Wow, it's clear now that "my" WDW has slipped into the archives right before my eyes. Those TL spires, the black and white astro-jets, If You Had Wings, Mission to Mars, etc. - all gone, some replaced, nothing looks the same except Space Mtn's. exterior. I encourage today's youth (and you parents) to take as many photos of "your DL/WDW" as you can. Get a few of 'dry' pics of signage, trash cans, benches, etc. because in 20-30 years, it is likely that nothing will look the way it does now and as Greg and I have both found out, most books just don't capture the place the way you'll remember it being. Again, great job on the poster!

Originally Posted By bhb007 I think the poster is accurate in its feel, but it also hints at my big problem with MK vs. DL... the scale is too big. I found the scale of MK (and EPCOTC for that matter...) exhausting and dominating the landscape. DL's old Tommorrowland was much more inviting...
