Happy 8th Birthday, Disney's California Adventure! - Page 2

Wow, time flys when you're having fun, no?

It seems like just a couple of years ago that I was visiting DCA about a week before it opened to the public. There are so many things that were open then that haven't been open for so long that the park I visited 8 years ago is already gone.

But I'm very excited about the changes. While I will be sad to see the Golden Gate Bridge gone, the new entrance sounds wonderful. I know the new gates will look exactly like Disney Studios, but the look is from a building that actually excisted in LA during the time period the time park is adopting so it makes since. I love that building, it was also in the movie Xanadu.

Maybe something with peanut butter and apples.

I'd have to agree with Alex about the Fantasia ice cream.

It looks like I haven't been keeping up with the changes, sad to hear the Golden Gate will be gone. I guess I better check out what else they have in store. I did hear the Mickey ears aren't going to be on the loop anymore, I kind of liked those.

Overall, I think the planned changes and many, new additions are great and will finally give Disney's California Adventure the love, respect, money and attention it deserves.

I'll miss those things, too, DD. :: sigh :: I do hope the new changes work out.

Yeah, I liked that, too.

I like DCA and I want it to be all it can be.
