Why pay $45 for something you can do yourself on any given day?

Agreed. In fact, I've already done that. (We also rode both parking trams.)

Chris, Andris and Flub did Geek Quest - all the attractions in reverse chronological order. I stayed at home in bed.

Prizes? At $45/person they'd better be pretty darn good prizes.

Heheh, it reminds me of the game I was devising for the LoT ... only of course, mine was going to cost a lot less per person ... and be a real Road Rally ... not something done within the confines of Disneyland.

I had to postpone it, dear readers, because of too much going on this summer ... but my good ideas never die - - so look for this event to come more cheaply and much more adventurishly to a message board much nearer you - - perhaps Spring 2007!

Oh, and I was sorta planning a Geek Quest II for this coming Saturday at the Park ... when they will be opening at 6:30 a.m. Any of you folks can still do it, be my guest, and FOR FREE.

In honor of the Pirates Premier that night, the gimmick of this Geek Quest would be to go on every Disneyland attraction that has been substantially changed, in the chronological order of the change.

So, Peter Pan, Mr. Toad and all the Fantasyland dark rides that were updated in 1983 (and '84) would be in, but Pinocchio would be out.

Space Mountain would be waaaay in, but Splash Mountain might be out. Are new logs a substantial change? Up to you to decide.
What about Indy? New snake good enough to qualify?

Certainly Harold being added to the Matterhorn makes the cut. No need to worry whether the two-train bobsled cars make it a qualifier.

Most of the Park's attractions have been changed, so most rides would be included. But the good news is ... no need to ride Winnie the Pooh!

Alas, I can't make it to the Park that early this Saturday. But if anyone wants a FREE attraction quest, with a theme appropos to the giant changes about to befall Pirates of the Caribbean .... get to the Park at the crack o' dawn and have yourselves a good ol' time!

It's interesting how no one on MiceChat appears to be pointing this out.

Awwww - I was hoping for an early AM geeking with you - if nothing else to argue over the order of attractions

Oh well - Pirates III premier perhaps?

Not that it matters to me who worked on it, anyway.

Actually, it isn't clear:

Our very own Kevin Yee of MiceAge was the original architect of ADD Quest as well as the first Mouse Adventures.

Not real clear if he is or isn't helping on this.

Not that it matters much.

People on MiceChat know I've ridden every ride in the park in one day?

Spooky.
