50-Hour Party for the 50th - What Will You Do? - Page 4

Oh, as it's co-creator, I LOVE the decades idea, and think that it's perfect for large groups who want to participate in either Wave 1 on Saturday or Wave 2 on Sunday.

But rounding out those big attractions with more sentimental favorites (Teacups, Carousel, Train or Twain) or big shows that just missed the cut (Tiki), or even trying to complete the roster of every Disneyland attraction - those are things that can be filled in around the Big Waves of Disney Decades by smaller groups, cozy couples, or even loner geeks.

Or here's a brainstorm I had over lunch: Instead of the Disneyland Top 10, how about The Disneyland Dozen - featuring two from each Magic Kingdom Decade plus two that have been there since opening day! Two waves of 6 attractions each. Manageable and fun.

Now we can include Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room in its rightful place as a highlight of Disneyland's First Decade. We can then celebrate the new additions to The Jungle Cruise as an opening day attraction, and the one that's had the most revisions and additions since then. And we can add another sentimental favorite from opening day - - what will it be? The Mark Twain, the Disneyland Railroad, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Peter Pans' Flight, The Mad Tea Party, King Arthur Carrousel??? Oooh, so many good originals to choose from - that we simply must add Opening Day attractions as its own "category" separate and apart from the subsequent five decades of Disneyland development.

It's a toss-up, between the Carousel, the train, and the cups....

Probably the Train, to pay homage to Walt. Plus, we can sit for a while.

Rope drop dash to the castle gates where we ride all the Fantasyland Darkrides

I vote down Pan. It's nearly my favorite, but I don't think we want to brave that line in a group again. All the others are swell, though.

Cups, Caurosel, Train. I want them ALLLLLLLLLL! Besides, the train is a wonderful way to take a break for a bit.

The mistake with Pan was doing it a 1 in the freaking afternoon. If we do it in the morning, it shouldn't be a problem.
