TBT: This is me in 1983. My mom was so proud she found this picture! Proud to be raised a Disneyand kid!

And you weren't scared and running away from such big teeth. Brave adorable child! - TikiBird 164.7 #2085 4:44PM

Adorable. You had angel baby hair (you know...like all the pictures of baby angels). - DisneyGrandma 336.1 #442 4:45PM

Yes! My hair was practically white till I was at least 10. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 4:47PM

So did my youngest daughter. It was whispy and very light. Sooo sweet. - DisneyGrandma 336.1 #442 4:50PM

I am having a baby girl very soon and I am really curious to see what her hair is like. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 6:55PM

I created a calendar with all the September attraction and eatery closures. DM me with your email address if you would like a copy. I am a visual person and needed it all lined out in one place. **Indy closure is now on the official Disneyland list.

I just printed it out. You did an amazing job. Thank you. - aidensmama 336.3 #441 4:20PM

that's so nice of you..did you see my post of all of the holiday closures? It was so long I thought it might upset people when they got finger scrolling cramps. lol. - Linzee 515.1 #227 2:50PM

Yes! I used your post and other sources to add to my list. I compared those to what is on the official list and have highlighted the "rumored" closures in red since they aren't currently listed. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 2:58PM

I am such a geek! I am not even going to Disneyland in September! I just like crowd patterns and statistics too. **hangs head in shame** - AKMouse 376.5 #363 2:59PM

Calling all Lurkers! Have you considered posting a Google picture just to be known in the Lounge? There is a better way! Post comments and let your name be known! Start right here and jump in the conversation! Today's get the know lurkers question is: what Disney movie has most influenced your life and why? Ready go!

I like you. This is a better idea than googled pics. - JenInWonderland 1025.1 #86 12:05PM

Thanks! It is sometimes hard to contribute when you don't live nearby and don't have live pictures. I think it is interesting to find out who is really out there. :) - AKMouse 376.5 #363 12:08PM

Lol not those pics Sue! Haha 😂 - TheNewTrent 508.1 #232 3:06PM

i think Aladdin. it taught me that stealin is ok so long as its just an apple or bread and that i give half to starving kids. jk. its been really influential with my flying carpet research... breakthrough soon. i liked aladding because i think it was the first Disney Movie that a guy could sing to. i dont remember the classics or little mermaid having too many aongs that a young hero could sing (lil mermaid had sebastian's songs, but i didnt like pretending to be a crab) - Radius 501.1 #236 1:38PM

I try to be an active commenter! But I really don't get to the parks enough to post live pics or even add wait times 😥my favorite and most influential movie is A Goofy Movie! Not only does it have my favorite songs, it describes my adolescent relationship with my mother to a T. Whenever I watch it I shake my head in remembrance of my tennage rebellion. And then I get all teary eyed when Goofy says "you may not be a little boy anymore, but you'll always be my son!!" 😭 - angelle 7.1 #8074 7:21PM

Aw, now I want some Hi Dad Soup, lol 😂 - Spoonful_O_Sugar 435.8 #283 7:27PM

What DLR eating establishments closed for off-season? I don't want to get my heart set on Big Thunder Ranch BBQ if they aren't going to be open when I go.

I don't think any close during non-peak season. Its just park hours that are cut back - BaseballMickey_CM 2789.1 #16 11:56AM

Good to know. For some reason I always feel like I am missing out on food places. I always end up at the same few spots. I am determined to dine out of my comfort zone on my next trip. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 12:08PM

Calling all lurkers! Do you have stalker level knowledge of your favorite MWers but your user name has never hit the Lounge? This is the post for you! Our get to know our lurkers question of the day is: What year was your first visit to Disneyland? Estimations or generalities are allowed for those who can't remember or don't want to show their age. Ready go!

Haha love this post! I try not to lurk but I don't go often enough to have much to add. I just have a passion for Disney and require a Disney supplement to sooth my "ears" shaped heart. I truly enjoy seeing all of the fabulous photos. My first trip 1987 (2 months old). Thanks all of you "regulars" for keeping us all updated! - RaisedByWalt 131.1 #2568 4:03PM

I've been coming since the beginning (I was 4 in 1955). Don't mind showing my age  - debbiev 58.6 #3585 3:34PM

How awesome to have been able to see the park in it's beginning and through all of it's glorious transformations. - Goofdog 169.8 #2009 3:36PM

My parents are both that way as well. They both went as young children within the first week of the park opening. They have been going ever since. My mom still comes to the park with us. Now we take 3 generations to share together. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 3:37PM

That's wonderful!!! How special to be a first generation Disneyland'er!! You grew up right along with the Happiest Place on Earth!! - GibsonGirl87 281.2 #719 3:53PM

#Retro Day: I may be breaking the retro day rules but these are not Googled pictures. These came from a book my Mom bought in 1963. I loved the Plaid and the old Rocket to the Moon pictures!

These pics are cool and fun to see no matter where they came from. The pic in the lower right, is that Mission to Mars?? I vaguely remember riding it and I think that's what the inside looked like. - MsStarlite 201.6 #1599 11:58PM

I believe in 1963 it was called Douglas Rocket to the Moon. Mission to Mars is in Epcot. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 12:06AM

Ahhh ok. I just remember being inside that round chamber and that the ride was sponsored by McDonnell Douglas which was the company my dad worked for. One of the few rides he ever went on with us! - MsStarlite 201.6 #1599 1:19AM

Retro Day: This is the cover of my Mom's program for her Grad Nite in 1967. Entertainment included Dobie Gray, The Aggregation, The Regents, and The Aubrey Twins. Some lucky Grad won a 1967 Mercury Cougar!

Calling all lurkers!! Have you been a MW member for multiple months and have yet to make your presence known? Now is your chance! Today's get to know the lurkers question is: how many times have you been to Disneyland so far this year? Ready go!

I haven't gone to Disneyland but I've gone to knotts like 50+ times. - chris. 2507.1 #24 10:01PM

welcom3 lurkers!!! or watchers or what I really call you ---MW family we don't know yet! One request, even if you are too shy to meetup or post, when you are at the parks, please post wait times, it helps everyone else and keeps MW the most accurate. I met a lot of watchers at glow with the show, so many use the app but forget to post wait times so I thought I would remind everyone. And at the next "event" i plan on planning a "first time or shy person meet up." to help with the jitters!!! Hope to meet you all sonn! - secretagentangel 659.2 #156 10:50PM

If you could taken one person to Disneyland (living or dead) who would you take and why? I would take Adolf Hitler. Strap him in a Small World boat and force him to ride till he got the point.

I would want to see DL through Walt's eyes. - sewedna 84.3 #3214 11:56PM

I would take my father. He passed away in 1959 when I was 5. He is the one who started our love of Disney. He and my mom took me and my sister to Disneyland in 1955 after it opened. We have gone every year, except when he passed, since then. I would love him to see how the park has changed and grown. - Diznimom 211.8 #1452 10:30AM

In 1961 there was a plan for a street off of Main Street called Liberty Street with Edison Square attached. I find it interesting that they printed these ideas and not all of them ended up taking place.

Would had been cool! But no room for parade storage! - azcam08 203.2 #1580 1:38PM

I like the generically named "street" lol - ladylikesdisney 921.5 #95 1:37PM

They did call it Main Street but the "Main" is on a flag on the other side of the street. You just can't see it in my photo. It does look funny though. - AKMouse 376.5 #363 1:57PM
