Fantastic photos! :) I love taking pictures of weird little details. I can only assume one of them is from Mike and Sulley's.
Is the '6' from Toy Story? - meridafan  1039.4 #83 8:10AM
most definitely. - nicoleface  1279.7 #65 8:13AM
And I thought that would be the hard one! - MJmouse  242.1 #1091 8:20AM
That's the one I actually took a picture of on my last visit! 😂😂😂 Otherwise, I would have no clue! - meridafan  1039.4 #83 8:32AM
4 is star tours, 2 is indy?, 1 is obviously monsters inc... - nicoleface  1279.7 #65 8:13AM
Nope, the 2 is not from Indy! - MJmouse  242.1 #1091 8:27AM
The one in the middle is from Jurassic Park - CptKirk  697.1 #142 12:57PM

Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. We're trying to figure out the best way to pick a meal. Is it what my niece will enjoy the most, so vicarious enjoyment for the rest of us? Is it the best-tasting food? Best characters? Convenience? Lots of stuff to consider! We know there are no free meals with rum, darnit. ;)
Pirates dinner near Medieval Times. It's not Disney or free, but it has pirates and booze. - Mouse4life  1085.8 #78 3:42PM

It sounds like you've probably done the Cultivating the Magic Tour. If you haven't, I highly recommend it! Beautiful photos :)
Did you know that some of the original trees from opening day are still in the park? Look for the trees that have a series of “ knot holes" around the trunk. You will know them when you see them, many are around rivers of america. - Candy_MakerCM  7.0 #8214 6:24PM

I rode the Lilly Belle last summer. I waited at the Main Street Station at the official opening time and then got to make a reservation. I don't remember if it was a conductor or not. I was given the choice of two times and could request tickets for my whole group (only 3 of us that day). I've learned to only ask at that station about the Lilly Belle. Some CMs don't have the correct information. T  More...
You were given false information. If you go to the Main Street station and speak to a CM, they are more than happy to make a reservation for you, if there's room that day. I have ridden the Lilly Belle, and I am not a Club 33 or any other kind of member. Hope you get to ride! - Spoonful_O_Sugar  436.3 #285 9:26AM
👆👍 - CM_SmS1291  443.5 #279 9:29AM
I concur - DebbyMouse7531  228.8 #20 1:28PM
That's wrong, I rode the Lilly Bell this past Wednesday. I'm not a member of any of the clubs. I went to the station on Main Street and asked the cast member if it was running and if we could ride. We got right in. It was 2:30 in the afternoon. Good Luck I hope you get to ride it. - ambear72  158.9 #2167 9:32AM
I believe that there are some days that the Lilly Belle is reserved for Club 33 members, but it's not an every day thing. - JustCantWait  815.5 #113 1:58PM
Perhaps a party from Club 33 had already gotten all the reservations for today, but it is not always reserved for Club 33. Anyone can make reservations, it is first come first serve. - lohofosho  287.4 #686 6:00PM

Interesting to hear that I'm not the only one who's disappointed. It seems that smoothing out the little bumps just magnified the big ones. And it doesn't seem possible that the ride is slower. Sure seems that way though!

Yay for the duckies! I was hanging out by Adventureland and one of the babies wandered out through the fence. A man grabbed it and I thought he was putting it back over the fence to safety. Nope! He held it for his kid to pet. Momma Duck was NOT having it and got him good on the hand. Go Momma Duck! I hope the man learned to leave the babies alone.
Where are you? Wait for me so I can throw dirt at the kids😠 - ScubaSteve028  812.7 #115 7:27PM

I was on the Cultivating the Magic tour this morning and saw the Disneyland Band riding and playing at the front of the Mark Twain. And the Mark Twain horn was part of the music. So cute! The tour guide said he'd never seen that before.
