Without a doubt, Disney World's Jungle Cruise and Adventureland is tropical theming to the max! Of course, we at Disneyland will always have Walt's (and Harper Goff's) original Jungle Cruise attraction. I see that you are a Jungle Skip. Mark well the words of this blog. Dig through the old posts. You might find a gem or two that will come in handy during your next trip around the Jungle!<br /><br />Be well! Do good work! Spread the Disney magic! Don't take any wooden shrunken heads. To thine ownself be true. Neither a borrower nor a lender be. Never give a sucker an even break. Semper ubi sub ubi (famous Latin literalist translation meaning "always where under where"). Smile: it confuses people who know you, charms those who don't and irks the ones who don't like you. Plant a tree; write a book; send flowers; obfuscate when necessary; deny plausibly when possible; floss regularly; follow the food pyramid---but don't slip on the way up; never drink Jungle water; always say never when you mean sometimes, but never say always when rendering advice to others; alarm sleeping teenagers; and walk softly in a mine field, but, better yet, take the long way around.<br /><br />---MikeMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02936929214738391738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-78498213331129255672010-02-22T19:43:15.305-08:002010-02-22T19:43:15.305-08:00Im a WDW Skip, and I wait, much to my party member...Im a WDW Skip, and I wait, much to my party members dismay, in the outside queue at the WDW Mansion every time I go there at night just to watch the Lantern walk through the Conservatory.

It's a 1971 Walt Disney World effect which was brought over to the Mansion sometime in the 80's. Walt Disney World's one still (mostly) is in operation, with all of the windows being illuminated one at a time and a light even passing through the Conservatory, illuminating a bunch of dead plants.FoxxFurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00443092111956989561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-51297873134316265902008-09-18T19:09:00.000-07:002008-09-18T19:09:00.000-07:00I'm really liking your blog...very informative,I'm really liking your blog...very informative,CharmCityChicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14899751182372272036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-79607155882840144352008-09-18T13:24:00.000-07:002008-09-18T13:24:00.000-07:00Ooohhh ... spooky!I have to say that since finding...Ooohhh ... spooky!<BR/><BR/>I have to say that since finding your blog (through blogs of note, of course) I can't stop coming to read your posts and look at the AWESOME pictures you have. <BR/><BR/>Disneyland was where my family went every year to vacation when we lived in Nevada, and I do everything in my power to go back when I can (I currently am living in the Midwest).

Riding though it, I became SO FREAKED OUT that I refused to open my eyes. I remember my mother sitting next to me, laughing at my silliness. I can laugh about it now, but man, back then it was the stuff that nightmares were made of!fraizerbazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15499767096422875948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1506123180429523126.post-86516115733268106192008-09-18T06:57:00.000-07:002008-09-18T06:57:00.000-07:00I'm so glad you were made a blog of note-I never w...I'm so glad you were made a blog of note-I never would have found you otherwise-great blog! My first visit to Disneyland was 1967. My best friend Ginny threw up in one of the gardens on Main Street-a combination of excitement and hot weather.
