Singapore Sal's Saleable Salvage

Another new and old comparison today.  Not much has changed at Sal's over the years.  A few minor adjustments to the sign and props have taken place and the merchandise inside has gotten a lot more boring.

The first two pictures are newish, the last two are from 1990.

Notice there a fewer props on the roof and there is a shark bite out of the surfboard "Souvenirs" sign.

Humonga Kowabunga

This slide used to scare the crap out of me as I suffer from acrophobia.  This was back in the days before they enclosed the upper parts of the slides in tubes.  In the olden days of Typhoon Lagoon, the slides were completely open to the air and when you sat down at the top of the slide to await the go signal it was like sitting on the edge of a cliff.

The first three pictures below are from the last couple of years.  The fourth and final picture is from some time between 1989 and 1991 and shows the slides before the installation of the tubes.

The Humunga Kowabunga with the Miss Tilly rising above it.  This is a pretty old picture circa 1990 or so.

Views From Castaway Creek, The Finale

Far above the canyon intrepid explorers cross this rickety bridge to brave the wilds of the jungle paths high atop Mount Mayday.

Still More Views From Castaway Creek

Gazing up through the treetops while basking in the sun.

Miss Tilly towers above the creek.

A dark and mysterious cave awaits us.

Here are some pictures taken while rafting on Castaway Creek on the 19th.  There are plenty more of these to come.

It may have been 96 degrees but I felt perfectly refreshed in the waters of the Creek.

Call a plumber!  The waterworks has sprung a leak.

I forget to set up a post today and I'm off to Typhoon Lagoon for the day.  Here links to former posts.  http://disneyvacationkingdom.blogspot.com/search/label/Typhoon%20Lagoon

High & Dry Towel Rental

A little Typoon Lagoon in celebration of the parks 22nd birthday this week.  It makes me feel old to think that I first visited Typhoon Lagoon within the first couple of weeks of its opening.

Let the current leisurely push you along as you enjoy the sights and sounds of Typhoon Lagoon.
