I was 9 when I first went to Disney and honestly I don't remember what my reaction to it was. However, I will never forget my kid's reactions when they first went (they were 4 and 2 at the time, they are 12 and 10 now). My oldest DD was trying to jump out of her stroller just so she can run to it, and of course her younger sister liked to imitate her older sister

...BTW, we let them out of their strollers and they did indeed run up to it saying "It's Cindy's Castle, it's Cindy's Castle"

. What is the earliest memory you have going to WDW?
