No, but an interesting idea



I think I did. I scanned a few of them a while back but went on a scanning frenzy last week

Mom and dad took us there in November 1971.
Theres more somewhere but I havent found them yet
...

Found it!
The name of the youtube video is "The Most Depressing Ride at Walt Disney World"

Yeah thats depressing.

My niece and her fiance are at WDW right now They had a great visit but are flying home tomorrow morning.
Ive seen a Youtube video called something like "The Worst Ride at WDW" or something like...

After breakfast my buddy and I did wander around DTD too.

I understand why they did what they did, but it was kind of a bummer to see Pleasure Island without all the old clubs in place.

I...

That show at Daytona was so bad I dont know how many people will even go back next year. I know I wont return in the future unless I see a dramatic improvement next year. They need to cut the...

I live 7 hours away from Orlando Its something I can do only one week out of the year

:)

I saw two nights of the World of Outlaws sprints at Volusia. Monday night I didnt feel like seeing the Late Models so I just hung out in the camping area with the guy camping next to me. I went to...

I drove down to Florida for the races last week. I called an old high school buddy who lives South of Tampa to tell him Id be driving from Daytona to Ocala on Wednesday and Id like to see him for...

My wife was expecting it to be like Six Flags when I took her for her first WDW visit in 2008
She was blown away even before we got into Magic Kingdom and she cried the morning we had to go home

I will never ever again drink so much at Pleasure Island that I end up passing out on the bus ride back to the Grand Floridian.

Not exactly the brightest idea I ever had
:beer::marg::blush:

We noticed the lack of over weight people too.
I think the first 6-12 months that WDW was open the crowds were less than anticipated.

I think 1973 was rough too when gas got scarce for a time

I got a brother in New Jersey who tells me he ended up with a few boxes of slides too :secret:

Wont be this week or next month, but this thread is far from over:)

No it didnt exist yet, but nice catch.
That didnt even occur to me :thumbsup:

SM opened several years later. 1975? 1976?
I do remember we went to WDW one year and we were on the boat...

Dad dropped off a box of several hundred slides today. Yes, lots of Disney pics in the pile. Heres 40 for today
...

I will never understand why people are willing to pay more to go now. If someone handed me free passes Id probably say no thanks

I was only 6 when we went in 1971 so naturally I assumed the entire ride occurred inside the"Mansion" I can remember trying to figure what room of the mansion was behind each window of the...

'Phins Phan since Phorever!

Ive disliked the Cowboys for over 40 years now because of Super Bowl VI :sick:

Thanx.

Me too.

I absolutely LOVE going thru old photos like these. Often times the stuff going on in the background is just as interesting. Obviously Im old enough to remember these days...

Thanks every body for the excellent tips. I will do what was suggested. More to come soon

Im sure theres much better pics buried away and waiting to be found

:mickey:

So I got a scanner for Christmas which can scan slides and negatives into files on your computer. I found several slides so far from our trip to WDW in late 1971. I know theres more but 99% of...

Him and 20 milion other American men ;)

I rode it once. Took a pretty good power nap in there :blush:
I was curious so I found a clip on Youtube. Yes that phone is a generation or two behind. And its been a while since Jamie Lee...

The last new movie I saw was "Valkyrie" :blush:

I totally agree that new movies dont belong in there but theres 20 years of truly classic movies that are omitted.

Field of Dreams hadnt been...

My wife and I are in our mid-40s Last time we went to WDW we were in line at another ride and struck up a conversation with a very nice young couple. They were in their mid 20s. We mentioned GMR...
