    Default First Disney Ride ever ridden

    I have been seeing a lot of topics dealing with favorites and such. If you can remember, what was your first Disney ride, and did you like it?

    My first trip to Disney World happened when I was 30 (late bloomer) My wife took me there for our honeymoon. The first ride I rode was The Haunted Mansion, and to this day it is still my favorite ride, and the first ride I ride when we get to the parks
    I am addicted!

    Don't remember, but I was 3 and I'm told it was the Disneyland Railroad.

    If we're talking WDW, it was Spaceship Earth.

    Interesting you would ask...mine was also Haunted Mansion. I was in Disney with my husband who had gone lots of times. I didn't get it the first time - had expected a thrill ride -- lots of experience with Six Flags, Busch Gardens,etc. I got it the second time when I learned that Disney was all about the details.

    I don't know the answer to that, as I was only 9 months old.

    First ride I have a VIVID memory of: World of Motion. I have no idea how old I was. Probably 3 or 4.

    I was 16 for my first WDW trip and I went with my brother and his friend. I think my first ride was either space mountian or carosel of progress. COP is still a favorite of mine. I like SM but my body is not fond of it anymore makes me ache when I get off.

    Talking

    The first Disney ride I had ever rudder was It's A Small World at the World's Fair. I was only 3.

    My first ride in a Disney Park was when I was 15: Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland. I thought, "it can't get much better than this!". I was blown away.

    Went to WDW the following year for one day. It rained. Rode POTC and the Haunted Mansion. Did not return until I was 39. Now, it's a tradition.

    Still, there's nothing like the first time you ride Disneyland's Pirates!!!! Nothing.

    Carousel of Progress at the New York World's Fair. I also saw Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, the Ford Ride, and it's a small world. That is what started my lifelong love of Disney!
