Good evening mousewait friends:) welcome to this weeks edition of Disney Mania Monday! This weeks topic is your favorite ride when you were a kid (or when you first started to remember or go to Disney parks). Mine is and always will be Splash Mountain. Obviously I couldn't go on that ride when I first started going to disneyland, but many of my favorite childhood Disney memories are wrapped up in that ride:):). Have fun tonight for those of you in the parks, and let the discussion begin!
My favorite as a kid was the Tea Cups!!! I would run to this ride and want to go on it over and over again, even after a full meal!! - KadensMommy

I liked the skyway as a kid also liked riding a donkey down the trail but don't know that name I remember I always wanted to go on the rocket ships and no one would go with me so that was my first all alone ride - lisaw

Mine was Space Mountain! I remember going to WDW and riding it over and over, no wait. This was in 1977... It wasn't very crowded because it was August in Florida. :) The next Summer we went to DL and the line was so long I could only go on it once. It's funny because it makes me a little nauseous now. :) - PeachKay

1959.8 #35 7:57PM
Is that last one in wdw?? - thebigr 8.1 #7539 8:20PM
Adventures Thru Inner Space was only at Disneyland. It was taken out in the mid eighties and replaced by Star Tours. A great SyFy ride that still has a following among those who remember it. - ScooterMike 1959.8 #35 10:37PM

I think it's always been Space Mountain. Even to this day there's nothing quite like the feel of the wind through your hair, the surprise of the turns and having a million stars all around you at once. As a kid, that ride blew my little mind to pieces π - Aquata
292.2 #659 8:34PM
So I would say my favorite ride since I was a kid was space mountain. Still to this day It's been my favorite. The amazing lights, the astronaut like feeling, the windy breeze and amazing turns with whips as you ride.
Plus my favorite part is that you see a futuristic spaceship when you enter, and as a kid your like.....wow that's a real spaceship - GoofyWillie2000

American Sing will always be in my heart. I loved the singing and enjoying the show. Nice to still see some of the animals in Splash Mountain. Miss being that young. - adventurerEnDisneylandia {AED}
278.6 #743 10:05PM
I miss America Sings SO much! I used to play the CD often to reminisce and would narrate to my kids which characters would be singing the different songs. They took it out when I was a teen and I wish there was some magical way they could bring it back! *sigh* - Nala 331.5 #466 10:53PM
America Sings is the earliest memory I have at Disneyland... Clapping to the music laughing like a fool. Pirates is my all time favorite ride. - jennlovesminnie 31.1 #4322 9:38PM
