I did too. It was the very first WDW park that I visited and to this day I believe it was better then than it is now.

My first trip to the fort was 1985 & I was 7 yrs old.

Hey, that's the car I got my wife. She's always wanted a convertible.

I wonder if they'll have a scooter parade again? The last one was great. Scooters all decorated and stuff. The onlookers weren't too happy though. Instead of just a few people getting annoyed, everyone watching did.

1972 in a converted bread truck RV while my mom was expecting me. Back kicking and screaming the following year.

I like to think I remember the FWRR, but realisticly I probably remember the "slide" show. I believe the FWRR was a seasonal operation at that time and was not running 365/7 as it was when it began. I do remember hopping on the trams and buses. We always stayed in the 900 lo

Perspective is fine, but what you really need is beer. Plus...just remember, one of life's great pleasures is sitting under an awning or on the Trails End porch drinking a cup of coffee and watching the rain come down. Like you said...go with the flow.

Thank you very much.....you are absolutely correct. That's what I needed- perspective.

I understand, I really do. You have spoent so much time and effort planning this trip - not to mention $$. It's hard not to stress over the weather. My advice would be to pray. Don't pray for good weather. Pray to be grateful for the chance to go no matter what the weather. Pray for good attitudes for everyone going. Pray for good memories, even if they are the ones that take a few months before you can laugh about them. Pray whenever you are tempted to check the weather, knowing that checking it won't change it. Unless there is a tropical storm or hurricane headed for FL, you are goi

Yes, sounds perfect.
