meeting your idol
When I was little (maybe 3 or 4 years old), my parents (Disney fanatics) would bring me to Disneyland at least twice a year. Every time I went, I would wear the Snow White dress my mom had made me, in hopes of meeting my idol. One day, my dad and I sat down on a park bench while my mom visited the restroom, Anyway, my dad got up to go to the drinking fountain accross the street, and when he turned...

be careful what you grab...
My brother went to Disnyland with his friend for his friend’s birthday. They saw Capain EO, and when one of the little, fuzzy, fury characters came on screan, my brother’s friend tried to reach out and grab it. He was surprised when he really DID grab it! But he really just grabbed the hair of the guy who was in front of him. He didn’t know untill the guy whose hair he touched...

Haunted Star Trader
In the attic for Star Trader, it is supposedly haunted. There is a white wall and on that wall, in a lighter shade of white says “Helter Skelter.” They tried to repaint many times, but it just came back. Not only that, but a worker was up there getting stuffed animals to take down to the store. She was throwing them over her shoulder. But when she turned around to take them down, what...

Disney makes you young again
Want absolute proof that Disneyland makes you a kid again? One of my most memorable trips there was last December. Three generations of my family went, including myself (19 at the time), my parents, my grandmother on my mother’s side, and my grandfather on my father’s side. My grandfather, 90 years old and a very charming person, has trouble walking sometimes, and so used a wheelchair...

Not so scary star tours
When i was little I used to be so scared of going into Star Tours because of all the aliens and stuff, but when my mom took me to Disneyland for my 6th birthday she talked me into going on it. She also had bought this bright pink little jacket for me to wear that day. While in line when comming up to the first droid with the eyes that look like a pair of banoculars I stood on my tippy-toes to look...

Rainy Day Disney Magic
Going to Disneyland on a rainy day is the best!!! Our family had a family reunion at “The Happiest Place on Earth” about ten years ago. It was in the middle of the week and so the park closed at 7:00 p.m. We woke up that morning and realized it was raining pretty hard! We weren’t sure the trip to Disneyland was going to happen in lieu of the rain. In the end we decided to brave...

Your Money at work
I hear some people (I have to admit, even myself sometimes) complain about the high prices at Disneyland, but what everyone has to remember, is a lot of that money must go behind the scenes to things the normal law-biding tourist doesn’t even see. Case and point- I was in Disneyland last weekend in line for the Matterhorn. Then out of the blue, a gentleman walked up to some kids who looked...

Roy Disney
Back in the early days of Disneyland, when I was about 12, I would sit with Roy Disney on the porch of the Town Hall and he would tell me stories about Disneyland and Mickey Mouse. Every time I went there, he was sitting on the porch and I would go up and talk to him. I didn’t know who he was until I was about 15, when i saw a picture of him and realized who he was. He was very nice to me...

The last to leave
One night a friend and I wanted to be the last people to leave Disneyland. It was a 6:00 pm closing so we wouldn’t be there that late (as opposed to the Park closing at midnight and the last people leaving at 1 am or so). We decided to sit on the benches at the Main Street Train Station, a prime location for watching parades. We sat there and talked and watched the crowd slowly diminsh....

Remain seated Please
When I was on Pirates in July, we approached the first drop, and this fool in the front STANDS UP!. Well, we stopped right in front of the talking skull & crossbones at the head of the drop, and I tell you, his dialog went like…
“Psssst! Avast there… it be too late to…. SIR, WILL YOU PLEASE SIT DOWN IN THE BOAT?! THE RIDE WILL NOT MOVE UNTIL EVERYONE IS SEATED!…...

Magic Moment
On my last trip to DL, I went with my girlfriend (fiance) and my mom. On our last night there, we had stopped by one of the restaraunts..I cant remember if it was the mint jupep or the french market. But anyways, we had sat down to eat, and it was already dark. A young cast member who was handicapped noticed us sitting there went inside and got a lighter and lit the candles for us and offered to...

Gotta go to Pirates
This story is about me when I was about four. My family went to Disneyland about once a year. One time we were walking along and someone walking along said that Pirates of the Carribean was open (it had been closed most of the day). Anyways, as soon as I heard that I shot off running. I just kept running and it took my dad a while to catch up to me and I was just a short little kid. I don’t...

Kissed the treehouse she climbed in
There once was a boy named David Davis who was in love with me. It was his 8th grade trip to Disneyland, and my brother went along. A few months earlier, I had gone to disneyland, and made the rounds to all the lands with my two best friends since pre-school, Kristin and Charlie, and we had visited the Tarzan Treehouse. David and my little brother climbed the stairs to Tarzan’s living...
