The Magic, the Memories, and You! (Gone but not forgotten.)
August and the Inaugural Disneylandยฎ 10K can’t come quickly enough!!
We have only been to Disneyland once so I didn't know about most of these. The Davy Crockett Explorer Canoe looks great!
Yes Lisa. ๐ Believe it or else, I remember the Davy Crockett Explorer Canoes paddling along Frontierland in Walt Disney World in 1972! It closed there in 1994, so it was nice to see the original still in operation!!
Now we're talking my language-my home of Disneyland! I can just hear the guides in the canoes telling us all to paddle and the pool at the Disneyland Hotel-not to be missed! Thanks for sharing my Happiest Place on Earth-can't wait to be back there in a few weeks!
So happy to share sights of "home" Gayle! (Any chance you'll be there again at the end of August?!)
What great pictures! I love the canoes…even though I am always terrified that I will fall in! haha
Ha! This is the only guest-driven attraction in Disneyland, so I do wonder… We had a blast Michaelyn!!
Those canoes have not been open when we have been to DL…oh well the price you pay for low crowds. Love all you pictures…I need to go to DL again!
We were so happy that we finally had the opportunity to give the canoes a spin; such fun with a big group. Beware of splashing husbands!
Wow! These are great and really highlight the differences between the two. So much more to experience there thant I thought!! I have always wanted to do the canoes.
Mary- that's what I love about excursions to other parks; celebrating what is unique to them. It's an adventure!
Great shots- I like that outdoor Disneyland Hotel area!
Thanks KJ- we absolutely love everything about the Disneyland Hotel!!
Great photos! They made me even more excited about our upcoming trip. And I didn't think that was possible! ๐
We better bump into you girl!!! I'm SO excited for your first race! (Pre-race photo, perhaps…??)
Makes me want to visit Disneyland! It is definitely on the list. We are east coasters and closer to WDW, but I really want to see where it all started. Beautiful pics!
You can literally FEEL Walt's presence at Disneyland. Walt Disney World will always be "home", but Disneyland is very, very special!
I love seeing the contrast of Disneyland and Disney World. Makes me really want to see Disneyland! I remember the canoes from WDW! I had no idea DL still had them! What fun pictures!!
Yay Deb- I'm glad I'm not the only one who "remembers"!!!
Love your photos Didi. This is a great way for me to visit DL, LOL ๐
Suz
I thought the same when looking at the photos from Tokyo DisneySea; the next best thing!!!
As always, these Disneyland pics make me want to get out there sooner for my first visit!! It looks awesome!! thank you for sharing these!
James, you gotta love firsts! Thank goodness Disney always provides… ๐
Super summer fun at Disneyland! Can't wait to get there myself!
And when you do, I'll be there reading about it Jodi!!
One day I hope to go to Disneyland. I am an annual passholder at Disney World and would love to see it. Great pics!

Thanks Sandra! We have APs to Walt Disney World too, so I know it's a bit tough to pay for park tickets at Disneyland. After I hit that lottery I'll be investing in the Disney Premier Passport!! ๐
Is there still a laser show on It's a Small World? We loved that, too bad if it's gone.
I know the projection show is gone, but didn't believe it was replaced. I'll let you know!!
Great summer shots! The monorail slides look great for a resort, I will need to give them a try. Thanks for sharing.
The adults had a ball on them!!!
Awesome pics, Donna. I love the Davy Crockett Canoes. And I want to go down the monorail slides. Makes me want to be there right now ๐ Thanks for sharing
Great collection of summer fun! We'll be at DL this summer, so I love seeing all the Cali images!
You will have such a fantastic time- enjoy every second!!!
Diane, the Davy Crockett Canoes made for the perfect extended family event. The 8 of us splashed, rowed and sang our way along the Rivers of America. What a ball!!
We have yet to see the Mad T Party but love all the Disneyland shots.That's a great shot of the canoe. Happy summer!
Mary, the Mad T Party really is something different. (And the glow in the dark adult beverages aren't bad either!!)
I have never been to Disneyland so I love when someone posts pictures from there. Looks fun!
It is April, it is!! ๐
