Polynesian Village Pinterest- 1973 & 1982

January 30, 2013 By D Marie 31 Comments

Isn’t Deb amazing?  Doesn’t she continue to challenge, impress and put a smile on our faces?? This week’s Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop with Focused on the Magic made me so happy!  It “forced” me to take a look back over each and every one of DIStherapy’s 296 posts and pick a favorite. Or two.  Or better yet, the favorites of my friends and readers.  By no coincidence, both come from Wordless Wednesday posts.  I think Deb is onto something…

Visit me on Pinterest, I know I’ll be taking Deb’s lead and visiting you.  Aloha!!

    Love vintage photos of Disney! We have stayed at the Polynesian three times and love it – for some reason I didn't think that it had been around that long!

    Love looking back in time. My kids find it hard to believe that once upon a time there were almost no resorts and simply one park at Walt Disney World. Wow, I am feeling old.

      So true Beth, but I tell myself that if Walt Disney World and Disneyland can maintain their youthful verve at THEIR ages, there is hope for us too!!
