As I was thinking about Disneyland's 57 yrs, I reminisced about my earliest ride around 1974. I was 5 and so scared that this thing would really shrink me...happy days.

That was such a cool ride as a kid. The imagination factor. And that fishing lines with dripping oil kind of fountain thing in the entry was great. - Westcoast

Thank you for posting this, I absolutely *loved* this ride!! It closed when I was 14, so I have a ton of memories and my favorite part was how freezing they made the giant snowflake room. Man, how I miss it! - Nala
