Hello All...
I have been thinking about starting this thread for a while now, and hesitated for some time...but tonight i have finally caved in and said 'Why the heck not..?'
This is a Disney Park fan forum after all, and my personal fave.
Folks here are probably more likely to find this upcoming adventure of interest, or at least somewhat entertaining...
In about two weeks i will be revisiting Disneyland, and i am fairly excited about it.
Coming from the East Coast to the Left is always 'exciting'...but this year i sense the visit will be extra-special.
And with good reason.
I am taking , what i am calling, the 'Tony Baxter Tour of Disneyland'...!
Now before i confuse folks, this is not a ACTUAL 'tour'...so put the phones down that you have the Disneyland Tours booking number on. Put em' down !
This is just a fun, fan thingy...i made up just for the joy of it.
My tour plan is simple :
Visit Disneyland Resort and hit every attraction Tony has been involved in, in some shape or form...savor it....repeat...!
Full 'trip report' when i return...well, IF i return....who knows what happens in the wilds of Anaheim !
Dates: Tuesday September 10th thru Saturday September 14th
So this is where YOU, fair reader, get to join in the fun.
I am looking for suggestions from those-in-the-know.
Besides attractions...name some choice places i should add that would fit the theme.
Stuff that relates to Tony in some way, shape, or form.
A couple of things i already have on the 'to-do' list, one being checking out the model of BTMR located in the 'Frontierland' buildings' lobby at the DL Hotel.
What else of interest should a serious Baxter fan experience while in town...?
I debated wether or not i should start this thread now, or wait until after the visit.
I decided to create it before, in the hopes of gaining further insights into places or things worth checking out that i may miss otherwise.
So this is not your typical 'what should i do/see at DL' thread.
This is a 'themed experience'...just like the Park itself!
Hey, would Tony want it any other way...?
I blew off my usual September visit to WDW in favor of DL primarily for the fun experience of exploring DL on my own with this themed overlay to the visit.
I practically 'live' at WDW, so to get out and get back into the 'original' was very appealing.
Add into that my entusiasim and appreciation of Tony's work over the years, and i figured now is the time to visit again.
The idea for the 'themed tour' made it all the more appealing....not that one needs such a excuse to re-visit!
I actually originally considered organizing a small fan gathering...but decided that this might not be a good idea.
So let's hear your thoughts, suggestions, and interesting info!
Now...if only that Main Street Window ceremony was happening while i was in town....whoa...that would be EPIC..!
