gusgus · 10-06-2005, 01:49 PM

I was 4 years old when i went for my first time, but don't remember much. As i got older i would begg my parents to take me every year, and now i can't get enough of it. and still try to go at least once a year since i live in Sacramento. I'm going in November and can't wait

I was probably about 2. My mom and dad have a great picture of me standing at the hotel balcony looking at the Matterhorn!

I first went when I was 1 years old...

I was in the womb still and didn't have a view. That sucked. I got to go to DL and didn't get to look around. J/K. I was in the womb though.

I was 6 or 7 months old, no memories, only photos. Regarding Executioners comment....."There would have been a real problem if you had a womb with a view !
cheers,

My first time was my 5th birthday!

My earliest memory of the park is seeing "35 years of magic" on stuff like cups & napkins. Guess that'd put it about 1990 or so, so I'd be about 6.

17 but my first Disney experience was at WDW when I was 10!!!

When I was 2, my Mom died of cancer. My Dad took me and my older brother to Disneyland soon after, to try and help us through it. He drove from Mississippi to California..I remember that drive. Ya know, I was young when Mom died, and I just remember everybody around me being sooo sad. I really didn't understand what was happening. I DO remember the first time we stepped into the gate, Dopey was standing there and I was soooo happy and excited. I had my picture taken with him. Disneyland was a great place for all 3 of us to go, if for a brief moment we forgot our sadness and enjoyed the magic!!!
