Long standing tradition:
We always ride Space Mountain first.
Recent Developments: We always get McDonalds fries while standing in line for Haunted Mansion. We always have to take a turkey leg picture and a churro picture.

A popular one for most here.... head to MK and we always start in Adventureland with..... a Dole Whip. And then on to JC.

A newer one that my father and I picked up when we're there together is a quick round of mini golf at Fantasia Gardens, loser buys a beer at ESPN while we keep up with the Sox.

1. Our family has a tradition to take a family picture in Epcot on a certain bench. Of course the bench must not be the same after 18 years (before I was even born), but there is still a bench in that area.

2. We eat a meal at Chef Mickey and by the picture that they take. We put a magnet on the fridge and we watch how my mom, dad, brother, and I have changed over the years.

3. We eat dinner at Prime Time Cafe and use the same waiter every time. The waiter and us have actually become friends.

4. Finally, we will eat a dinner outside of Disney every year at this amazing chinese restaurant. It is called Ming Court and is located on International Drive. About 10 -15 minutes off of Disney property.

Our traditions are:

Magic Kingdom first and last.
My daughter has a route through MK: Samll World, Peter Pan, Snow White, Winnie the Pooh then Carousel of Progress (or the big beautiful tomorrow as she named it at 2 years).
Then off to Pirates to have a sword fight on the way out. We always do the Parks in the same order Day 1 MK, Day 2 DHS, Day 3 EPCOT, Day 4 AK, Day 5 TL or BB then after that its a mish mash until day 15 when we come home. MK all morning then off to the airport for our very long flight home. :cry:

My tradition is that we usually go to the left towards Adventureland, New Orleans Square, Frontierland and Critter Country then we either walk or take the train towards Tomorrowland and do some bits of Fantasyland. We'll be going next week so I want to see what we plan on doing that day.

My family has started discussing what our traditions need to be. My daughter spouts dole whips and birch beer while my wife and daughters want Tepan Edo to be the first place to eat everytime. looks like traditions are a hard thing to break..laugh

Several for me: riding the monorail, regardless of need.... spending time in the Contemporary, again regardless of any shopping need..... seeing spectromagic....checking out downtown Disney Store.
