Old Disney Park photos

Well I know that,( always had a perm too ;) ) but if they are supposed to be in character, shouldn't they look like the character? LOL! I like the way Alice looks now. I think t hey got muchbetter with the costumes over the years.

I'm all about staying in character, but maybe she was taking a cue from the Big Cheese himself. Even us humans were not immune to bad fashion! :scared:

[cindyfan]

It looks like Alice's actual hair, rather than a wig.

That's right I think,
it was when the "face" characters still had their own hair and were not required to wear wigs. Now they have to wear the wigs so you aren't supposed to tell them apart.
But kids are smarter than Disney gives them credit for.;)

Greatest... Thread... Ever... I just went through all 84 pages. Maybe I should work now...

Keep 'em coming!!! I'll have to talk to my father and see if I can't get my hands on photos of our earlier trips back in the late 70's early 80's!

By the way, the full name of Grandma Duck is actually Elvira "Grandma Duck" Coot , but she is always referred to as Grandma Duck. I saw her once in a TV Walt Disney Easter parade in the early nineties. She was walking along with Gladstone Gander. I totally wish these characters would be available for meet&greet:lovestruc

:eek: Wow, I didn't know Gladstone was a ever a character in the parks! :)

[Scoobmuzic]

I am pretty sure this was in Inniventions but it was 1999.

My DH (always willing to try anything) He sat there reading the lines on the prompter and was talking to Jay Leno (I think!!) on the screen. Brave Man!!

Actually this was at the Studios . It's the theater next to the Sound Stage. They would pick people to appear as if they were on one of several TV shows. This one was the Johnny Carson show. I got picked for this one once.

[DisGal520]

What are Elfins?



They were multicolored fairy elf characters in the Tapestry of Dreams or Tapestry of Nations parade held in Epcot in 2000 - 2001. I believe I saw them on floats as well as walking in the parade.

Oh, ok . . . in that case I unfortunately don't have any pictures of them for you. :blush:

[Jennygt]

I have some old shots, need dh to help me scan, will try today!

[Atlanta WDW Fan]

Great shots! Love the Illuminations pics. I hear there are changes in the works for that show. I hope it will remain the classic it is now!

[Atlanta WDW Fan]

I remember that stage! Wasn't it Tomorrowland Terrace? They also had a guy that played a huge old Moog Synthesizer in there sometimes.

[cindyfan]

Great shots! Love the Illuminations pics. I hear there are changes in the works for that show. I hope it will remain the classic it is now!

Funny you call it "classic". :goodvibes
I was there the first week they showed Illuminations - Reflections of Earth. It was so exciting!!
It was the beginning of the Millenium Celebration!

I also heard they are planning to remove the globe.

[WeatherbySwann]

I haven't heard about any changes - please tell! :hyper: popcorn::

[kmab00]

I LOVE this thread! I've enjoyed looking at all of the old pictures! Brings back memories!!!

This is from the late 80's....1988 I think! It was around Mickey's 60th Birthday Party Celebration...could have been 1989 I can't remember!

What years was the Mian street Electrical parade? i was there in the later 90's and it was always Spectro Magic.

[monetnj]

What years was the Mian street Electrical parade? i was there in the later 90's and it was always Spectro Magic.

According to Wikipedia, it ran until 1996:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Street_Electrical_Parade

I remember seeing it with my wife in 1995 during our honeymoon and many times on our frequent family vacations when I was a kid. I can't tell you what the parade was in 1999 when we went there for our 4th anniversary. The music for Main Street Electrical Parade was "Baroque Hoedown" which is my favorite piece of Disney Music ever. Took me forever to find a copy. Brings a smile to my face and takes me back to my childhood whenever my iPod decides to play it.

[cindyfan]

They brought back Mainstreet Electrical Parade for the Millenium Celebration....
Spring '99 through April 2001.
here's a quote from Wikipedia....
The parade was refurbished and appeared at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World in May of 1999 for a limited engagement. The parade ended its run in Magic Kingdom on April 1, 2001. The floats were sent back to California for the parade's return to Disneyland.
When Spectro came back we were really disappointed!

[monetnj]

Forgot to mention that I took a 7 second clip of Baroque Hoedown and made it the main ringtone on my iPhone. When my wife calls, the ringtone switches to Kim Possible's kimmunicator ringtone. I love the look on kid's faces when it goes off in a public space. They start looking around as if expecting to see Kim somewhere. :rotfl: Yeah, I'm a Disney geek.

[vellamint]

I have some of the Electrical Parade in 1985

Most of your photos in this post and the first one look like the the old Journey into Imagination and the old "futuristic" playground after the ride. I am not certain about the second to last one, but I know the last one is indeed from the El Rio del Tiempo ride in the Mexican pavilion.

[vellamint]

Okay - my last set for now.....

I know these are NOT Disney but does anyone remember Circus World? This is ME being made up as a clown and then going up those stair to try the flying trapeze.....I can't believe I did that....and at the last minute I was trying to back out and the guy (quite handsome if I remember) picked me up AND DROPPED ME OFF!!!!! WHew....okay - I survived it lol

Thanks.......I dont remember a "futuristic" playground after that ride.....

I was thinking it was that place that used to be on the second floor...oh wait are we thinking of the same thing?

I think one of the shots MIGHT be the hydroponic (sp?) plants at the Living with the Land ride.....

And what is that guys name again - I am having a brain freeze - the Dreamfinder?

Yeah, same thing. My memory is hazy about the ride's relation to the playground, but I do remember that tunnel of lights and the cool games that used to be in there. I was actually up on that second floor recently when they were testing that Kim Possible themed game. The end of the adventure was up there and they fixed up a room to look like Dr. Drakken's lab. Pretty neat stuff.

[Mr. & Mrs. Smith]

I don't remember being at Circus World but I was when I was still in a stroller. There's a wonderful shot my mom has of me with my face done up like a clown.

And I do recognize that old Shamu! I have a picture of me with him, again when I was quite little.

Speaking of Shamu, does anyone have a picture of those old shamu strollers that they used to rent out in Sea World. I was quite disappointed to find out this year that they just have regular boring ones now.

[Sk8Leigh]

http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j145/Vellamint/Martin/1985%20Disney/MondayJuly28200868.jpg

I have a picture of my sone with a Shamu like that, but from the Sea World in Ohio, back when it was open.

For the people that were Main Street Electrical Parade fans, it's currently being performed at Disney's California Adventure. Also, They Might Be Giants recorded a new version of the Baroque Hoedown for the Disney Mania 2 CD a couple of years ago. The entire, full-length audio for the parade is on Disc 6 of A Musical History of Disneyland. :thumbsup2

[kmab00]

The pictures from the Main Street Electrical Parade were from August of 1999. I remember that because it was summer before my Senior year.

I got to see the parade again in Disneyland this past April (except now it's called "Disney's Electrical Parade")! I was so excited because that was one of my favorite parades as a kid!!!

And you can buy a CD of the music at DL, which I assume can also be ordered via mail order from there.

:sad2: I'd never thought I would sound so old but here goes:

Those were the good ol days. When it cost us $31 a day to get in to the Magic Kingdom.

(P.S. They just raised it again to $71 for a one day one park pass! :scared1: )

[Mr. & Mrs. Smith]

(P.S. They just raised it again to $71 for a one day one park pass! :scared1: )

Actually, it was $71 and now it's $75 but really it's all about perspective. Sure the cost of a day's ticket was more than half what it is now but the costs of everything else and the standard of living have gone up proportionally as well.

So, I was looking through old photos last night, and I found this one of my grandmother from...I think the 70's. The picture doesn't have a date or location on it anywhere, and I know that she travelled a lot so it really could be DL or WDW. Anyone recognize what's behind her? I can't place it.

[teresajoy]

OK, this goes against all better judgment, but I figure if you can't laugh at yourself, your world isn't a very good place! So, I took some digital pics of the pics. Oooh, this is scary stuff. People, please, viewer discretion is advised!

Yep, and I thought I was H-O-T and cool at the same time. I was hoping to run into Damon from The Mickey Mouse Club while we were there. He could have never resisted me!!!!!

Oh, how I hate the stupid hat!

Here are some from my family's trip in 1979. I'm the smallest boy in each.

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g201/lockardaw/th_BoyswithAlice.jpg
I like Alice with her real hair!

But I think growing up with regular visits really impacted me. It's so hard to explain. It makes sense in my head but it's very hard to put it into words. There is something different about WDW. I can go to other theme or amusement parks and have fun, but I never feel like I do at WDW. It truly feels like going home. So much of my childhood is benchmarked there. I can walk down Main Street and (unfortunately only in my mind's eye) vividly remember the picture we had to take in front of the flower carts every single trip. I remember my grandpap dragging us into Hall of Presidents every day we were in the MK so he could take a catnap in the back row. I remember riding Dumbo with grandma for the last ride of the night. I remember finally working up the courage to ride Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion, the latter I distinctly remember listening my way through because my hands were firmly glued to my eyes except a quick peek through fingers to see the ghost hitching a ride with us.

Even as the parks have grown, I feel like they've grown with me or me with them. As attractions were added or replaced, I can remember where I was in my life when they were new.

To a lot of people, it's corny and silly. But to me, and probably many people here, it makes sense. All I know is that I can't wait to have kids of my own and start all over.
Aww, that just made me cry! It's so true! I know EXACTLY what you mean! :hug: I bet most of us here understand perfectly too.

I was just wondering if these were from 1976? It looks like it is for the Bicentennial celebration.

I miss the Tarzan Rocks Show!!

Tarzan was and is my all time favorite show! I can't believe they took it out for that NEMO show! :sad2:

Please excuse whatever it is I'm wearing. I was young and stupid.

I love the old paper bags!!

I would excuse it if I could see it! Your pictures are a little small! ;) Are you trying to hide?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v448/thadarkslayer/c95022a9.jpg

So, I was looking through old photos last night, and I found this one of my grandmother from...I think the 70's. The picture doesn't have a date or location on it anywhere, and I know that she travelled a lot so it really could be DL or WDW. Anyone recognize what's behind her? I can't place it.

It looks like the building behind your Grandma says "Bank", if that helps anyone!

[Costumesaremylife]

Ha Ha. I made all the pictures the same size, but only one came out smaller.

In that outfit you could find me in the dark!

If that is the case, this photo was probably taken at Disneyland.

http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s118/northernstar_1/postings/87bofa.jpg

This page describes it as being part of the Opera House building, in DL's town square.

This is a reply to Don Pacho's post way back on page 14. He posted some great old slides he'd scanned that had a fair amount of color fade. I took the liberty of color-correcting my favorites a bit. I hope someone else hasn't done this already and I'm re-posting... I'm only on page 15 of 88 right now!

Hello NBTstatic,
Your mom's outfits are wonderful. I love them and would love to wear them now. They would make great outfits today(with a little spin here and there). I want to be a stylish yet functional WDW mom like her one day. party:

I was thinking the exact same thing! Adorable.

The outfits are just as fun as the pictures themselves.


Great pictures everyone! Keep 'em coming! :goodvibes

I found a few more, I think they are all from 1975.

I noticed lots of big purses and packages! I don't think they had Back Packs or "Fanny Packs" yet!:rotfl2:
And no package pick up either!

[Shan-man]

Whew! I just spent the last 5 hours looking at all these great old photos. Really nostalgic for me. I think a lot of our older Disney pics were lost in my grandparent's floods (yes, floods, 4 of them). This first set are ones i found in my grandfather's dresser after his death. The first two are from April 1972, and are obviously from MK. The third is from the same set of slides, and had the same frame, but I don't recognize it. Perhaps an earlier rendition of JC, or maybe 20,000?

http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19840312_000000-1.jpg

Another favorite from the World of Motion, the Lean Machine! I doubt I ever rode WoM without watching the Lean Machine video at least three times. Alas, that area was quite dark and I never got a decent shot of the real thing, so the brochure will have to do...

http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19840101_000000-4.jpg

Oh, I should have mentioned that... I overdid the color to make it look like an old postcard, the ones with the Technicolor look! The original was much more subdued, so JC could be right.

Some of those look like souvenir slides (containing promotional photos) that were sold in the parks back in the 60s and 70s.

I have so enjoyed going through this thread today. I have literally spent all day (in between minimum amounts of work) browsing the clothes, hairstyles and amazing Disney pics of yester-year.

I wish I could contribute pics of my first trip to the World in May 1992, but alas all of those are lost. Thank you to everyone who has shared. It is so nice to be able to see the changes.

I have some of the Electrical Parade in 1985

The Main Street Electrical Parade is my all time favorite Disney Parade!!!

I got the chance to experience it with my kids when I took them to DLR in 2002. I instantly turned back in to a little kid as I watched those floats go by. I know my kids thought I was crazy :rotfl:

I love listening to the music from The Main Street Electrical Parade on DISradio. It really takes me to my happy place!

I can't hear that music without crying like a baby. During our first trips, we saw that parade twice a night, so it's burned into my heart :love: We saw Spectro when it first started - we were there for the first nights, and we thought it was really cool, but it didn't feel as sweet as the MSEP.

We bought a WDW CD back in the early 90s so we have all of the music, including the parade. Apparently this is a major collector's item. We still sing Veggie Fruit Fruit, and One Little Spark!

[Jenvenza]

Okay - my last set for now.....

I know these are NOT Disney but does anyone remember Circus World? This is ME being made up as a clown and then going up those stair to try the flying trapeze.....I can't believe I did that....and at the last minute I was trying to back out and the guy (quite handsome if I remember) picked me up AND DROPPED ME OFF!!!!! WHew....okay - I survived it lol

[tripplanner2]

You guys are hitting some notes with Circus World. Where was it? In Florida? What year? :confused: I remember going to Florida when DW was just opening and my family did not go because it was so new. They did take me to other places and Sea World was one of them. I wonder if Circus World was another. My parents never took pictures, even today, but I do remember going to some unnamed places as a kid.

[nittanyliongirl02]

Here is a website that has info about Circus World, and Boardwalk and Baseball (which we actually went to when I was younger)....

Thank you for bumping this thread! I found it this afternoon and now, many hours later, I'm finally through all 90 pages. :laughing: It was so awesome to see all of the older pictures. Seeing the fashions was probably my favorite part.

I think it's awesome that so many people had pictures taken from the Skyway! I got pictures from up there on a trip in the 90s and was so sad that it was taken out of the park the next time we went back.

I'm now going to go find some older pictures to share (of things not already shared in this thread). I also want to call my mom and ask her to dig for any pictures from our '74 family trip! :wizard:

[spaddy]

Here's a couple. They are from slides, but I think I got them the right way. I can't figure out where the photos were taken from.

OK, this goes against all better judgment, but I figure if you can't laugh at yourself, your world isn't a very good place! So, I took some digital pics of the pics. Oooh, this is scary stuff. People, please, viewer discretion is advised!

Yep, and I thought I was H-O-T and cool at the same time. I was hoping to run into Damon from The Mickey Mouse Club while we were there. He could have never resisted me!!!!!

I don't know what show this is either. Definitely different than anything that is there now.

Still looking through more slides.

[Sk8Leigh]

That last picture is the Mickey Mouse Revue, which was where Philharmagic is now. I don't really have any memories of it, but i have an old pop-up book of WDW from my childhood (that I still LOVE :love: ) that has it in there. So I keep thinking I remember it, but it's really from the book. :laughing:

I think the show is at Tokyo DL now.

[spaddy]

Maybe I will have to go to Tokyo DL to see it. That's a good excuse right?

[TJM1976]

Before the Philharmagic (sp) wasnt there a Lion King show or something along those lines?

[WeatherbySwann]

Yes, it was called Legend of the Lion King. It wasn't as good as Festival of the Lion King, but it was still pretty good.

Yes, It was taken at the TTC just to the left of the resort Monorail entrance. I actually had DS and DD sit in the same location this past trip and I took a picture. I believe there is a coffee stand located just a little to the left of this location now.

Any idea where this shop is?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v448/thadarkslayer/old%20skool%20disney/91-4.jpg

The TTC?! No. I am 97% sure this is the huge shop in Communicore East, now replaced with Innoventions exhibits. That is certainly an EPCOT uniform on the CM. It could be the shop from Communicore West, where MouseGear is now, but I don't remember the area outside that shop being bright like the area around Imagination, as seen here.

No..:confused3 .. I think the picture that is the TTC is the one with the 2 kids sitting on the concrete bench.
This one with the big MM is in the old shop in Epcot.
I remember the steps leading upstairs. And I am pretty sure it was where the new Mousegears is now.

[TJM1976]

Yes, It was taken at the TTC just to the left of the resort Monorail entrance. I actually had DS and DD sit in the same location this past trip and I took a picture. I believe there is a coffee stand located just a little to the left of this location now.

Could you post the new pic you just took? Would be great to see a "now and then" of the landscaping.

Do you remember where those steps went to? Looks like a sitting area or something with the potted plants.......

[fla4fun]

Those pictures are both from the Centorium, which was the shop prior to Mouse Gear. It had an elevated walkway that ran along the back edge, with floor to ceiling windows, and benches to rest, and you went down steps to get into the shop.

Morocco under construcition...

The street scene from World of Motion (loved that ride)...
http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19840312_000000-1.jpg

Another favorite from the World of Motion, the Lean Machine! I doubt I ever rode WoM without watching the Lean Machine video at least three times. Alas, that area was quite dark and I never got a decent shot of the real thing, so the brochure will have to do...

http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19840101_000000-4.jpg

My ticket to ride. If I recall the price on the back was $18. The good ol' days indeed!
http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19840312_000000.jpg

And, though I've posted it on another thread, this is one of my favorite vintage pics, Spaceship Earth with the acrylic sculpture in front (pre-Leave-a-Legacy blight!).
http://i523.photobucket.com/albums/w359/SLSettles/19850101_000000-31.jpg

Does that ticket say March 12 1984....that is the day before my date of birth :)

[muppetkaties]

totally OT, but my birthday is also March 13 of 1984. just had to give a shout out!!! :cool1: :cool1:

Also, I have enjoyed this thread..thanks too all who have submitted pics. They are great!!

[Tri-circle-D]

I just posted these on another thread here on the Disboards, but I love this thread so much, I had to contribute.

These scans are from my DW's Grad Night at WDW in 1982:

These first four are of the park map for Grad Night:

The artwork on this map sure seems more groovy 70's than it does hip 80's.

Here are scans of the front and back of the scrapbook page where DW kept the map:

Wow. Look at the difference. I still wish they had all those topiaries. Loves the sculptured animals along the monorail. Now you're lucky to find one here or there and none along the monorail like the good ole days. That is one of my clear memories from going back about a year or so after the park opened. I think I was 5ish?

I think the totem poles were at Ft Wilderness... not positive though - they had some, but they may have been different.

What I noted as a little odd was that there were no people walking down the center of main street like they do now. Is that because of the crowd level now, or is it just that people now don't care about right of way? :confused3

There was a LOT more vehicular traffic on Main Street than there is today.

[claryche]

Okay, I should be writing another post for my pre-trip report or getting things ready for our trip to WDW in 6 days. But no, I found this thread and I was hooked. And since we just got a new scanner, I had to go looking for pictures. I have some from 1987 and some from 1997. I'm going to just do the 1987 ones right now. The pictures are from my first trip to WDW for Spring Break my freshman year in college.

Here I am with my friends. I'm the one with the pink shorts on second from the left. This is at Epcot, and I saw another picture similar to this. I guess it was a good picture taking area.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/EpcotWaterfall.jpg

Here I am along with my friend, who became my roommate the next year, kissing one of my favorite people, Robin Hood. Of course maybe we should have kissed him on the cheek instead, so that you could see him in the picture.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/RobinHood.jpg

And here is a picture of one of my friends getting a blessing from Friar Tuck.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/FriarTuck.jpg

Here is a cool picture, of Mexico.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/Mexico.jpg

And here we are in line for spaceship earth.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/LineSE.jpg

I think I saw a similar picture to this, but thought I would include my version also. From Epcot.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/EpcotFountain.jpg

Here is a cool picture of Spaceship Earth at night. You know I've actually lost contact with most of the people I went on this trip with, so maybe some of them will be dissers and will contact me.

Here is a picture from BTMR. I can't take credit for this cool picture though, one of my friends took it.

http://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo336/clapooh/BigThunder.jpg

And I have to share one non WDW picture. This is a picture of my residence hall room the following year, where my friend and I got a bright idea for wall decorations. I thought it was pretty creative of us.

I recently found some pictures of a visit to Disney World from August 1982. My grandmother lived in Orlando and my sister and I were visiting her and for our birthdays -both in August - she took us to Disney World for the day. Back then it was just the Magic Kingdom but Epcot was going to open in October so we got to take the monorail over to see a little preview of Epcot. When I first looked at the pictures I couldn't understand why I only had pictures of the entrance to Epcot then it dawned on me why.


http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w98/Tonya2426/Disney%208-1982/EpcotPreview1.jpg


If you look closely, you can see construction going on with what I think is Morroco - or maybe that is Japan.

They sell something similar to the old balloons now. They last a lot longer than just a regular balloon and aren't as prone to pop but do cost about $10. (But I still love the old balloons.) :sad1:


I got this last December which is why is has snowflakes on it.

And, as someone else previously mentioned, back then, the characters just "showed up" out of nowhere and walked around. There were no scheduled spots to see them. Here was a chance encounter with the "first couple" - ha!

I think the balloons that people were mentioning are the same kinds that they're giving away during the "What Will You Celebrate?" Tour. From the videos and pictures I've seen they look to be the same ones. :thumbsup2

From 1978. These are pictures from Mickey's 50th anniversary parade. its fun to see how the characters looked back then! I will also post so non character pictures later on.

This picture came out weird, its like a combination of 2 pictures. My sister was in love with Grumpy and sort of went to see him during the parade!!! :eek:

Depends on when the photo was taken (month, day of the week, time). I've seen Fantasyland look just as deserted recently (i.e. last week) during the 3:00 Parade.

Aw tr-ray, you made me emotional with those pictures!

Especially the banner that you still have displayed in your house.

Very sweet.

WOW..... Thanks for sharring all these great pictures. lots of great memories...

[CAJUNWDWFAN]

I'll be adding some pictures pretty soon. I just have to finish scanning the old negatives and slides my dad has. I have some pictures from the 70's and 80's

[CAJUNWDWFAN]

Those old pictures are coming soon. I just scanned some more last night. I went through some old slides from July of 1980 when I was 5 1/2 years old. I saw some great pictures of Discovery Island, River Country, and other long lost attractions. I also found some slides from 1977, 1978, and 1983.

They were taken in September, 1987. Epcot was less than 5 years old, and the characters didn't have handlers back in 1987.

Not sure what year it was but these guys used to wander around the World Showcase.

Thanks for taking me back!!!! :goodvibes

Awesome picture! Your mom is so young in all of them. I don't think she ever aged in the years. LOL! And so skinny!

[tzolkin]

I know there are pictures of my dad in those super-short shorts from when my parents went to FL for their honeymoon. I'll have to dig through their old photos and scan some. ;)

Great pictures!! I am envious that you have so many - I guess my family didn't take a lot of pictures. :sad2:

I stayed here back in 1989 with my ExDH on our Honeymoon. It was a great hotel to stay at. Moderatly priced and right across the street from the Poly so just walk down the drive and over to the Monorail.

I will have to look but a lot of the pictures from that time were left with him and any ones that I took with me, I only kept the ones that had just me or were of things.

And when was Splash MTN built? must have been after this picture, right?

I'm glad you asked about this pic.... I was wondering the same thing. The buildings off in the far background, are those Frontierland? Like Pecos Bill area?

I LOVE these old park photos!! Seening what it looked like before and today.

[CAJUNWDWFAN]

Yes this is a picture from up on the hill in the que looking down and to the right towards Frontierland. This picture was taken in 1986 or 1987 I can't figure out which but Splash Mountain will not but built until 1992. So that's why it's not in the photo. :)

[heaven2dc]

I found this photo with me in it ..... and the pink "thing" :scared1:

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/brackjr/New%20Pictures/0215060-R2-E028.jpg


I remember that "pink thing" very well! It was our first visit to WDW in March 1997 and we were so disappointed not to see the castle (or how it looks without all the icing). We had a fabulous 10 days there tho so can't complain ;)

Great pics Jedi. Fond memories of The Living Seas (before Nemo). Got any of my favorite ride Horizons??

[madmike20]

I don't remember all of these places but i hadnt gone much back then either.

I'm most dissapointed about this. Horizons was my favorite but neither my dad or I, later when I started taking pictures has any of Horizons. I was lucky and surprized that I had pictures of World of Motion and Communicore. But yes sadly no Horizons. :(

OH yes I had fond memories of the Living Seas. I used to like to watch that show with the Greek god Atlas about plate techtonics. And the robot Jason. Those were great. Actualy the last time I got to see those was 2003.

Here are a few - I need help with some....March 1974...

Is this Main Street?? My mom has it labeled "Marketplace" in the album...

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/TaraDPA/Old%20DIsney%20pics/FL74b0001.jpg

This is labeled "Omnibus" - anyone remember this? It looks like there are people riding in it...

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/TaraDPA/Old%20DIsney%20pics/FL74d0001.jpg

[TaraPA]

Um....all I can say is that I'm SO GLAD I'm not in these pictures!! Yes that's really my dad with the groovy glasses, and my brother with his plaid bell bottoms - and what the heck is around their necks - old Kodak cameras?? Binoculars?????

This was outside of the Train Station according to the writing...doesn't look familiar to me - is it Frontierland??

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o228/TaraDPA/Old%20DIsney%20pics/FL74c0001.jpg


Gotta love those plaid pants - wait -I think he has on a white polyester turtleneck T-shirt too! :rotfl2:

[TJM1976]

Just by a quick glance, looks like it is Main Street, but one of the "side areas" off Main Street. The "omnibus" is the double-decker bus that strolled from the front of the park to the castle. The building behind the bus looks like one of the refreshment / snack stands in front of the castle.

That would be the Frontier Land train depot. The reason it looks different from now is because that train stop was moved to accomodiate for Splash Mountain.

[TaraPA]

Thanks for the info!

Fast Forward 13 years to Epcot....hey dad lost the groovy glasses...but gained a Members Only jacket!!! :lmao: Now I am the one with the groovy shades (in the red shirt with the collar up), and yes those are yellow high top Reebok sneakers - SO the rage in 1987!
