I was 50 and the year was 1997. I took my visiting DGD's ages then 5 & almost 3. They were visiting from Germany and did not speak English. But they sure knew the Disney characters.
My parents took me the summer after it first opened. I was in high school and I am now 49 so I was, hmmmm, you do the figuring. I think I was either 15 or 16.
I went to Disney World when I was 3 years old in 1982. I don't remember anything about that trip, but my mom said I loved riding Dumbo and I insisted on getting some Mickey ears to wear before we left. The first trip I can remember is when we went when I was 8.
Well I have a picture of my brother and I on the Monorail at Disneyland from 1968 (I was 5) but I know my first trip was a year or two before that..
Now WDW...... hmmmmmmm maybe 1990...... for sure 1993, but I think I went a couple of years before that, just for a day or two, off site. 1993 I stayed onsite at DixieLandings!
