This is by far the greatest CD boxed set I've ever bought - a must if you like Disneyland music and sounds from throughout the Park's history. Hmmm... wonder if they have that CD at the Laughing Place store? sounds like just what I'm looking for. Am decorating for a DL themed party in June and was ...
3. Ariel. Huh? I hear you say! Well let me explain - she is the first of the new generation of Disney female stars - headstrong and sexy - a far cry from the earlier portrayal of women in Disney films Now, if my girlfriend was writing this list for me, she would say my favourite five are: Belle, Ar...
I have some old Pana Vue slides from DL but don't know how old. Am assuming they are from at least the 70's. If you're interested in any prints to use at the meeting, just leave a message and I'll send some up to the club address. These are the ones I thought you might be interested in: -Storybook l...
Just thought I would put in my 20 cents worth on this issue. Firstly, I too found this site via a link from an American site. Having said that, I was actually looking for Australians I could chat to about Disney. I realize that I am relatively new to the club and forum, but the loss of the local fla...
I remember reading years ago that at the New Orleans Square train station the morse code that plays as part of the atmosphere is actually the beginning of Walt's opening day speech. Greg I had heard this too, I think it was on the Walt Disney Treasures DVD about the opening of Disneyland. It has th...
The Magic is in the detail. They sprinkle it on everything - some of it easy to spot, and other bits require you to really take notice. I love that about Disney Parks.
Just thought I would share a bit of info that I had come across about a new Theme that will kind of take over TDL from the 15th April to the 13th of July. The new production is called 'Hulihuli Ohana Bash'. It centres heavily around the Lilo and Stitch movie. The talk is that the Castle will be 'gra...
I have heard of the 'Mickey, Donald, Goofy,Minnie,Pluto' combo referred to as the Fab 5. With a little more searching have discovered that sometimes Pluto is interchangable with Daisy to make a different option on the '5'. Since touching on this in another thread I have given this a lot of thought a...
Glad to see I'm not the only comic collector on here, even if I do take it to extremes. :D Lisa, do you buy the new ones in the newsagent or do you check out second hand stores? Greg I am a seasoned garage-saler ,eBayer and second hand store scrounger. I love the search and the bargain even more. M...
Yep, I have been 'forced' to buy the odd comic in recent years. Not so much as a collector but as a gathering of memories. We were blessed to have a dad who loved Donald Duck, so mum would buy him comics every trip into town and then we would inherit them all. We literally had 100's but the sad part...
but with only the shadowed outline of Mickey (or one of the other fab 5) The fab 5? Greg Have heard this term used to describe the "Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto" combo. Thought it was cute. Perhaps its a marketing term more than anything else - ie: they may be the heavy hitters in the sa...
I wonder if the lucky people got some sort of commemorative ticket or badge or something to say that they had been there prior to opening day? Greg Not sure if there were rehearsal day pins but they certainly had commemorative tickets for this occasion. The rehearsal tickets were the same as the Gr...
Great to hear you had a great experience there . I'm still in the deciding stages of which park to visit next but HK was shortlisted. I felt the same way about the TDL when I visited there - everyone SO polite. Will be interested in knowing if there were language problems or not. Cant wait for the r...
