Is that from the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse?

Yes, I think it is.

Me in 1986 (my first visit)...in the fend off others to get to the characters era (I cut the strange girl outta my pic)

Have a few pics myself of "extra" children in our Disney vacation photos. I like the set up now of waiting to see the characters versus walking up willy nilly. I am sure there are positives and negatives to both. But there were many times that adults would cut right in front of me as a kid!

me too. I have a picture with winnie the pooh and anotehr girl on the other side smiling at her parents for a picture too. My parents did take another one, thank god. They only took like 15 the whole trip, but two were me with pooh! LOL!

Finally one from 1996 of the putrid pink castle...

Was this taken before they put on the decorations??? Cause I don't remember the castle looking anything like that when we were there in 96.

 

[nittanyliongirl02]

Yes, it was before the celebration took place. I think we were there in late August/Early September that year.

I am not really fond of these character heads anyway, but this looks really scary!!!

 

[jenseib]

I wish they would've just kept it pink and not added the decorations. It looked a bit better like that. Of course a pink castle is not excactly pretty any way you put it!

Back then,costume technology was still in it's developing stages. Nowdays, those costumes come equipped with a/c, Sirius radio and GPS...lol

Who are the two characters in front of the carousel? The pirates haven't aged a bit since then.

 

[Mr. & Mrs. Smith]

Who are the two characters in front of the carousel?

I think someone said that they are the Aristocats.

I saw another topiary pic on here, and I loved them. This is one on our way to stay at the CR, we always pulled over to take pics of them. Sitting on them however was not comfy at all!
That is me on the 1st elephant, this was in 1982

The Diamond Horseshoe Review (before it was the Hoop-De-Doo Review)

An old 90's pic:

 

[Rideengineer]

I have no idea how on earth this happened, but this is from my first trip in '85 or '86 to Disneyland. No other kids and four characters It was the start of a life-long addiciton

The Diamond Horseshoe Review (before it was the Hoop-De-Doo Review)

The Diamond Horeshoe Review was at MK. The HDDR has always been at FW.

I haven't had a chance to go through all of the pages yet, but I'm loving seeing all of the old WDW pics! This is the only one I have in my posession right now...I'll have to raid Mom's albums for more. This is my sister and I (I am the younger one) in 1976, in front of Dumbo.

All the slides are from WDW. I did notice that some of the scenes in Pirates have changed over the years. Like the pirates used to chase the women around and now, the women chase the pirates

Also, if I am correct, in my slide with the wench for a bride, there's no "larger wench" whereas today, you can see her right next to the red head.

The PotC pictures are clearly taken from Disneyland's PotC.
