This is so cool! I need to get a scanner.

I always tell Chip & Dale apart because Dale has two teeth & Chip has only one. I like your version better though.

It you say that to Chip he will become quite unhappy. He has two teeth, they are just together unlike Dale who has a gap between his.

NO WAAAY! I so thought I read that COP was finally closed for good! Thats great news! Looks like I will be visiting COP once again next month =)

I just returned yesterday from WDW..... the COP is still up and running. My kids (9 & 5) both really enjoyed it and were totally intrigued with the whole rotating theater idea. COP has always been one of my favorites!

Here's mine for today..........I think these boats are gone now.

Thank you so much Disneygrl36!! For the longest time, I have had this vague memory of being on the upstairs part of a boat with tons of other people when my baby sister threw her bottle down the stairs and some guy picked it up and handed it to my mom. It is the only thing I remember, but I couldn't remember where it was, until I saw your picture!!! (page 19) The boat is exactly the way I saw it in my head and as soon as I saw the staircase, I knew for sure.

Thanks!! Now I know that memory was from my first ever Disney trip...I was 4

I seriously choked on my diet coke looking at these pictures! I absolutely LOVE the shorty shirt your brother was wearing! How totally 80's of him.....

...actually, I was diggin' the white knee socks.....

Subscribing! Some pictures I can see, but others are blocked at work

I have pictures from 85, 90 and 93 at home that I would love to scan. Gotta ask DH if he can do it at work for me (don't have a scanner at home, go figure ).

I do have a picture of the Rainbow tunnel that was upstairs in Journey Into your Imagination. <sigh> How I miss the old decor. Can't stand the new "industrial" look and I miss Dreamfinder!

Woo hoo, here's some more 80s magic...

This is my first trip to WDW in 1986. Here's the whole family in front of the fountain at Epcot.

Here we are gallivanting with celebrities later at Epcot (PS, I'm the little girl with the twin brother...will come in handy later for awkward photo).

Arr, we were pirates before it was fashionable

And here I am with my twin brother (and two cousins) just four short years later. We are, of course, in front of Liberty Tree Tavern. Feel free to notice how, at the tender age of 10, I was beginning to enter my "awkward" years (i.e., my ponytail looks like my entire scalp is being pulled back).

I recently scanned these in after looking for photos to put together for my mom's 50th. I have the rest of the 86 trip waiting to be scanned, but I have yet to dig up the rest of the 1990 trip. I love seeing these old pictures...these trips were the foundation for my love of Disney today. And knowing that my parents scrimped and saved and worked really hard to take us there makes it even more meaningful

Nice shots. Isn't that the Hall of Presidents in the last photo?

I was reading some vintage photos thread on one of these boards yesterday and someone had posted an old park hopper - so I got out all of mine that I could find - thought everyone would love to see the old ones.

The first one is from 1981 (3 days in the magic kingdom for $27.75 - what a bargain!!); then the next one looks like 1984 ($65.50 for a 5 day park hopper -Magic Kingdom and Epcot)

1984 Park Hopper for 4-days, two parks for $48.00;
1989 Park Hopper for 4-days, three parks for $97.00 (grand opening of MGM)

1990 Park Hopper for 5-days including Pleasure Island for $130.00;
1990 Park Hopper for 4-days for $99.00 (Magic Kindom Club - I miss the Magic Kingdom Club)
1990 Park Hopper for 6-days - no price on it.



I also found some old napkins that I had kept.

Mickey's 60th Birthday

Does anyone know if the napkins still look like this at the CBR???

I have no idea if the napkins are still there, but I have one in my memory box! I figured I was the only one who still had one of those. It was our first trip back in 1993 and I saved everything. EVERYTHING. Even the puke bag from my first plane ride.

Oh, you're right. It was washed out and I couldn't tell...but now that you mention it, it is HoP.

Good eye!

When did you go in 1990? We went in July. Wouldn't it be funny if we found each other in our photos ?

 

[Sabres2008]

It was actually October. I was lucky...I got out of school and I got to celebrate my birthday in WDW!

That would have been really neat, though!

Oh well.

I love that last photo of you and your family dressed as pirates. I wish WDW still did those. In 1985 we had the picture done with the caboose and dressed in 1800 style clothing. I would have loved to have that done now with my DH and our DS (who'se almost 5).
