Yesterland.com...Who knew? Thanks DLR29!

[LoveThatMouse!]

Last month was my first trip to DLR...the first of MANY more....
(we are closer to WDW), but have now fallen completely IN LOVE w/ DLR.

NOW, thanks to DLR29 who posted on another thread about www.yesterland.com, I can visit Disneyland of yesteryear!!!!

Who knew about this wonderful site????
Everyone, right?

Thanks again DLR29!!!

Yep, I knew. It's directly connected to MiceAge. . . which I don't visit very often so sometimes I forget about it.

 

[DLR29]

You're so welcome. It's such a great site.

That is so cool. How fun to look at all the old attractions. Some you remember, some you don't. Some you miss and some you are glad are gone. LOL

I really miss the Animazement show. I liked that a lot.

I love Yesterland. Glad you've found it.

Kinda makes you wish you could "go back"...

Great website. Brought alot of memories back when I was a kid. Thanks for posting it.

Amazing! Thank you for the flashbacks, I meant to look for a minute and got lost for almost an hour! I will definately be visiting there again!

Yesterland is great. I just wish I hadn't gone through everything over there a dozen times!

I have been visiting Yesterland.com for well a long time. Well before they partnered with Miceage.

In reading about the Rocket Rods (which neither DH nor I ever saw), I ended up with a question.

When did Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters open? Was it only in '05?

 

[disneychrista]

Yes it opened up as part of the 50th anniversary.

I miss the rocket rods. I have fond memories of it because it was one of the few rides that my youngest actually liked. She even requested to ride in front.

Forget the Rocket Rods, I forever miss the People Mover. I love that MK still has their version, it's not as neat as DLs extinct PM but atleast it survives at WDW.

 

[Grumpy'sWife4Ever]

I miss the People Mover and the cool "Tron" effect - so high tech! I also miss Mission to Mars (those inflating seats were kind of a pleasant sensation) and the sky cars, they were the best way to get a view of (most of) the park......
Also gone but not forgotten - the Country Bear Jamboree! I loved those hillbilly bears......

 

[bumbershoot]

Just at the 50th, wow.

See, what's crazy about that is that was our first trip back as adults (with our 1 year old) in Sept '05. I don't think we went on it, but then DH and DS accidentally went on it in Oct '06 when they tried to get in line for Astro Orbiter. Then I went on it in Sept 07, and we all just figured it had been there for ages!

It's weird, how much I "studied" for that first trip in '05 (just a one day trip so I wanted it to be chockful of goodness), but how very very little I knew, and how much more there is to learn!

After spending hours on that site, I'm all misty about the original Disneyland hotel being torn down .
and don't get me started about seeing that picture of Aunt Jemima with the Navy Sailors....makes me want to cry all over again.
