unfortunately i don't have a next trip planned yet cuz i recently returned from my latest trip but i'll share the new things i did during that trip...
-1900 park fare for breakfast (food was good, service was um how shall i put it WEIRD, and the characters were lacking especially the mad hatter)
-garden grill (AMAZING!!!!! A MUST DO FROM NOW ON)
-7DMT (highly disappointing for all the hype)
-queen of hearts cake cup (good but maybe too much of a good thing cuz i couldn't finish it)
-first time my niece brought a friend (they're 15 and it was nice cuz my sister and i could partner up)

Everything!!!
This is our first time and I am fully planning on taking advantage of the BB at the end of our trip to plan next year.
I have 4 kids and they've never been. The oldest is 10, youngest is 4 and we kept pushing the trip off until EVERYONE was done napping and out of diapers ...and here we are!
There are so many things we won't get to do this time around so planning another trip will allow me to be more relaxed about not cramming everything in this trip!

This year:
CRT
Pirates and Pals
CP, CM, 1900, GG, Sci Fi, MM, TH
Fantasmic!
Pirate Voyage out of GF
A&E
7DMT...

Next year:
BOG
MNSSHP
MSEP
Illuminations
Pirates League
some World Showcase

Just finished watching Saving Mr. Banks and.... Returning here, I'm floored! I never started a thread before that went to 4 PAGES! Told dd that I'm in the "popular crowd" now. There will be no living with me.
I am so thrilled to read everyone's firsts! I am seeing so many that I hope will be first for us on later visits. Looking at how many posters have been to "the world" several or many times and yet, still have a long list of firsts posted proves what I've always said.... It's never the same trip! Non wdw people often ask why we keep returning. Well, this is why. There is SO much to do and see! So many new things to add to our old favorites!

"Not seeing a ghost town across from POP! LOL! I know what you mean! LOL! We were at Pop when they were building AOA and I think we looked across the lake as much as we looked at anything at Disney! We stayed at AOA last yr 2013. It is much nicer and fun to see even if you don't stay at AOA.

Just yesterday I "uncovered" 2 things that, for me were, "hidden" and hopefully will turn out to b hidden gems at AK: seating along the river, behind Flametree, that offers lovely views of the water with EE in the backdrop. And Anandapur Tea Co. New to me! Looking fwd to trying one of their iced teas!
