What I liked about the 70s was driving around with my mom, aunt, or dad just feeling free. We had no seat belts, although I do believe in seat belts for a long time, but with the wind in our hair and the cars were fast. My mom drove a 1971 Chevy Malibu 4 on the four and dang it went fast!
US kids also rode our bikes everywhere, roller skated everywhere, and just had fun. Simpler times.

False, though I am considering for our next trip it looks pretty tasty.

TNP has eaten at whispering canyon café

No I just know that vegetarians/vegans need to know here to eat because our options are fewer. We have to plan more. This trip, I'm trying to eat less cheese and bread and fries.
Try being a gluten free vegan. LOL at home EASY Everywhere but Disney not so much. At least I save by not eating out at home! Last trip I still ate gluten, probably shouldn't have doctor was going to test me before the trip but said go have fun it might be the last time to eat that. I was vegan at the time and had no problems anywhere on property!

If you don't mind, will you share with me your favorite vegan dished at each park so I will have a go-to so I don't have to worry.

Compared to today, they were practically giving the stuff away. Even after the embargo, we thought the prices were unbelievable, but, compared to today cheap, cheap, cheap!


Just to be fair to all the younger folks... Minimum wage was also around 50 cents an hour. The highest I remember it was $1.35 an hour. I'd work all week, 40 hours and get a pay check for $54.00 before taxes. I once got a week-end job (one weekend only) that paid $4.00 an hour and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. That job was unloading freight cars containing cases of motor oil and 55 gallon drums of the same. Worked my butt off for 14 hours for $56.00. Felt like a millionaire though. A sore, aching millionaire, but, one none the less.
Yup, wages fit the times! I want the wages today and the prices of yesterday...now that would provide a good old time for all of us.
