Disney..

[nolly]

I've been saying for a while that I'd like to go to Disney before they take PotC down to remodel -- and that has snuck up on me! While StuporBawl Sunday would probably be a good plan, I've got too much backlogged to do it. I'm thinking Presidents' Day, 2/20 (right after Gally). Anyone else up for it? Any tips on cheap tickets?

I'm all over that. I can have my dad get cheap tickets on base (one-day prices are currently $51 for non-park hopper, $64 for park hopper).

A possibility indeed...

Hmm...the SoCal 2fer is only $59 if you buy online, and then you can got to CA Adv. sometime in the next month, which mught be fun...

I'm trying to see if there's a AAA price but the AAA login form is broken...

I'll have to look at the price list my dad e-mailed me again... or get him to get an updated list. They *should* have a price as cheap or cheaper. Theoretically.

$51 is less that $59 but not by much, especially if it's not the 2fer ticket. Let me know what you find out...

Remodel?

OMG why do they have to remodel my favorite ride?
While I liked the movie, remodeling the ride is just dumb.
Too bad I live far away and rarely have time off or extra money :\

They're adding the movie characters to the ride, so it will be the ride based on the movie based on the ride.

Yeah, I read that and I'm sorta upset...

I'm torn...anything that puts more Johnny in the world is good by me, really...but yeah, why muck with a good thing? Which is why I want to at least go once before they re-do it. I've never been to Disneyland!

I've never been to Disneyland!

Sadly, you still won't get to see the *original* PotC ride. They redid it several years ago to be more "PC". *razzlefrazzle stupid right-wing overly conservative we can't have our kids see depictions of real live history idiots grrrrrrr*

I know, but as I recall, it was a pretty small change, really -- all they did was give the women trays of food, right? (The idea, that the pirates were chasing the food rather than the women, was bigger, of course.)

Yeah, better go see it now before it goes bang and disappears in a puff of excessive metaness!

I was actually thinking of proposing a Disney trip to Danny....

We're going on Stupid Bowl Sunday!

[nolly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I saw dieppe's post, but I just can't do it this weekend.

[kshandra]

I wish I had the time (and money) to drive down for this....

[lyzard13.livejournal.com]

When are they taking PotC down?

[nolly.livejournal.com]

3/6 -- I'm not sure if that's the first closed day or the last open day, but I know it's the Monday after Condor.

We'd like to go, but we're so broke we don't think we can afford it.

[esprix.livejournal.com]

Me wanna go. Foo. :(

Disneyland!!!

We went to CA Adventure, and have the 2fer now.. so we'll do 2/20 if you're doing it! :)
