Friday

Flashback Friday~ Cowabunga Dude!


It's time for Flashback Friday! Time to focus on our favorite Disney memories from the past. This week we discovered (unearthed) more old photos and ephemera from Walt Disney World circa 1991. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were all the rage at MGM's backlot.





 The pizza-eating Leonardo, Michaelangelo, Donatello and Rafael would arrive in their Turtle Party Wagon with their news reporter friend April O'Neil.

Kids oozing with enthusiasm to meet their "heroes in a half shell" first watched a live stage show full of karate moves and gymnastics and then were treated to a meet and greet by each of the TMNT. Very heady stuff for the kids 
as they really were the super heroes of the time.




My son had a great time with each of the TMNT signing autographs and playing around with them and made many happy memories. It's always fun to look back each Friday. 


Thanks for stopping by. 
I hope you are having a Disney Day!



Do you remember The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? 

Flashback Friday ~ MGM Studios 1991


It's time for Flashback Friday! Time to focus on our favorite Disney memories from the past. This week we discovered (unearthed) an old photo from The Disney-MGM Studios circa 1991.



We had fun posing in this scene. Back then there were no PhotoPass photographers so you would swap cameras with other guests as each group posed. Sometimes waiting till someone came along to have their pic taken.


The Dick Tracy movie starring Warren Beatty as Dick Tracy was everywhere at MGM in 1991. There were Dick Tracy souvenirs, cars on display and even a stage show. My sons favorite souvenir was a radio watch. It didn't work as a radio but it did light up. I liked it because it was analog which helped him to learn to tell time. 


Disney had plans for a Dick Tracy attraction that was eventually scrubbed. The film was just not as successful as they had planned and all vestiges of Dick Tracy slowly faded from The Studios.eat flashbacks!

Do you remember the Dick Tracy movie? What did you think?

Have a Disney Day!
