Last Thursday at the Park


Big Thunder Mountain

I rode all of three things last Thursday at Disneyland. [Pirates of the Caribbean (front row, of course), Haunted Mansion, and It's a Small World.] This is the joy of having an Annual Pass. No pressure to ride everything. You can go after work and blow off some steam, have dinner, stroll around with your gentleman friend. So here's a photo I took on one of our strolls. It was taken from that pathway that goes behind Big Thunder Mountain--which I am still fully convinced has its own name tho no one seems to know for sure. Where am I getting this from? I think I may be remembering some fragment from an old Disney map. Was it called Big Thunder Pass? Do you know?.

Here's a couple things I forgot about until yesterday/today...

1. When we were in line at Haunted, there were two young ladies behind us. They were debating which is more awesome, Nightman or Day Man. It was inconclusive, but they wrapped the debate by singing "Day Man" complete with hip swings and overhead claps.
2. When we were in Haunted's "stretch room" I was saying the Ghost Host script along with the voiceover. I always do though I try to keep it more or less to myself. If not in my head, then very very quietly to myself. I look around, everyone is doing the same exact thing. Thursday night at the Park? With your nerd clothes and nerd gear? Yeah, everyone here's a Pass holder.

It's Always Sunny AND Disney minutiae; I realized I am with my own kind.
Join me next week Friday when I check out Captain EO [TRIBUTE] which reopened yesterday.


Comment or message if you know what that path is called.
Or if you just want to weigh in on the Day Man/Nightman debate.
