1974. Can you believe we took my brother's rifle home on the airplane?!?
Nice bell bottoms on the guy in the back ground. Try taking that rifle on a plane today you might be arrested.

Views from the Skyway (still 1974) -
Excellent photos! I love the old skyway photos. I'm still waiting on some old Poly pictures or Contemporary. Thanks everyone for sharing.

Here's me in our room at the Poly (again, 1974). Very groovy. (is anyone else impressed that I had a hair ribbon to match my jammies?)
This is Donald Duck waterskiing on the Seven Seas Lagoon. I'm pretty sure this was taken from our balcony at the Poly. I'm also pretty sure Goofy was driving the boat! LOL!
Swimming at the beach of Seven Seas Lagoon. I think this was the beach at the Contemp. (I remember going there to swim) I also think that's my sister on the left of the raft. EDIT: Ok, I actually JUST noticed that it's not only my sister on the raft, but GOOFY also (sitting in the middle).

Thanks! I'm really enjoying them too! I finally convinced my Dad to let me have our slides scanned. We also have a set of "bought" slides from that trip that are great, but very very faded. I might have to see if they can be salvaged.
Here's my sister meeting Pooh (she would kill me if she knew I was posting this chubby pic of her!)

December 1972
Found our box of slides from our December ‘72 trip. Most of the slides are poor quality, very dark once scanned. These were a couple that turned out ok. Certainly nothing as good as the quality of some of the others on this thread.
I am rockin’ those red knee highs and shoes!
Mom was classic for cutting our heads off in photos!

What was this from? Cinderella and The Three Caballeros together? Edit: ...and Sneezy too!
Geez, WDW looks like a ghost town in many of these pictures.

When my DH saw our old pics he asked my dad "how did you get in the Park after it was closed?" cuz it just looked so empty.
Echovictor - what was it with red shoes in the '70's? please note my red sneakers in my (above) pics (I remember really loving them!)
Here's Donald - I think this was part of the afternoon parade. (from my pics it looks more like a "parade of characters" not really any floats)

I have a picture from our 73 trip of my grandmother at the entrance to MK taken from a distance and there are only 3 other people in the photo. It looks as if we rented the whole place out. It really was a ghost town.
Hilarious. They must have been my favorite too as I had them on in 80% of the photos from that year!

These 70's pics are awesome. MK is a very 70's park and WDW is a very 70's resort, I really like that aspect of it, too bad there are only a few remnants of that! I posted on the WDW site that instead of turning those Contemporary rooms into wellness suites they should have a 70's floor!! I wish I was around during the 70's to experience this awesome period of time. Thanks again for the pics!
