What’s Your Disney Thing?

How could I forget Goat Trick?!! Or, if you can snag the back row on Big Thunder, looking backwards the whole time (really nausiating!)

Newer on Big Thunder, if you "snag" the front row, bloodcurdling screams of horror when you go through the "death cave."

Ah, red long johns. Long gone.

Sitting on the porch on Main Street to watch people leave and, if you can stay late, trying the invisibility cloak that guards that same porch (i.e., Disneyland staff will let you sit there forever, even if they get to hosing down the streets at 3am!)

OMG, before cell phones - and for decades - the meeting spot was Snow White Wishing Well on the hour. That song ingrained in all the brains of my pre-cellphone Disneyland pals.

The recent revival of the Golden Horseshoe Revue reminded me we used to watch it from "Roy's Box" as a must. (The one opposite of Walt's Box, though there was never any inkling Roy ever sat there - hehehe)

Sinking boats on Small World and Pirates before Unsinkable Molly Brown boats were installed.

Backwards on the big Splash Mountain drop was a thing for a while.

Oh, le sigh, le sigh.

Ah, I always wondered what your system was before phones. If I ever get my time machine I'll be able to stop by and say hi.

Also don't forget ISM Glasses on Space Mtn.
