Many times he did it at disneyland, but anywhere, the fair, the mall, camping, etc.<br /><br />I went to do it with my family, and my son recently mentioned that he did it with his group abroad last winter on their trips to foreign parts.<br /><br />Even today, I hear that whistle and i look up, expecting to see my dad.<br /><br />I wonder where that whistle practice originated.<br /><br />Thanks for the good memories.<br /><br />JGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-7526249388721616462008-09-24T12:22:00.000-07:002008-09-24T12:22:00.000-07:00Disney-Nazi.

They'd ususally let you take the railroad before opening...<BR/><I>Now don't be surprised if you hear the roar of a crocodile or the trumpet of a wild elephant, 'cause we're riding through the jungles of Adventureland...</I><BR/>Once the park opened, you hit the big rides first- Space Mountian, Pirates, etc.. As the park became crowded there were plenty of attractions with shorter waits- Tiki Room, Country Bear Jamboree, America Sings, People Mover, Columbia Ship, Even the cornball rides like Mission to Mars and Adventure Thru Inner Space were fun.Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-85789454413129872582008-09-23T00:54:00.000-07:002008-09-23T00:54:00.000-07:00Nice one man...really beautiful..if I be given cha...Nice one man...really beautiful..if I be given chance to visit overseas, after went through this article, my first choice will be Disney World!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-88045348727921433322008-09-23T00:52:00.000-07:002008-09-23T00:52:00.000-07:00Nice one man...really beautiful..if I be given cha...Nice one man...really beautiful..if I be given chance to visit overseas, after went through this article, my first choice will be Disney World!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-14887898507549327902008-09-22T20:39:00.000-07:002008-09-22T20:39:00.000-07:00haha that sweeper whistle is awesome! me and my fa...haha that sweeper whistle is awesome! me and my family just agree on a spot to meet if we ever get lost, and my sisters in particular have to stick together no matter what so neither are alone! thank god for cell phones though, it has helped reunite us so many times!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-75718194503366821332008-09-22T16:05:00.000-07:002008-09-22T16:05:00.000-07:00Now, I want to go to Disney World!Now, I want to go to Disney World!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-65835317224370484372008-09-22T12:07:00.000-07:002008-09-22T12:07:00.000-07:00You sound like the kind of person I could do Disne...You sound like the kind of person I could do Disney with ... easy.<BR/><BR/>This sounds like the perfect day.
