    ABC Soap Opera Bistro

    My family and I were fortunate enough to have dined at the Soap Opera Bistro during it's short run. I really do wish it had been successful because it was such a fun experience. Lordy, it has been such a long time ago and my memory is not so great but I do remember that even though I was the...

    Jeff Reitz holds new Disneyland consecutive attendance record

    Wow! He has been pretty dedicated! I'd be happy to just get back again once every few years.

    What do you wish were in Downtown Disney?

    Some sort of mini mart/convenience store/dollar store to pick up random things you might need like socks, bandaids, diaper wipes, hair ties, rolaids, etc. My family would really love to see Rainforest Cafe come back.

    Attractions you DON’T want to ride again

    I have ridden Guardians of the Galaxy once when it was TOT. It is THE one ride I will never go on again. I have never gotten around to riding Pixar Pal-A-Round. If I ever rode one of the swinging gondolas I have a feeling it would likely be a one and done ride and I could probably also add it...

    Beware of Hitchhiking Aroma Therapy!

    May have to check it out. I wouldn't mind my home smelling like the Haunted Mansion... especially since I have been missing Disneyland so much lately.

    Hotels in order of proximity?

    Anaheim Desert Inn is also missing and should be one of the closest ones.

    Halen and Hendrix guitars

    Those are some pretty neat items. Having been a fan of Captain EO, I have to say that my favorite is the Michael Jackson chair.

    "Sherry E"

    I saw where you got her tribute page set up. Great idea. I am planning to leave a post when I have a bit more time. Sherry actually had 2 Facebook pages, one for Disney friends (Sherry Edie) and one for friends she thought had less interest in Disney. For anyone looking for the memorial page it...

    Sherry E

    Apologies for not making it back sooner to answer questions. I guess I should have labeled the photo when I posted it! Thankfully, Mary Jo was able to point our who was who. I am glad people seemed to enjoy the picture. It would be nice if some others posted pictures too. I couldn't possibly be...

    Sherry E

    deejdigsdis said it correctly when saying that Sherry had the most amazing gift when it came to writing. She also delighted in sharing her knowledge and love of Disneyland with everyone. I don't think there was a Disneyland related question she couldn't answer and she probably had a photo of...

    "Sherry E"

    Thank you for letting us know. Sherry and I became friends here so long ago I can't even remember,, maybe back all the way to 2008. We exchanged quite a lot of Disney info and Disney love over the years. We also became friends on Facebook and have kept in touch over the years. Our last message...

    Wish We Were Walkin' Down Main Street: A non-Trip Report

    Well, having been to Disneyland over the last 15 years (mostly for 2 week trips) my family and I switched up one year and made our first trip to Europe in 2014. After that we were hooked! Since it's considerably a more expensive trip than Disneyland we have been alternating between the 2...

    Wish We Were Walkin' Down Main Street: A non-Trip Report

    What a sweet celebration for you to have planned for your parents! :thumbsup2 So while it didn't work out according to plan hopefully the delayed trip will be just as awesome whenever it eventually can happen. Bet they will be extra surprised when all the other friends and family show up too...

    Calls to retheme Disneyland's Pinocchio ride?!

    There seems to be absolutely nothing safe from offending someone these days. What is really sad though is that because of complaints from a few the majority will lose something that has been enjoyed as it has been for many years. Gone are the days when there was wisedom in knowing that you can't...

    Time to Remember Splash Mountain - The Splash-tronaut Photo Thread

    Thanks for sharing the video. We are a pretty quirky family so we have always laughed at Ernest. Sharing a few of our Splash Mountain photos from over the years... My husband and son 2015. I usually hang out with our daughter who is scared of heights so I seldom end up riding Splash. Love it...

    Disneyland’s GoPro Policy

    I searched google for Disneyland rules and didn't get anything but the following message popped up for Disney World. Guessing the policy would likely be the same. "GoPros are allowed at Disney World and allowed on all Disney Rides." From Disneyland official park rules under Prohibited Items...

    Splash Mountain- a safe post

    Thank you for clarifying. After replying and then reading TikiTikiFan's post I was second guessing whether I should have posted my thoughts. My intent was only to share my own experience so as to emphasis what a fond memory the movie was to me and maybe bring a bit of thought provoking...

    Splash Mountain- a safe post

    I remember seeing this movie in the theater as a child. I was mesmerized by the animated characters who had been so naturally inserted in with the human characters. To this day I still love the combination and think it was an amazing accomplishment of Walt Disney. I also still love the story as...
