I was born in 64 (April) and don't know if I was there but my parents talk about it a lot. Great pictures.

I too was seven when I first went there. What an awesome sight for a young boy from NEPA! It was like a fantasy land. I mean riding in a new ford mustang through a dinosaur land (Ford Pavillion), A trip into space to see the colonization of the moon and planets (GM Pavillion), a walk through a fishing village, a mountain village and a rain forest (Coke Pavillion) and or course something that still stays with me today in my visits to Disneyworld, A Small World and the Carosel of Progress (GM). I was probably clinically depressed about seeing it once and not being able to get back again. Fortunately I get the same kind of feeling going to DW. Thanks for sharing. How could 44 years pass so quickly?

I was born in 1954...in Flushing. I know the World's Fair was a big thing back then. A couple of years in a row, in elementary school, our class trip was to the World's fair. Each time, my mom said I couldn't go, because we were going to go "as a family". We never went as a family.
