As long as there is wheelchair/scooter/atv access, I don't think I'd ever be too old.![]()
Besides hoping to live to 80, I was wondering if I will still be able to get around WDW.
What's the oldest you all know of a person going to WDW and having a great time?

I know of people in their 90's that have been. Though they didn't do much in terms of rides, I know they had a blast.
You could roll me around the MK at age 100 on a stretcher if you had to!! A little IV drip and I'm all set!!
Seriously, though... I know of many senior-seniors who have gone, enjoying the sights, sounds, smells and often shows at WDW. Of course, I would recommend going in the cooler, less crowded months, and taking advantage of a nice, leisurely trip around the World.

I am "only" 57, which is approaching the "youth of old age (60)," but at times I feel like 80. Right now I can outdo many a younger man at WDW. The place gives me new vigor.
