As one does. <br /><br />TokyoMagic!, by golly, I’m sure you’re right! I originally composed today’s post weeks ago, and since then, GDB readers have observed that the Subs appeared to be closed, so I’m sure that construction barrier has something to do with that. Of course Lucy Ricardo got into all sorts of monkeyshines, maybe it was her fault after all.<br /><br />K. Martinez, Fred MacMurray was walking his pet alligators at the time!<br /><br />K. Martinez, I sort of like the first pic better because you get more of the “big picture”, and I always enjoy seeing the Skyway get smaller and smaller as it gets closer to the Matterhorn.<br /><br />TokyoMagic!, I would be happy to see Lesley Ann Warren any time.<br /><br />Penna. Andrew, jetpack is the smart way to travel anywhere, unless you are in Scotland and like to wear a kilt.<br /><br />stu29573, I believe that this photo is from the brief period when Disneyland had a pond filled with vodka. It seemed like a good idea to somebody.<br /><br />Lou and Sue, you are welcome!<br /><br />JG, when going through the nostrils, please be sure to avoid any stalactites. Just saying. I think there are about a dozen more photos from this fun Tomorrowland lot.<br /><br />Jonathan, they probably want to sell your images to the Illuminati and the National Enquirer! I’ve tried wearing a trench coat and a “Lone Ranger” mask, but somehow that gets me even MORE attention.<br /><br />Melissa, as long as it isn’t pique Disneyland.<br /><br />K.

I know it is 1975, but I still believe that is what's happening in that pic. It could also have something to do with EVERYONE'S favorite parade, "America On Parade." Didn't that parade begin in the summer of 1975 and run for over a year? (Just disregard the fact that the parade never even entered Tomorrowland.) If the construction doesn't have anything to do with either one of those things, then I think it has something to do with "I Love Lucy." ;-)TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-3143675631647848912019-08-28T00:15:53.659-07:002019-08-28T00:15:53.659-07:00Major-

(I hope he [or she] filed for an early patent). Either way, these are fine images of our 'favorite' Matterhorn.<br /><br />Thanks, Major.Nanookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255357829181568172noreply@blogger.com
