Favorite quote from a fellow MWer Y all are weirdos talking into something crazy (Erin Igleasis) Premium pass holders since Feb. 2012
Well, the great connielu annual pass experiment is almost over. The goal was to see if a family from Nor-Cal could make premium passes be cost effective without "losing the magic' so to speak. I believe we will be going back to a once a y More...
Sorry to hear and hope you can return soon. The media has already announced they will discontinue the so cal discounts. It is not a rumor. - MrsSchnooks573.0 #192 2-23-13 11:55PMLike Reply
Evening Jim, once a year is still well worth it. I go twice a year and are truly grateful for my rec leave and whoever invented the aeroplane!! Haha. Keep MW close and the magic will be there when-ever you need it. Cheers, Coley - RapunzelledColey12.9 #6046 2-24-13 12:06AMLike Reply
That makes sense! Once a year or twice a year is better than none! And you will always have Mouse Wait to get you through. There are also trips to the Disney Museum and Sky Walker Ranch!!! - Boundin424.9 #299 2-24-13 1:15AMLike Reply
Was talking to security tonight while waiting for the fireworks, and he said Disney owns everything on Harbor from McDonald's to Katella. He also said Tomorrow Land is set for a major refurb to be completed before the 60th anniversary.
Disney does not own everything from McDonalds to Harbor unless he is talking about the northern side and I still don't know if they own the lot where the 7-11 sits but the big rumor is that they are going to redo Tomorrowland for the 60th, now what actually happens is still really unknown and most everything is all rumors with no facts...Just because they are a CM does not make them know all as a Disney Historian or Imagineer - Dave 8638.5 #2 8-19-12 1:19AMLike(11) Reply

That isn't true, my grandma owns a convince store called st. Germaines right off of katella and before harbor and my grandma said the only way she would sell the store is if Disney bought it. I wonder why he would tell anyone that - Queenof2princesses254.7 #965 8-19-12 9:45AMLike Reply
It got crowded after noon, overflow from DCA I guess. It was amazing while it lasted. We did every E ticket before 11 am. Now for a little rest then back to close the park. - connielu672.2 #153 8-17-12 2:40PMLike Reply

We were just there Friday, and I am seriously considering getting an pass this time. Not just for impromptu trips, but for the discounts. - Lelundrial341.0 #428 4-9-12 12:01PMLike Reply
The discount are a added plus! Now we eat at Cafe Orleans or Plaza Inn for what we used to pay at Hungry Bear or Pizza Port. Parking is a plus too. We can come and go as we please and not hassle waiting for ART or a hotel shuttle. - connielu 672.2 #153 4-9-12 2:04PM

This narrow gauge caboose was once owned by Ward Kimble, it was donated by him to The California Railroad Museum and is displayed there being "pulled " by a locomotive similar to the two Baldwins in the parks.
