Quick park report - 10-3-21

[WonkaKid]

I hadn’t planned on making it to the park yesterday but my plans changed and I was able to visit for about 2.5 hours. I leave for NYC — my favorite city in the world — on Wednesday and won’t be back at DL until 10-23.

Nothing special to report, really. Again, I was only there from rope drop until 10:30. However, I was first into the parking structure for the first time ever and I got the very first parking spot! Small victories .

I rode Casey Jr. for the first time in about three years. That was nice and broke up my routing a bit, which I think is important to do on occasion.

I simply couldn’t get into the right mindset with respect to Buzz. I believe that my highest official score for the day was about 1.6 (although I did go over 2,096,000 and my score reset once - so about 3,010,000. But it didn’t count, obviously :-(). After my first ride of the morning, I saw that someone had already won first place with 2,048,000. That’s hard to beat for a few reasons, all of which I’ve mentioned before.

Lastly, my favorite CM at Buzz - Ayah, from Beirut - will leave Disneyland on Wednesday after five years. So it’ll be sad not to see her there again. She’s always been her pleasant and kind.

Pics.

My first-place parking spot!


The tram walkway was empty (for a minute ).

Bonus pics: I went to Ohana Fest on Friday to see Pearl Jam. I had press credentials so I was in front of front row for a bit.

P.S. I also dropped by Capitol Studios on Thursday. It was a surprise visit for my brother and his gf who were in town for a few days. Apologies if I’ve already posted these. It was a busy weekend and I don’t remember who I’ve told what .

The first pic was taken in Studio A. Dylan, McCartney, Sinatra and countless others have recorded in this legendary room.

One last pic. I happened upon this Disneyland section at the Pasadena Antique Mall on Sunday afternoon. Kind of cool.

I'm used to your posts being on the main DL page. Did you post here, or was it moved? I'm not in the habit of scrolling here, but I'll be sure to do it if this is where you are going to be. Safe & happy travels!

I vaguely remember he commented on a different park report that the mods started to move his reports into this subforum, which is why he's posting them here now.

Yes, that’s exactly what happened. Far more people would see/comment on them in the main forum, but… well, I just work here ;-).

And us homebounds are glad you do! Absolutely love your pics and love your reports! I,too, will check over here at the end of month for new trip report. I was wondering where you’d gone…

Enjoy NYC!
