Since I only went to DL for the first time last fall I thought I would ask...

Was there anything you were surprised to find out when you went for the first time?

Me, for example, thought Sleeping Beauty's castle would be MUCH bigger.

I am trying to think back 17 months to our first visit. The only thing I remember being surprised at was the honesty of of the general public. I suppose I am becoming quite the cynic in my older age, but really, I was pleasantly surprised at how honest people seemed to be. Example: I lost the little book I had that had all of our tickets (admission, character meals, etc) in and when I was working with the people at customer service a little boy was there reporting that he had lost a bag full of change and money, about $150 worth. Anyway, happily my item and this little boys money were returned fully intact within moments of being lost. It really is the happiest place on earth

the first time I went to DL was in 2004. I had been to WDW in Florida a few times...but not since 1995 (I was 14 years old then.) I suppose I also thought the castle would be a bit bigger like the castle in Florida. Disneyland was also smaller with less grass than I thought it would have...haha. I always remembers all the open grassy areas at WDW so I found it odd that there weren't many at DL.
