I went with DB's and DS's in 1983 at the tender age of 19. I have no recollection of that trip at all except for the drive and stopping at South of the Border in SC. We went to the Magic Kingdom and I have a ton of pictures of siblings but none of me. I still don't remember it even looking at them!
Our first trip EVER to WDW was a land and sea vacation that we LOVED in May of this year Yep - I was 33 and had NEVER been - oh the shame! My daughter however will not suffer that fate - she was 4 on this trip and we are planning it all over again for the same time in 2005, and then 2006, you get the picture.
These photos are great! Mine are all at my parents' house. I'm sure we have some from my first trip in 1986. I also found some from my parents' first trip (early 70's) that were fascinating. I think you can see the Swan Boats working in the background of one of them.
We have a ton from our second family trip... If only I weren't halfway across the country from them...
This was in Disneyland the year my dad and mom got divorced. My mom said she was taking us on a good vacation because it would probably never happen again. Aren't moms smart people? I didn't go to WDW until 1999.
This is from our first trip to WDW in 1997 (before we had DD, who's now 5 and is visiting WDW for her 4th time in November!). We went with friends who felt they were "experts," and paid rack rate through their TA (obviously not a Disney Specialist). Nevertheless, we had a great time, and fell in love with WDW.
A bit off-topic, but as I type this, I'm listening to the songs and music from "Wishes" on Live365 (Sorcerer Disney Radio station) and I'm grinning from ear to ear! A big "Thank you" to the Poster who alerted many of us to this site in a previous post!
I am sure my Mom has a picture of me from my first trip buried in her house somewhere........but, here's a picture of my son HIS first time at WDW..............
I have some from my first trip in 1982, but Imagestation is down...this is a fun thread. I love how the changing fashions are contrasted against the (somewhat) constancy of Disney.
Here we go, everything is working again. My first trip was in 1982, over Christmas Break.
This is one of my little sister and myself with Pooh, sorry that it is sideways. Cool knee-socks, huh?
This shot of my family seems to be at Hoop-Dee-Doo Review, although I've never been as an adult and don't remember:
This is my sister and myself at EPCOT:
These shots are of my stepsons' first trip in the summer of 1999. The other pirate is their cousin.
