Way Back World Showcase

One of the Friendships is docked outside of the Morocco Pavilion in this shot from the 1985 Way Back series. I wonder if Big-Brian can tell us which one it is!

I surmise that the shot was taken from the Ponts des Arts between the France and U.K. Pavilions.

Notice the length of the show building and the bump-out for the screens, curtains and scenery mechanics for the American Adventure.

  1. Hey George,
    As a matter of fact I've been emailing a former watercraft cast member recently and the subject of the original color schemes of the Freindships came up, though this was one I knew before that (and even now I still don't know the original color schemes for all of them)

    This would be Friendship II Rust Orange roof & Window Surround, Blue Pinstripe

  2. Thanks for scanning and posting these EPCOT Center pictures from 1985. Always great to see EPCOT Center in its early years.
