One more from 78 - anyone know who this character is?

I'm guessing.......Stromboli??

 

[JoshuaShaw]

That is Stromboli, from Pinocchio.

BINGO. A photo that shows the seatbelts instead of safety bars. (The belt is hanging over the edge just to the right of the boy's hand).

Although I do not have a picture, it seems to me that the safety bars on splash are relatively new. About 15 years ago I rode that ride with my 5 year old and was surprised that the handle bar was just that; a bar to hold onto. I remember intertwining my arm and hers and holding on really tight. I feel a lot safer now being able to lower the bar.

The old MK map.

Map, schmapp - remember when you actually got a little *booklet*? Those were the days.

Maybe I can scan a couple of pages of those guys in.

Not quite Disney but on the way there!

Ah, yes, Eastern, the official airline of WDW. With Delta in the background ready to take over.

Does anyone have a pic of the Dark Wing Duck show in Mickey's Toon Town?

I posted a pic just a few posts before your message. Look for post 849 on page 43.

I remember those from a college spring break trip in 1980!! When I was posting the 1993 version, my husband was reminding me of those older ones. I was pretty sure you sat in the lap of the person behind you and their legs went along the side of the person in front of them. I didn't remember a seat belt.

OK- time for a few more blasts from the past!

Who remembers this World Showcase Players show in Canada- 1993? Dudley Do-Right, Snidely Whiplash and all!!



Also- Nova Era played electronic classical music in Italy- this one is from 1998.
I know they are often found playing in Downtown Disney these days-without the baroque costumes!


More later...

EXACTLY!! I always rode with my older brother, and then when my younger brothers were old enough, I rode with one of them. Otherwise, it would have been awkward.

What is this one from?

The Earful Tower when you could still take the Backlot tour, and an original icon of the park, pre-hat, on brochures.

[DemonLlama]

one of the things I really regret is never getting over to Epcot for the Light of Winter at night.

Great photo tribute here http://www.disneytouristblog.com/lights-winter-tribute/

No, I know about the Earful tower, of course... but why did it look like that? I assumed it was a replica or something for flower and garden.

 

[DemonLlama]

nope, that's just what it looked like on the Backlot Tour Dec. 2004!

It's hard to know what's not there anymore since I haven't been since 2012! I assume with the TT refurb the dummies are gone.
