    We do not have a favorite side, but we do try to catch the ride in Mexico when it is not as crowded.

    Honestly, I like the beer better on that side, so I start there!

    I prefer to start with my favorite pavilion, Mexico, and I think that side has a slight edge over all.

    Interestingly enough there have been studies that people (Americans?) naturally go to the left when they enter most stores and I imagine that the same idea would apply to Mexico vs. Canada.

    Ever since I read that study I try to make a point of going to the right.

    Funnily enough we always head to Mexico first as well I think it's probably psychological but Mexico feels like less of a walk than turning right to get to Canada - silly really as we always do a full circuit anyway!

    I start in Mexico so I can ride the ride and then get a margarita to sip on while I wander around.

    Canada side . . . . .and NOT because I'm Canadian, although it's not a bad reason!

    It's because it's closer to the France Crepe Cart and the Creme Brulee!!

    During the Christmas season, I start at Canada because Santa is waiting on the stairs there! Any other time of the year, I start in Mexico.

    France! We never enter the World Showcase from the "front", we always go in through the International Gateway and head (right) toward France.

    Mexico. No particular reason. Just how I like it.

    Now on the topic of Tommorowland or Adventureland- Adventureland. Why would I start in the future? It's just wrong,lol.

    Mexico. We like the ride. As a matter of fact, for the last few years with small children we had not made it past America for one reason or another. Last summer we made it all the way around! Felt like an accomplishment.

    Majority of the time we start in Mexico. Could be a subliminal thing since La Cava Del Tequila seems to call out to me.
