Old Disney Park photos

[amyhughes]

I always giggled at the Al's Toy Barn commercial says in that So Droll Voice: Available at al Al's Toy Barn locations in the Tri-County Area. I grew up here, so hearing about "other" Tri areas always kinda shocked me when I was younger!

I miss the old SkyWay. I understand why it was taken down, cause the line was UNBEARBLE. But with FastPass I think they should bring it back. It was a cool view point on the parks.

Yes! Me too! My entire family busts out when we watch that part.

I don't think the skyway was taken down that long ago. It was still there in 99.

Isn't that the truth?

Now, in a perfect example of cruel irony, our "little legs" get nipped off by the ginormous strollers

BTW, that was just a joke, folks, so please don't flame me

I have thought this many a time. My first trip to the World was when I was six and my brother was four. My dad refused to get a stroller. He made sure that we didn't go until we were able to walk. We were flat out exhausted though at the end of each day. But my dad was also one of those dad's that said "If you're thirsty, there is a water fountain right over there!"

I have a ton of old photos starting with our first trip in 1984. I need to figure out how to get them on here. It is amazing to me just how the scenery and landscaping has changed.

Hope to be posting soon!!

We saw the Doug show too, My DD was about 6 or 7 at the time and she loved it so much. She kept asking "is it almost over?", and I would say "no" and she would say " good, I love this so much, I don't want it to end! " LOL!
