It was the very early 90s, I was 19, and was finishing Navy bootcamp in Orlando and got our weekend liberty before graduation. My parents and boyfriend came down and we got to go to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot. I only have one picture of that whole weekend! LOL Back in those days, people didn't take as many photos since we had to pay to get them developed, I suppose, and we just were used to that and lived in the moment, but I do wish I had more photos of that trip. Since I was on liberty, I was in my Navy summer whites so not the most comfortable way to be walking around Disney World, but I was so excited to get to have some fun and be with my family. What I remember the most is my first time through Haunted Mansion, being mesmerized by the dancing ghosts and getting a huge kick out of the ghost in our car at the end, and the Electrical Light Parade dazzling me. We spent a few hours in Epcot, as well, but I just remember walking in the rain a lot with a big Mickey poncho on to protect my whites from getting wet and becoming see-through! I am guessing we didn't stay long because of the rain and I had to get back to the base later that evening. I do remember thinking how amazing the countries were in World Showcase and it motivated me to want to travel to the real countries someday, which I have gotten to go to several of them since my young self became inspired by Disney to travel, but now my old self just wants to go to Disney. LOL!
