1988

The Looking Back series continues with a look at EPCOT Center in 1988. Some things haven’t changed all that much since that time, while other things have changed quite a bit. Monorail Lime passes Spaceship Earth, as seen from the area near The Land. These days, Monorail Lime’s stripes are green and white instead of green and blue. Not a big change, but still interesting, I think. For several years, the EPCOT Center logo appeared in floral form behind Earth Station, which was what the post-show area behind Spaceship Earth was then called.

This installment of Looking Back takes a look at the Magic Kingdom from July 1988. From comparing these to the 1987 photos, my photography had improved just a bit. And in 1988, there was a big new addition to the Magic Kingdom - Mickey’s Birthdayland. You can’t get this view of Cinderella Castle any more, unless you have a crane. This was taken from the Skyway as it went over Fantasyland.
