OK, Main street is not an option, since just about everyone goes there first. After Main Street, where do you head?

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

I have little ones so there first choice is always FantasyLand. When they get older I suppose that we will hit FrontierLand first.

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

I try to avoid FL until after all the little tykes have left for their naps, unless it's EMH, then I get it out of the way first.

If I had my druthers, I'd go to AdventureLand first, but it's not open until 10 and Frontierland wasn't open until 11 when we were there.. so Tomorrowland is #1 by process of elimination. LT Square is better later in the day because everything is inside (HOP, HM, shops). I haven't been to TS's Island in years. Maybe we'll go there in December? (God I hope we can do that trip!)

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

Since our favorite ride at both DL and WDW has always been Pirates, we start off our day with Pirates and end our day with Pirates. As a matter of fact, it's the very first ride we go on to start our vacation and the last ride we go on to end our vacation!!!

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

It's funny how things change as the years go by. When my kids were little we'd head straight for Fantasyland. Then as they got older we always had to do Splash Moutain and BTM first thing, so we headed to Frontierland. These last few times we've gravitated to Tomorrowland, usually starting with Buzz Lightyear.

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

The boys do Space Mountain first and then Buzz Lightyear as many times as we can before the crowds get there. While the guys do SM I do the TTA, it is still my favorite in TL.

We usually take a spin around the park first on the Disney Railroad, to sort-of acclimate ourselves, and also to get an idea of what may have changed since our last visit.

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

In Oct. '03, we headed to Tomorrowland first so lil brer could go on Alien Encounter (soon to be Stitch's Great Escape). This year it'll be the Railroad since we are doing the railroad tour (for lil brer and her DGF) early in the morning and then probably FL for a stop at Mickey's Philharmagic before we head for lunch at the castle.
I can't really remember where I headed most years when I was younger and let loose in the MK, but I feel safe in saying that I really didn't have a plan, I headed in a different direction every time, and that was before EMH's and certain sections opening at different hours. When I was little when the park opened all of it was opened and you were free to run for any section you wanted, and by golly I did with my parents on my heels.

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

Funny, we are headed to Disney tomorrow a.m. and haven't even thought about it BTR was closed when we were there in October so guess we are headed there first...assuming it opens early. I didn't realize the different sections opened at different times!

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

We usually head to Fantasyland and ride Dumbo first since that's always our longest line... and not fun to stand in later in the heat of the afternoon!

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

It really depends on our moods and who I am with. Tomorrowland usually is the target. Sometimes we'll go on the railroad just to see the park again. We rarely go to the left so frontierland and adventureland are towards the end of trip 1 around the park!

Re: When going to the Magic Kingdom, where do you go first?

I laways head straight for Fantasyland to get those attractions done first. That being the central hub more or less, it gets kinda crowded later on in the late morning early afternoon.
