Disney Gallery is Closing - Visit Soon

[flippyshark]

Daveland is a pretty amazing source for Disneyland photos. Still, it's also an object lesson in just how much the show lighting adds to the atmosphere of the figures and sets in the rides. Most of his pictures appear to have been taken with a VERY bright flash, and make everything look kind of tawdry. Fun to browse through for sure, but I'm glad I wasn't in the same boat-doom buggy-catepillar etc.

I'll consider this rumor until I see a press release - somebody got all foamed at the mouth on another board claiming that a "manager in plaid" CONFIRMED that the Disney Gallery is becoming Cinderella Suite West. Those "managers in plaid" are wonderful fonts of misinformation...

Not a press release but I called to see if I could get balcony seating for Fantasmic and the girl I said they were told no more balcony seating after July. I asked her about the rumor (I called it a rumor) and she said that they were told it was closed for refurbishment with no reopen date and there was no more balcony seating after July. Take it for what you will.

And no, we did not get seats. 1 seat here and there. Bummer - we wanted to take a Fantasmic virgin to see it from up there. And we've never seen it from up there. Oh well.

I can't speak to the yes/no of the Gallery closing but I do know that I have concierge level ressies for the end of July and got a call saying they can't offer seats on the balcony any more and did I want riverside instead. When I asked why all I got was the tap dance that "they" were told the balcony was unavailable for the dates I asked for and I totally did the timeline so that lends a bit of hmmm to the story for me.

Which one? There is one in the foreground with a more randomized pattern or the person a couple of rows in with a more geometric pattern.

And when is the bouffant hairdo gonna make a comeback? The chick in yelloe is hot!

The one in the foreground. I think the geometric one is a woman.

I wasn't (and still am not) sure - this photo looks like the sixties and it could be either male or female.

I think it's a woman. And it's amazing that the only way to date these pictures on Main Street is to look at the hair and clothing styles. Shows how little that part of the park changes (on the out side).
