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.

[MagicMike]

1987 - 5 yrs old - Magic Kingdom, specifically Adventureland - Pirates Of The Caribbean (Non-PC Version)

I know it doesn't garner much Disney "street cred" to pick a ride that has not since been removed (Bring back Journey Into Imagination!) but as soon as I crossed that bridge into Adventureland and laid eyes on that ominous Spanish fort, I was hooked (No Pun Intended). I have loved everything about that ride ever since.
