This is a photo I took withy iPhone5 using the panoramic feature to capture my view from the Carthay Circle Reserved section for the viewing of World Of Color.
One of my many favorite scenes in the Its A Small World Holidays ride. The Christmas postcards at the end of the ride and the many different languages.
Here's a Christmas tree from inside It's a Small World. I wonder if anyone knows how many Christmas trees are in the Disneyland Resort including the three hotels. Hmmmm???
I don't know either. That's why I was asking. Maybe someone out there has the answer. Lol - anthony9176523.3 #4876 12-23-12 9:23PMLike Reply
I love how Disneyland does its decorating so perfectly. Just curious with the large crowd tonight if there were more Christmas lights than people.... Hmmm???
With all that's been happening in this world I think this is the best message and Christmas wish for this to come for us all. Love It's a Small World and the feel good, heart warming sensation it brings.
The awesome reserved spot for just wearing your glowing Mickey ears. Prime spot. Middle of the road in Main Street between Jolly House and photo supply store :)
One one hand, a rather cool perk and a great photo op. I saw a little plug for the GWTS ears on channel 5 morning news today. Might even be a nice photo op for Disney. On the other hand, it also seems like a bit of a marketing ploy. Oh well, give and take. - DizKahuna151.0 #2319 12-21-12 9:32PMLike Reply
I welcome the marketing ploy. It makes me sad that so many people have the ears but never wear them in the park at night. Disney worked so hard to make them perfect and enhance each show. I actually heard some people talking about them saying I wouldn't buy them, they're too distracting for those who actually want to watch the show, but they have never seen the show with a section full of ears for the full effect. Many Disneyland guests are missing this amazing experience that so many of us had the pleasure of viewing already. I hope this ploy encourages more participation. - mini_MINNIE 434.7 #293 12-22-12 9:59AM

I really enjoyed this ride more than I thought. It really is fun. I will be sure to ride on it again once it officially opens. It was great to do the early preview day today.
It is fun. Speaking of "blast" there are metal vents on the floor that blast out air. Kinda like an air hockey table. Anyways, any of you ladies who wear any kind of dress you may want to be careful. You might have a Marilyn Monroe moment. Lol - anthony9176523.3 #4876 6-11-12 11:11PMLike(2) Reply
I loved this ride! For some reason we all got a second round and by that time everyone had the gist of it. It's better when you ride it single because your tire moves so much faster. And you have to ram eachother altogether squishing the balls between you in order to make them bounce up. Some groups didn't quite get the concept and just floated around :/ - JNewie226.4 #1312 6-11-12 11:29PMLike Reply

I actually was stuck on potc once, but years ago. the area was where the ship and the fort are battling. all of us riders were getting tired of the dialogue so we shouted for them to turn it off, which they did. yet, it got really eerie watching the captain move and the cannons going off but no sound so they turned on the lights. we got to see the magic behind it all and it was neat! then cms came out with these rubber/waterproof pants and pushed each boat back till it reached a secret cm entrance. it is just in front of where captain blackbeard is projected on the fog. we got to go through the entrance and saw very neat things. it was crazy seeing all of this. it was like we got a backstage pass. the time we were stuck on the ride Washington just about 3hpurs. - SammyJo348.7 #429 6-18-11 12:30AMLike Reply
