Submarine Voyage - LoT Inaugural Ride!

[Mousey Girl]

Ok, I think I got my wires crossed. I thought it was in front of the Monorail Station in DTD at 8?

If not, then The Boy and I will meet up inside the Park, near the Subs shortly after 8. For some reason he thinks food in the morning is important to his well being.

It was 1998 when Disneyland grounded the submarine fleet, calling it costly and dated. Then park President Paul Pressler, leader of the park bean-counters, wanted the ride shut down because it hogged space, proved too expensive to maintain and cycled riders through too slowly.
But the ride had its champions, including Marty Sklar, then Disney's creative chief. He publicly threatened to lie down on the busy street that fronts Disneyland to prevent the subs from being deep-sixed. It was a rare case of an internal Walt Disney Co. dispute being thrust into the public eye.
"Oh, I said it," Sklar said. "I meant it. I'm sure glad I didn't have to throw myself across Harbor Boulevard…. I never gave up."

I find this excerpt a tad more interesting

With long lines anticipated, park executives are devising ways to keep guests occupied: They'll be selling extra snacks (cheddar fish crackers) and handing out activity guides. And the Finding Nemo will remain open for up to 2 1/2 hours after the park closes, adding up to what Disneyland calls an "eighth day" in the week.
