Now & Then – Walt Disney World Edition

Similar to the first post of this type: each of these 20 pictures were taken in the same location, though at least 20 years apart from one another. Additionally, each picture below was taken somewhere in Walt Disney World. I’ve tried to get as close to the original location where possible. (In some cases, buildings were built or foliage was installed that blocked the view entirely.)

Click and drag the white slider on each to compare the then (on the left, or on the top, as appropriate) to the now (on the right, or on the bottom, as appropriate).
