considering the wait times for all of the attractions listed, I'm really shocked. I understand that most people on this site are people obsessed with CLASSIC Disney so things like Haunted Mansion are huge. But only 1 person put BTM and me on Space? I think the odds are against that. I mean I love Haunted Mansion, TTA, Carousel of Progress. But If I am going to the Kingdom to just wander around by myself. I have got to see Space Mountain.

TTA, Haunted Mansion, and Carousel I like to show to other people. Thunder is fine if the line is short or you have a fastpass, cause that queue is WAY too hot. Splash is not really a good idea when its cold out, or even a nice temp, cause the water makes 70 feel cold.

Space Mountain really gets me every time. It is the only ride I would wait an hour for. The trumpet solo of the Speed Tunnel as you enter, The calming star tunnel, and the quiet darkness that leads you to the load area. You really lose where you are. The flying chocolate chip cookies and stars as the TTA rides by. Boarding the rockets and then climbing the lift with the upside-down space man. Launching into the abyss. Rolling along the exit ramp past all the ex-Fed-Ex post show. I listen to the Star Tunnel and Speed ramp anytime I need to feel creative.

Considering the wait time for Space is longer than most other waits in the park....there has got to be someone out there that agrees with me

You also have to realize, Flatland Mounty, that we've been asked to pick JUST ONE "favorite"... I love Space Mountain, too, but if I absolutely, positively, could go on just one ride at MK, it would have to be Splash Mountain... and let's face it, it's not like the wait times over there are any picnic...

I'm very surprised at all the rides not getting any votes. For the most part kids rides I know, but there has to be someone out there with great childhood memories of these rides.

Peter Pans Flight is always a favorite. This was the ride that sparked the invention of the suspended rollercoaster.
