    Growing up in LA I went to Disneyland countless times as a kid, but my first trip to WDW was in 1984.

    I really miss the Magic Journeys 3D movie at Epcot. I would love to see it again. I wonder how it would hold up today?

    Other things I miss: River Country, the video information/reservation kisoks at Epcot, If You Had Wings, Kitchen Cabaret, Cranium Command, Communicore (especially the little make your own rollercoaster program), Horizons ( I can smell the oranges now!), the Empress Lilly, the "Now is the the time" CoP and so many other little things. On my '84 and '85 trips I must have eaten a dozen of those frozen strawberry bars they used to sell.

    Aah, memories!

    I miss the skyway, it was the airborne TTA. I remember just riding along watching the world below. I also liked that way back when, you didn't know how all the "magic" worked. At least I didn't.

    Our first trip was in 75. Stayed at CR. Remember fondly the Sunday morning buffet at Top of the World....and relatively inexpensive meals for the kids at the Concourse Buffeteria...
    Agree with Ian about better access (and quality) of fast food, and particularly the Teriyaki Burger at the Adventureland Terrace...
    And for rides, from that trip, miss most of all If You Had Wings, the Skyway, and Toad....
