In preparation for a large task at hand: planning a Disneyland vacation, on a July 4th weekend no less. It sounds daunting: hot, crowded and visions of long lines are dancing in my head. One can only hope.
The Disneyland of my youth seems to be so much different from the Disney of today. First of all, I remember tickets being well below the $20.00 mark. Today, they float arrogantly at $99.00 and above, depending on your choice, with a pathetic single day, single park pass at $47.00. I know I used to do Disney in a day - but they would let you back in the next day for free, at no extra cost. I was there so often, I already knew the good rides (Pirates of the Caribbean, The Matterhorn, Tomorrowland's car ride, the haunted house) so it didn't take so much time to decide where to go and what to ride. Besides, we probably would go when it wasn't a screaming holiday.
The last time I went to the park must have been more than 15 years ago. I brace myself for the changes.
