwise around the park (we take detours and backtrack - my Disney Commando days are over). The last ride at night is almost always Space Mountain.

MK-- first ride is almost always Pirates of the Caribbean or Haunted Mansion "tradition" which ever has the shortest line. Last ride "same as above" Kids last ride--they must ride BTM & Splash M while it's dark.
HS-- first ride is always TOT and last is always TOT....we are usually the very very last people on the ride and have the elevator all to ourselves which is great!
Epcot-- first ride SE most times and last ride is always test track.
AK-- first ride just depends Safari or Kali and last ride Everest over & over.
also I try to make it to MK the begining & ending of a trip.

Small World is traditionally the first one I've gone on. The last one? None specifically but to tell you the truth I have never, ever gone on the Jungle Cruise at any other time but nighttime. I have no idea why, it just ends up that way

I always begin and end my trips in Epcot...I end with something different, but SSE is always the first ride. Something about Epcot and that ride the first day really puts me in the right frame of mind to enjoy the rest of the trip.
What is the First and if you have a last, ride you go on at Disney World at each park? Say why if you can
Magic Kingdom
Pirates for some reason. Its something we have loved forever.
Epcot
Soarin because its the best ride there!!!
Hollywood studios
Rock n Rollercoaster or Toy story!
Animal Kingdom
Either Safari or Everest, because most animals comes out in morning and everest is awesome!:sohappy::sohappy::sohappy::sohappy::sohappy:
We usually do a show last
MK---We always do POTC first after we get a fastpass for Space Mountain, usually grab a Dole Whip on the walk back to Space Mountain
Epcot---Soarin
DHS---Grab a fastpass for Toy Story or Aerosmith first and hit GMR or Star Tours
AK---Fastpass for Everest and hit the Safari
