Leap Day at Disneyland

LSPoorEeyorick · 03-01-2012, 06:33 PM

Word is that some of the staffing problems came from late-shift CMs being stuck in the same traffic as everyone else, causing people to be hours late for their late shift.

I imagine some of the garbage has to do with above-average consumption (as group we bought/refilled more coffee in a few hours than I've consumed in several years.) as with the slipping states of awareness and decision control.) But, yes, they understaffed.

Beyond shared giddiness and unique experiences... I think Mark's onto something. I think on top of all that, we just really missed each other. And spending time in general, let alone in the park. We talked about old memories and jokes, we created brand new ones, and took the opportunity to just revel in our luck and love. I never felt crowded (beyond the ears mob at park open) and I never even felt chilly. A Leap Year Dave Williams miracle, indeed!

That would make sense since they have to travel the same streets. Pictures online show Harbor and Katella backed up for miles too. I'm kind of surprised Anaheim PD didn't try and do some sort of traffic control on the surface streets.

It was unprecedented for sure and if they do it again hopefully they look back on this and learn.

I think the most disappointing part of the evening was the BB being out of Dungeons shrimp.

I think that was definitely the highlight for me. I never get to see you people!
