Fantasyland Skyway Station

Here are the last of my Skyway pictures (with the exception of some demolition pictures).  These are all from after the attraction closed and the area was being used for stroller parking and/or character greetings.

Disneyland Monday - Sunset at Cascade Peak

A vintage postcard brings us a lovely Disneyland vista of days gone by.

Mark Twain At Dusk
Dusk comes to Frontierland as the Mark Twain steamboat makes its way past Cascade Mountain on a peaceful trip along the banks of the Rivers of America.

Muppet Vision 3D

Aside from Captain Eo (during its original run with all of the theater effects) this is my favorite of Disney's 3D movies.  The first five of these pictures are from the early 90's.  The rest range in time up to a couple of years ago.






This picture is terribly blurry but I included it for two reasons.  One is the Christmas decorations.  The other is the awning that has been added over the right entry.


One of the many fun things hidden away in the rarely used exterior extended queue.








It's a salute to all nations but mostly America.



"Do we have time to go to the bathroom before the next show?"
"We can't you old fool, we're bolted to the seats!"

Disneyland Monday - Pinocchio's Daring Journey

A fantasyland attraction that we do not have here in Florida, I know I rode Pinocchio when I visited Disneyland but I really don't remember it.

More Fun Than A Barrel Full Of Monkeys

I have many fond memories of Tom Sawyer Island from when I was a kid and the barrel bridge is a big part of them.  The last two times I've been on the island, the barrel bridge and quite a few other things have been closed.


This photo and the next are from 1990.
