Even the most seasoned WDW veteran can experience firsts at Walt Disney World.  I don’t consider myself a seasoned WDW veteran…yet, but I have been more times than I can remember because we grew up going pretty regularly as kids.  Each trip I take I make it a point to try new things if I can just so I can come back an tell you about it.  Everything I do is for you…research, as Lou Mongello calls it!

I am going to steal an idea from a fellow Disney blogger and mention all the firsts I experienced on my last trip but to repay her I am going to add a link to her page so you can go visit her site at Fairytale Journeys by Nicole.  Be sure to tell her hello and that Mouse Host sent you!
