Originally Posted By Goofyernmost I often wonder in threads like this one, if the first ride is the actual first ride or the first one we remember.

I stated that PoC was my first ride but when I think about it I am usually a person that is systematic in how I approach things. Since Jungle Cruise would have been the first thing I came upon (I always go to the left at the parks)it is possible that JC was the first one I went on but I only remember PoC. I guess it doesn't really matter but I wanted to share that thought.
Originally Posted By ChiMike I agree. I can't even remember the first ride I went on during my last trip. I remember 20K, because that is all we talked about (remember no coasters yet), the line took for what seemed all morning, and we kept a picture labeled, "Mike's First Ride" So for me, it's not a tough tidbit. But yes, I agree with you.
