[@majkus]

Make no mistake: you hard-working cast members and especially the cast's ability to interact with the customers is what make Disneyland more than just a 'theme park' like Six Flags or the like (my trip to Disneyland Paris about ten years ago taught me that this may not be done at every park; their characters did nothing but stand in alcoves and pose for pictures with customers). Disneyland has kind of priced itself out of my level of interest in recent years, but nobody does what Disneyland (and Disney World) do quite as well. As much artistic integrity as one can reasonably hope for from a mega-corporation. Incidentally, I think that the interactive cast participation, which was not present before, say, 1975, was partly an influence from the Southern California Renaissance Faire (which stressed that sort of thing as a major point of distinction) in the 1970s and 1980s. Certainly some people from Faire were also on the creative staff for Disney during those years. And the musicians I played with at Faire one year were unavailable the next year because they were performing in the Disneyland band. Shared DNA.

I know the feeling that you had to witness so many mind-blowing wonders. I went to Disney World in 2011 when I was 64. I felt like a kid again. I spent 2 weeks, roomed there, and never got the chance to go to every attraction or ride every ride. Without question one of the highlights of my life.

[@ct6852]

That sounds like so much fun. Did you get a season pass or something?

[@holisecleveland2859]

No, I paid for the 2 weeks stay and park. Ate at many world restaurants and rode many rides and adventures. It cost us over $2,600 for the stay and park, not including the restaurants or trinkets and such. The whole thing with flights and goodies was close to 5 grand. We were living in Baton Rouge, La. at the time. If we lived closer the park and such would have been cheaper. I do not know what a season pass would cost. If you get a chance, you should go = put it at the top of your Bucket List. You can go on line to Disney World and see the costs of different packages and make reservations keeping in mind that it is less expensive and less crowded.@@ct6852

So glad you enjoyed! I live close enough to know it's 9:30pm when I hear the distant rumble of the fireworks, but Disneyland has become so expensive I haven't visited since the Star Wars section was added. So thanks for the glimpse. Star Tours predates the rest, but I see they've changed the "adventure." And dear old Space Mountain, the best ride when I was a kid, isn't really that fast or scary- with the lights on! I've been through it on the Peoplemover (showing my age) when it was being renovated. After they added that heart-pumping soundtrack about 20 years ago, the ride suddenly felt MUCH, much faster! :)

[@shadowkissed2370]

Wait they do the lights on Space Mountain now? It has been so long since I left Cali and so much longer since I have been to Disneyland. I remember going as a teenager with my boyfriend's family. He had a little sister, maybe around 7 years old, that road space mountain with me, it was both our first time. She did not make a sound on that ride. I had to reach out to her periodically because I was terrified she had fallen out.

No you can’t ride it with the lights on but back when they had the people moved if you were on it and it was down you could get a glimpse with the lights on. It’s a trip.

My first trip to Disneyland was in 1956 brought there by my Grandparents. Disneyland itself was much different then and most of the rides are long gone replaced by modern technology and more sophisticated rides but they were magical to us. If you can imagine it, Disneyland was basically out in the country and was surrounded by strawberry fields and there were only a few small motels around the park and we stayed in one. I was just a young boy from a small town in Texas and it was all new and exciting to me but to get to stay in a motel, total luxury! TV was new to our little town but us kids we did get to watch the Mickey Mouse Club and weekly Walt Disney Presents program at night, so as kids Disney was about as good as it could get and a trip to Disneyland was above anything I could ever hope for. Well that was many years ago before any of you including Mom and Dad were born but the whole point of this post is to tell you how much I enjoyed watching your trip to Disneyland.

these kids will grow up with some amazing memories. these are the kind of children you hardly see in America. disciplined, well-mannered and i haven’t seen them throw a tantrum once. Thank You NZ family for sharing us your experience at D-Land and hope you enjoy the other attractions here in America. Be sure to check out Universal Studios in California!!

I probably go once every couple years now. This will be a very happy memory for you guys :) enjoy the rest of your trip.

Getting that Saber home in one piece was probably a challenge.

For real. And they're not cheap, too. I think they're almost $200.

It’s so nice to see Disneyland from someone else’s eyes. To see the wonder and excitement for the first time. When you walked through the entrance I was immediately taken back to the sounds & the smells that hit you, letting you know you’re in the Happiest Place on Earth. Hungry Bear Restaurant!!! My family and I used to eat there while we watched people on the canoes. I grew up in So Cal so I used to go to Disneyland 2-3 times a per year. My 8th trip was to Disneyland, I performed in Disneyland parades, and my Senior Prom was at the Disneyland hotel. Disney had such a huge impact on my younger brother that we just celebrated his 48th birthday 2 days ago & it was Mickey themed. He even got Disney collectibles for his bday, including a replica of the Disneyland sign from when we were kids. We live in Washington state now, and up until the pandemic he had a Disneyland Season Pass. My Dad passed unexpectedly last year, so the times we spent together At Disneyland hold a special place in my heart!!
