Grandmother of 5. Been going to Disneyland since it opened in 1955. It\'s become a tradition in our family to go to Disneyland at least once a year. Minnie is my favorite!

My daughter bought this book at a used book sale. Has anyone read it? It looks interesting from what I've read on the jacket. What dark secrets did Walt Disney have? I'm going to keep an open mind as I read this.
I have a bad feeling about this... - martini8668-cm

Supposedly the author writes of Walt's service to the FBI as a secret informant and other not to Disney like dealings Walt had in business and his personal life. Don't know if any of what this guy writes is true, but I'm going to read it anyway. - Diznimom

I have read most of these books on Walt Disney, including this one. it ended up in my recycle pile, it seems to be written by someone who has many issues with Walt being successful. it made me grumpy when I read it. :-( - secretagentangel

Angels for Abby update: After getting the OK to travel from her doctor, Abby and her family headed down to DL yesterday. Today she is headed to the park, plus it's her birthday! She'll have a birthday lunch at Ariel's Grotto at 11:30. If any of you are going to the park and happen to see her, please wish her a Happy Birthday. I know that may be impossible with the crowds, but miracles can happen.
Oh how exciting! - Princess Daisy

I cannot believe what just happened to my nephew's wife and son! While my nephew's wife and son were waiting for my nephew to return from getting a Dole Whip, some family (parents with two teenage sons) called my nephew's son a "big tard". Nate, my nephew's son has Asperger's and is big for his age. He is not a "big tard"! He's very sweet and smart, knows quite a lot about Star Wars. It's a good t More...
I so understand how frustrating and upsetting that is. I work with kids and they honestly can't think beyond themselves. I'm so sorry this happened. I'm hoping it didn't let it get to him and he knows that people are out there that don't know their own self worth and find it easy to destroy someone else's to feel like they do. I'm not one to wish bad things upon people, even if they do such horrible things, but I am someone who prays that they one day see their wrong in their actions and stop before hurting anyone else. Hope you erase this from your vacation and just focus on the great moments you had. Hope you safely return home with a smile of all the good that did happen. - MarshaMouse

I'm very sorry to hear this. I hope you don't let it ruin your night. Those people are lowlifes and frankly I feel sorry for them. Being that nasty is a sad way to live. But since we try to keep the lounge vacation friendly though, I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this. (Then again, the rules are drastically different now.) - DisneyFanZoe

Another Angels for Abby update. The family will be at the park from Sunday, March 24 to Wednesday, Mar 28. They will be staying at the Paradise Pier and on Abby's birthday, March 24 she will be treated to lunch at Ariel's Grotto at 11:30. Some of you asked for an address to send her a RAK package before the family leaves for DL. The family's address is The Needham Family, P.O. Box 768, Kingsburg C More...
Yes. Green light passes (still a GAC) are made for circumstances such as hers and they are given expedited boarding at most attractions. City Hall would better be able to explain it. - IDVandalSkipperCM

I just wanted to give you all an update on my previous post regarding the donation of funds to help send little Abby Grace to DL for her birthday this month. I just read that an anonymous donor gave the last bit of money to the family to complete the cost of the trip. Also, Abby has started a new regiment of chemo that also caused her to be hospitalized the other night with a fever. Test results s More...
We are praying for her... Is there any way that my family can send a RAK package before her trip? - sluvsm14

I have contacted the family in hopes of getting an address for you. As soon as I hear something I will get back to you. - Diznimom 211.8 #1452 11:13AM

I hope this is the place to post this. One of the teachers at the high school I used to teach at has a young daughter battling cancer. Abby is 5 years old and been fighting this disease for some time. The latest news showed the cancer is still there so she is going to have to undergo another round of chemo. Abby's birthday is coming up in March and her wish is to go back to Disneyland. Make a Wish More...

Does anyone know where the Disney Soda Shoppe is in Hollywood? Is it located by the El Capitan? My daughter and I are going to a Dodgers/Giants game on April 3rd and we'd like to stop there before going to the game.
Thanks for the info and tips. I hope we get into LA early so we can stop there before heading to the game. Oh and by the way, we are big Dodgers fans (boo Giants!). So we will be decked out in Dodger blue when we make this trip. - Diznimom

Sr_Citizen_Space_Ranger has asked me to post this picture of a Disneyland RR ticket he found when going through his sister's belongings. Does anyone have an idea of when this may have been issued? I've never seen this type of ticket before.
never seen this before. What is Holidayland? Disneyland pointe? - Plumiegirl
3322.0 #10 4:40PM
Holiday land used to be where the Matterhorn stands today (I think). - BaseballMickey_CM 2806.5 #16 4:48PM
Wikipedia sayes Holidayland is where the New Orleans station is now.. I should of google first. This is an old ticket, a keeper. - Plumiegirl 3322.0 #10 4:51PM
That's right. There was a place called Holiday Hill (where Indy is today) where the Disneyland Band used to play and where the bandstand used to be - BaseballMickey_CM 2806.5 #16 4:53PM
Holidayland is where The Mickey Mouse Club performed in a Carny Tent.
Might I suggest contacting The Carolwood Pacific group. They would know. - Butterlina

Please send your thoughts and prayers to Sr_Citizen_Space_Ranger. I just received a text from him that his sister is terribly ill. He is on the way to the hospital to be with her.

Need help here. We have a date for when we will be going to DL. I know there is a MW rate we can get at the HOJO. How does it work? Do I have to call the place and ask for the rate? Plus any idea of what the price is? Anyone use the MW rate there. Thanks.
Call their in house reservations and mention MW. If you have an annual pass you can get that discount instead - Villescas8(V8)
