I wonder where this photo was taken at? Epcot or MK?

I'm inclined to say MK based upon the architecture. However, you have now set me on a quest to find the exact spot, so I'll be back when I succeed.

Also, I now hate you almost as much as my obsessive personality issues

After some research, I am pretty sure that this was taken in 1986 or 1987 in front of the Prize Winners Redemption Center. This was part of the 15th anniversary promotion and was in the Hospitality House (now known as Exposition Hall).

1981 Advertureland Veranda. Good place to eat back then. Boys enjoyed eating out there. It is now Skipper Csnteen, but I don't know if you can still eat on the little porch area.

1981 our 1st character breakfast on the Empress Lily.

What great fun! I took my first trip in '75 then not again till '90 on my honeymoon and several times since with my kids. So, these 80's pix were fun and interesting what changed and what didn't so much!

What was that camera center purchase? A roll of film, or a Fun Saver camera?

Putting in "KMA-464" into a search engine reveals...Kodak KMA-464 Super 8 Kodachrome 40 Movie Film. FWIW

These are 1987 receipts I found recently. Adventureland Veranda in the Magic Kingdom was a favorite place for us to eat. We would sit outside and the boys would look for fish in the water beside the veranda.

While cool to see, this isn't surprising or specific to Disney. Inlation alone since 1987 makes those prices more than double and there was no Animal Kingdom or Hollywood Studios.
