I'm curious about this, as many Disney "purist" like to point out how things were better overall in the early days of WDW (I agree by the way) I'm wondering how much your first experiences/age define how you rate the parks and attractions.

What year did you first visit WDW?

How old were you?

What is your favorite park?

What is your favorite attraction past or present?

What is your favorite park?
Magic Kingdom


What is your favorite attraction past or present?
Tower of Terror

My preference regarding The Magic Kingdom centers on the fact that it personifies a more "classic" Disney, if that makes any sense. EPCOT comes in as a close second because I have an enormous amount of family memories tied to that park.

First trip was in 1992.. I was 6 years old.. My favorite ride was World of Motion, I miss that ride! But at least they replaced it with another favorite, unlike Mission Space replacing Horizons. My favorite park was MK.
