Here are a couple of nice black and white photos for you today! Starting with this nice shot of the Bertha Mae Keelboat scooting by. You can sit on top of for a better view, or down below where there are comfy cushions on the seats and cover from flying Indian arrows. A canoe is also passing; since the canoes only operate on busy (mostly summer) days, it is surprising to see everyone wearing a coat. Even the guides have eschewed their Indian garb. That's right, I said eschewed! Boxes and crates are piled on the dock for the rafts on Tom Sawyer Island, presumably because the Island has not opened for fun yet.
Well well, seems the Bertha Mae was heading for home. To the extreme left you can just see the tunnel for the train, and to the right of that, basically obscured, is the pedestrian tunnel to the Indian Village.
...and I finally notice that the Keel Boats look right at home with the early, seedy Fowler's Harbor, now that I see them docking there. There's another sleeveless guy going into the shack on the side of Fowler's too; what's with the people and place there, my gosh.
ReplyDeleteI have eschewed my jacket, and my shirt. But not to panic I still have my Goofy longjohns.
These are pretty darn cool photos, especially when enlarged.
ReplyDeleteThose are; just amazing pictures.
ReplyDelete:chuckling: perfect Halloween look on the Indiana Village link.
ReplyDeleteTrick or Treat!
It is unfortunate that the keelboats at Disneyland are no more. A couple of knuckle heads decided to rock the boat in 1997 I believe causing it to capsize. Now kids do not have the pleasure to ride on keelboats anymore.
ReplyDeleteLots of people eschewing today. Gesundheit!
ReplyDeleteEschew! I'm glad you guys liked these today... sometimes I feel like black and white might seem like lesser photos.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, you are right, although that was unintentional.
O.C. Native, I agree....
