Time for another new topic... or should I say, old topic? How about a stroll down memory lane...?!. Let's reminisce... :goodvibes

Anyone have photos of things that have been closed up, locked up, (burned up?), shipped out, bulldozed under, gone forever favorite (or not so favorite) things of days gone by?

*From any Disney theme park worldwide* :thumbsup2

A few categories to jog your thoughts...
- attractions
- shows
- restaurants
- hotels
- signs (I miss the old Disneyland sign!)
- decorations
- etc (surely there is something bizarre that you miss - for me, it's the Disneyland parking lot! ) :rolleyes:
landscaping


I have some 70's pics of Disneyland, if I could only get my darn slide scanner to work. :badpc:

This building is now closed, isn't it? If it isn't, someone please let me know and I'll remove the photos. Thanks!

Wonders of Life: I think so. :( I'm really bummed because I remember liking it when I saw it (way back in '91). I would love for my kids to see it...I think there was a lot to learn in there. Why oh why did they close it? :sad2:

Before the hat: I miss 'before the hat'.... the theater looked so grand...

here is CarolC's oldest sister, taken a year before she (the OP) was born...

(sent to yesterland a few years ago)
btw... our father used to always point to the tiny people while queueing for 'Adventure throught InnerSpace': "look, there's the man in the white shirt, and there is the lady in the blue shirt...". it sure made it seem more real.

This was also taken at Discovery Island...

It was the closed to the public by Oct 99, our girl scout troop did a private tour there before the animals were moved.

The Osborne Lights when they were Wicked Awesome!


I agree the Osborne lights were sweet when they were on the backlot tour!

Here are pictures of me with some fellas you won't see running around looking like this anymore!

The upholstery is gone, but the last time I checked, those benches are still there.
