    All things Anaheim GardenWalk

    Holee. Mother. Of. Gawd. 😧 You have been sitting on this information for the past 10 months and you just now got around to sharing this?!? I'm stunned, and shocked, and amused, and saddened, and bewildered. And a few other emotions too. So the flourescent llamas were replaced by oddly...

    Yeah, but would you also consider vlogging about the circa 1982 ashtrays in the pre-show? Don't forget to Like and Subscribe!

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    As Annette so wisely sang, no way to go but up! :D

    It won't be there for long. They'll need to get them to work their 3 days-per-week in the office somewhere else.

    Ooh! And when they bring the park trash cans with ash trays in them out for the 1980's portion of the Tomorrowland Film Festival, get them to stamp the big Disneyland "D" in the sand like they used to do in the old days! That was always so classy; ashtrays with the Disneyland D stamped into the...

    Magic Journeys would be especially fun to see! And the older Disney fans would remember it fondly, while the younger vloggers could pretend it's "AMAAAAZING!" for Likes and Subscribes. Maybe rotate movies every 6 hours? Start the morning with Magic Journeys, then do Captain EO in afternoons...

    Wait, I'm going to keep my Super Angry Face emoji that was my initial gut reaction to this, but then also consider... Maybe it's time to bring it back? But just for a "limited engagement" thing, and as part of a 1990's throwback campaign. My tablemates and I were marveling at a pack of...

    Got it, and understood. But if they are pressing forward with a new Eastern Gateway 2.0, and one that has now doubled in capacity, that would tell me they are still wanting to utilize the 10 acres or so of the East Esplanade bus loading area for DCA expansion. Which was a big reason they wanted...

    Bingo! Thank you for getting it that "placemaking" and upgraded design doesn't have to break the bank. It just can't be as obviously cheap and basic as the Eastern Gateway 2.0 project now looks to be. During the Clinton Administration, about 20 years before I swore off American Airlines and/or...

    Well, no. But I bet a few might win if they called it a Scholarship Pageant instead. :cool: They just don't have to look as plain and cheap and ugly as this latest Eastern Gateway concept. There are plenty of big parking structures that do fun things with design, and artsy panels, and zippy...

    Tiana's Bayou Adventure: Disneyland Watch & Discussion

    While I'm thrilled to hear they are including the fabulous songs from the movie (and the riverboat show) from PATF, I'm a little ticked off that the "secret ingredient" isn't love, or community, or cooperation, or family, or you. If the secret ingredient is the cute little animal band that...

    Yes, that whole thing is up for grabs now. And it seems to have been redesigned a bit, and doubled in size. If I remember right, the original plan was for a structure that had 8,000 parking spaces. But this new one has space for 17,600 parking spaces. They also gave up any plans for including a...

    Yes, good point on that. I had forgotten until you just mentioned it that a big part of the original Eastern Gateway plan from 2015 was to open up acres of park expansion for DCA north of the current Hollywood Land area, it what is now the bus depot plaza. Including the rerouting of the...

    Transportation from LAX

    To be fair, for the past decade if you could just manage to get yourself through the traffic gridlock and past the security screening mess at the Tom Bradley terminal, things were actually pretty good inside that one overseas terminal itself. The Singapore Airlines and SAS lounges in particular...

    All things Anaheim GardenWalk

    I am absolutely SHOCKED to hear that GardenWalk's current owners, who have such exquisite taste in design and decor and day-to-day management, can't get the rest of the hotels built. It's only been 15 years. What's another decade or two for a World Class Resort District...
