CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Okay, I'm gonna try and finish this up. I have lots of pics, but I'm trying to only post the ones that show a real difference in WDW from 1989 to the present.Around 1986 I told David that I would love to spend my 40th birthday in Disney World. I never mentioned it again and figured that it went the way of most of my remarks -- "in one ear and out the other." In 1989 about 3 weeks before my birthday David asked if I still wanted to spend my birthday there. Shock, shock! Our APs were still valid, and he had already arranged for my parents to babysit the two younger kids. Of course I said yes, then he dropped a bomb. He didn't want to tow the TT down for a short trip, so would I mind tent camping? We bought a tiny little tent just big enough for a queen-sized air mattress, a TV, and a cooler. And off we went.We arrived at the fort, set up the tent. Here's our site. The tent was so small, you can't see it behind the suburban:We were somewhere in the 100 loop.After getting set up we were off to the MK and stayed there pretty late. We got back to the tent, and it was 40 degrees out! The only source of heat we had was a hair dryer. So we rearranged our site once again. Put the air mattress back into the suburban and used the tent for storage. Used the hair dryer to heat our PJs before we could even change into them. We woke up freezing several times that night. The next morning we ate cold cereal at an even colder picnic table, then went over to MGM. I'm glad I took this picture, because I've not seen this snack location open since that trip:Some more shots from MGM:I remember the Golden Girls house, but what was the other house used for?Photobucket is acting up again ... will finish up later.

The Castle Guy 36 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 I recently found our 1989 pics and had a blast going through them. Wanted to share some of them with you all!We were at the fort in August 1989. It looked considerably different back then!River Country:The view from the skyway in the MK:More to come when Photobucket starts behaving. Those photos from the Skyway were really cool. Notice the crowd level? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Oh wow - I'd completely forgotten what that part of MGM looked like. We saw it once at Christmas time when they used to setup the Osborne lights there. It was a really nice setup for that back then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
