Pirate Ship Ahoy!

Do not attempt to adjust your monitors! This photo was taken by a person wearing one platfrom shoe and one fuzzy slipper, as was the fad of the time. The three guests are standing in line at regular intervals. Please do not invade their 3-foot comfort zone! That bubble of protection is the difference between order and anarchy.


They are all facing a souvenir stand, just out of frame to the right. The lad in the middle already has a bag (from the Emporium?), what rare treasure did he buy? (Just so you know, the color looks odd because this is from a slide that has turned a vivid shade of magenta, and this was the best I could do.)

And the lady at the end of the line is wearing one of the souvenir plastic hard hats made by Keppy Kap!

Wait a minute! Am I actually seeing pieces of garbage on the ground?!? Someone would have been toast if Walt had seen this.

I was just noticing how themeless the trash cans are. Could it be that this was the reason for the trash on the ground? Perhaps the custodial staff really took notice after the cans were painted according to their lands.

Major, I absolutely love the stories you tell with these slides. You always manage either a big grin or a chuckle out of me every day. Thank you!

Nice color correction, you shouldn't have told us it was shocked in Magenta, I would never have known! Such an orderly line, you will NEVER find that today at the park...
