Things I Learned at the Disneyland Resort – A Thursday Thirteen
Disney offers many nutritional options for keeping children quiet.
1. As evidenced by the annoyed people seated next to me on the Nemo Submarine Voyage I get excellent cell-phone reception up to 20,000 leagues under the sea. This despite dead zones in my own home.
2. Until a wrong turn on Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride took me there, I never realized that hell was not just hot but also quite humid- not unlike Florida.
3. After walking through Innoventions I can’t help but feel that Microsoft’s biggest issue is not lack of innovation, but rather a failure to communicate. They make awesome stuff for the home and nobody knows it.
4. Old country bears don’t die, they just retire to the Hundred Acre Woods.
5. If a princess has found her prince she is highly unlikely to kiss a frog, no matter how nicely you ask.
6. The best way to keep pirates from boarding your boat is flash photography.
7. If visiting the parks in February the crowds will be small and the rides will be closed.
8. Not all of the 999 spooks are grim or grinning. At least two ghosts appear indifferent.
9. Should a ride have the word “terror” in its name, there is good chance you may find it somewhat terrifying.
10. Despite Flick’s insistence to the contrary, some bugs deserve to be swatted.
11. The whole thing about human children contaminating monsters is an urban legend.
12. With just 10 Dalmatians Cruella de Vil could have had a nice handbag.
13. A full bar, a winery, a tequila booth and a beer cart are a nice touch.

You know it’s a good life when your cotton candy is bigger than your head.
Thanks, this made me laugh! Never knew flash photography was such a powerful deterrent, maybe that explains why everyone scampers when I pull out the camera?
who knew flash photography was the ultimate pirate weapon? aaargh!
I’m sure they were pretty sedate once the “high” kicked in. Surely he had some help with that mound o cotton candy.
