    Memories... I remember when my mom would take us a lot when my sister and I were kids. We always had a blast. Can’t wait for the day when I get to take my son. I know it’s not the same as when I was a kid growing up but Disney is still fun.

    I love the Disneyland Monorail too. When I rode on that for the first time, I was super thrilled and I was like, "Wow, I can't believe I'm doing this in person too!"

    I was born in 1990 and seeing this reminded me of my first trip to D-land circa 96/97, before the days of DCA and Dwtn Disney. I remember vividly the massive parking lot which took us forever to get from the car to just the front entrance. I'd say the multistory parking structure and trams are truly an improvement. I've been to Disneyland 7 times from 1999-2009 and I haven't gone since, so I think it's time for me to end my longest Disney drought ever.

      I hope you make it back to Disneyland soon, They did have trams from the parking lot to the Disneyland entrance back and before then at the time!

    Very cool video! I was there that year during the 35th anniversary celebration! I was 4 then, now 28! I was there this last February with my family & it brings back so many memories! Disneyland has changed a lot since then, such as California Adventure now taking over the original parking lot & the redesigned Tomorrowland & Autopia.

    • @stanfordite
      @stanfordite 3 роки тому +2

      Gotta love John Hench. I agree with him in the long run, but he probably would've liked DCA at least for several years including the late 2000s up until 2018 when Marvel and Pixar began to invade. DCA's problem at first wasn't the California theme at all, but the execution of it. I'd rather have a parking lot back than DCA with Marvel and Pixar invading.

    • @ryan24a73

I am working on getting tickets to go and visit a the "old" shutdown places. I am invested to see if that McDonald's is still open right across from Disney.

DCA and downtown disney don't excite me,the grand californian is a place i'll never be able to afford to stay,and the parking structures are an eyesore. i used to ride my bike to disneyland and loved crossing the 100 acre parking lot to the main entrance. and don't get me started on how tomorrowland looks now compared to then! change is not always for the better.

    That is from yesterland on the web.
