I MISS my daily Gibson Girl habit that I picked up on my vacay at the parks last week!! Dying for it! ENJOY!! - CuriousAsAlice730.6 #4353 5-24-13 7:55PMLike Reply
Disappointing that they're charging for Christmas... But, I don't really like the Christmas parade, and I LOVE Soundsational and the Remember show, so I guess there's a silver lining for me. They'll have Christmas WOC, too, right?
This truly breaks my heart. Growing up I myself didn't get to experience many xmas because our family grew up poor.As an adult with kids going to the park at xmas time and watching the parade and fireworks had become a family tradition.we love experience it over and over again. The magic look on my kids faces was priceless and true I could buy a ticket it would be expensive on a family of 4 or to anyone and no guarantee parades or fireworks would perform as they can be cancelled at anytime or for any reason. I understand Disney is a business but xmas time is one of the busiest time of the year ,but how is it going to be to parks guest to leave early during a busy season as well. to me this is really sad news to hear and do not think voicing our concerns to Disney may help. any thoughts on this ? - pikarich616.2 #177 5-24-13 12:14AMLike(25) Reply
I normally take Disney's side when they seem to be getting beat up, but this time I'll pass. I don't like this either. I'll be seriously dissapointed if too much of the Christmas spirit is taken away on "normal" nights. - Tom3881.0 #7 5-24-13 3:06AMLike(13) Reply
I agree, it really pisses me off. its taking away a lot of the magic of the holidays and just walking around the park at night and enjoying the music and atmosphere. So now they will probably have an inflatable tree they can take down for in time. And there goes closing the parks out for that time. Are they going to play rap music now instead during the non parties? - Dave 8671.1 #2 5-24-13 2:55PM
Seriously a bummer! Really would Walt want it this way??? - rickandyvonne11.3 #6411 5-24-13 11:39PMLike Reply
Wow so no matter how much more I have to pay I get a snowballs in fire that I can spend sometime during Christmas at Disney. I was thinking of renewing pass I think I'm gonna PASS pun intended. How disappointing.:( - Grumpy Lily13.4 #5940 5-25-13 12:02AMLike Reply
I used to love this place! I would drag my folks there when I was a very young boy! - martini8668-cm39.1 #4029 5-23-13 12:06PMLike(1) Reply
That is awesome!! Do you remember the commercial "ask any mermaid you happen to see...what's the best tuna? Chicken of the Sea!!" - adisneyfamily 515.5 #228 5-23-13 1:45PM
I have a very vague memory of being there as a little kid. I was stoked to be able to find pictures of it online. It helped me confirm when I my first trip to the park was. - Bibba281.7 #723 5-24-13 11:06AMLike Reply
It's hard to convey what you mean through text and the use of "!!!" can come off as being harsh and cause people to react. We are really only trying to help, please don't get offended. Hope you had an enjoyable day at the parksπ - Linzee518.9 #225 5-22-13 3:50PMLike(2) Reply

Yep! Just like that! LOL - DisneyDavidEMT 452.9 #271 5-22-13 7:15PM
It's really fun to play. I realized though that my DL love does not equal DL knowledge. I only Facebook to keep up with what our kids & grand kids are doing, and MW trivia. - BelieveInMagic 85.6 #3203 5-22-13 9:27AM
We must be twinsies--I usually get Belle, too! ππΉπ
I think I got belle too. It's funny cause awhile back, some young girl thought I was belle!! - Superspacemountainfan11.5 #6353 5-21-13 8:19PMLike(1) Reply
I don't miss them--the new entrance with BVS in the background is a more meaningful theme, and it all looks more refined! I found the letters kinda tacky, lol, but I know they were fun for many people. :)
I don't miss them at all. The park is much more tasteful now, and it begins to show that when you first walk up. - MousekaNinja335.8 #447 5-20-13 10:58PMLike(5) Reply
Hey I love that you spoke out and said your view! The new look does have a new sophistication and therefore kind of class to it... Awesome point! - somedaymyprincewillcome16 202.4 #1596 5-21-13 3:17AM
I think they were neat, but I love the ever changing landscapes at DLR. Also, I used to get major panic attacks watching parents perch their little ones up high on the letters. Yikes! - iwantdisney258.1 #925 5-20-13 10:53PMLike(2) Reply
This is so true hosting a adorable little girl dressed as Minnie to the top of the L I saw one day... I couldn't leave till they got her down! Of course that was frightening too as the super tall father used his other older daughter on his shoulders to get her on and off! It was like I was glued in place but shock and fear and hardly believing a family was working to accomplish this! I couldn't stop watching thank goodness little Minnie got down safe... But good gracious where were any of those "parental instincts" when they came up with that frightening idea... Tower of terror felt like nothing after that to start off the day :P - somedaymyprincewillcome16 202.4 #1596 5-21-13 3:24AM
I enjoy the new entrance. The California letters can still be enjoyed at the California State Fair Grounds. Disney was very generous in donating them to the state - Tealtownfan693.4 #144 5-21-13 6:39AMLike Reply
It didn't have an M so I really didn't care that much for them lol, I adore the new look. Wouldn't go back for anything - MarshaMouse2871.6 #15 5-21-13 6:41AMLike Reply
I keep trying to write something profound, but I keep deleting because my words seem lame. So I'll just say that it will happen, and when it does, this will be the perfect place to celebrate! You are an inspiration to all of us! Cheers More...
I've never met you.. and I love you (Dug voice)..... What a touching story. Dreams do come true SIC and I am going to wish on that shooting star in POTC every time I see it that all of yours do too. - GrumpyPirateDad503.0 #236 5-20-13 8:02PMLike(10) Reply
