12World Of Motion Memory

      Well this email will keep World Of Motion going some more too.
       
          I am sharing one of my memories of one of the greatest attractions in EPCOT. The World Of Motion.
       
          My family use to go to Matiland, Florida (north of Orlando) almost every other Thanksgiving to visit my mother's Mom and brother. And we would always go to Walt Disney World for 3 days. This was back in the 80's. On our first day we would always visit the Magic Kingdom. After closing the Magic Kingdom down (park closed at 7:00 PM) we would beat feet for the monorail to visit EPCOT for 2 more hours. EPCOT closed at 9:00 PM at the time. We would hit Spaceship Earth, Horizons and World Of Motion. Everytime the same 3 attractions. This became a tradition each and every time my family went to WDW since EPCOT opened. My family LOVED WOM so very much. I myself loved how the attraction would go outside for the first part. And the use of Audio Animatronics was amazing. I would always have a funny feeling going on WOM.
          I took my soon to be wife on her first visit to Walt Disney World in 1999. The last time I had been to WDW was back in 1994 before leaving for the Navy. I couldn't believe my eyes and ears when I heard WOM had been torn down and replaced with this wannabe attraction called Test Track. And on top of that, I couldn't believe awful it looked. I have yet to ride Test Track. In my heart, WOM was keeping in the traditions of Walt Disney and is an atrocity to have been torn down. This is the same opinion I share the closing of Horizons.
          I was talking with my brother about WDW the other night (we are bother real big Disney Fans) and told him all the attractions that have closed and some of the crazy things Mr. Eisner has done. Told him, "WDW is not the same WDW we grew with."
          Everyone, share you greatest World Of Motion memory with the group. Lets keep the group alive.

      This will keep it going for another 90 days. I like having the pics
      available in the group.
