The Carousel of Progress is a classic Disney attraction designed and ridden by Walt Disney himself, something not many Walt Disney World attractions can claim.

It has seen many updates throughout the years in its three locations, most recently in the 1990s, and another update is likely on the horizon soon. But no matter which version you watch, you are always watching a show about the evolution of the American family along with developing technology.
