Traditions?

Does your family have any traditions?
My Dad and I have a picture taken together in front of the fountain in the Italy Pavilion in Epcot. I was born in 1982.. So we have one there from the time I was 3 months old up until 18. I think we have 6 or 7 total.
I was wondering if anyone else had something fun like this that they do

Bill (LizardCop) and his wife Jan, Sue (rescuesk) and her DH Steve, and myself have started having a traditional Farewell Breakfast at the Maya Grill. We've included others traveling with us a few times, but the 5 of us are a constant and we wouldn't miss our Farewell Breakfast now for anything.

When I was a kid my dad and I always had our picture taken together in front of the "cigar store type" Indian statue. I'm not really sure how that tradition came to be.

Now that I have my own family our tradition is we always have a Mickey rice krispie treat on our last day. YUM!

This is not a picture -but a fun little tradition.
The first time I went with my friend Kim she told me that her and her family always did this and so now I always do it with mine or whoever I go with:
We try to guess the color of the first monorail we will see.
Small but fun!

We have many little traditions and seem to keep adding more each time we go! Ever since our first trip we have to have a Mickey Ice Cream Bar every time we go. We also always try at least 1 new restaurant that we have never been to. This next one may sound a little "silly", but...we stayed at the Beach Club on our honeymoon and even though we aren't staying there we still go there every trip and walk around the resort and visit our room (well the door anyway!). Being back at the Beach Club makes us feel like we are on our Honeymoon again.

We always do DTD our first afternoon and then MK the first day. We always take pictures in front of the castle, but that's not too unique!
