Submarine Voyage - LoT Inaugural Ride!

innerSpaceman · 05-28-2007, 06:58 PM

Yes, the return of the Submarine Voyage with its new Finding Nemo theme is the most exciting thing to happen at Disneyland since the 50th, and the first big (practically) new E-Ticket since Indiana Jones in 1995!!!

I'm sure we are all anxious to ride ... and for those of us who'd like our first ride to be with other Swankers - - we have some plannin' to do. When can most of us meet up for a submarine meet?

Assuming none of us win the AP Lottery for sub spaces during June preview days, the ride officially opens to the public on Monday, June 11, 2007. Understandably, jobs prevent most people from being at the Park at opening on a weekday. And we all understand that being at the Park at opening would be the best way to avoid an unbearable queue wait.

So, let me throw out some pros and cons of weekend dates, and weeknight visits.

The first Saturday that the attraction is open, June 16 - - happens to be a day that Ghoulish Delight, Cadaverous Pallor, NirvanaMan, Babette, and zapppop cannot go (jobs, blackout dates, other obligations). That Sunday, the 17th, is Father's Day ... and many of those same people cannot go to Disneyland on that holiday, which must be spent with family.

Soooooo ... the popular options dwindled to either waiting till the following weekend (June 23 or 24), when the attraction will have already been open nearly 2 weeks ... OR, biting the bullet and hitting it one evening after work during the opening week.

Discuss.

(oh, and vote ... a preliminary poll should narrow things down)
