Originally Posted By Ursula Thanks, Doobie. Now I know I'm not crazy when I go to the park alone. I mostly end up on Main Street and rarely do much of anything else except shop when I'm flying solo.

Originally Posted By pammywood Thanks for that nice article. Sure makes me homesick. I've never been to Disneyland alone, but I always wanted to try it. And you know, I've never seen that porch before. If I could go alone, I'd do more exploring. Usually the people I would go with didn't want to spend too much time on things like that. I'll have to check it out next time I'm there! Oh, and I'm also glad to know that Rod Miller is still there. I hadn't seen him in ages! ;o)

Originally Posted By jbatdorf I know what you mean about going to the park alone every now and then! I went by myself one evening and ended up staying until closing and had a blast! LIke you - I did a lot of shopping, watched Blast! and Fantasmic. Had some food, and of course, I had to go on my favorite rides, Saoring, Space Mountain and Indiana Jones. It's that trip I discovered the "single" pass for Indiana! What a great trick! Thanks for your update! It was fun to read.

Originally Posted By iceknyght Nice article.. I finally got to enjoy DL and DCA by myself my last trip, and I agree, it's great. Not that with other people it isn't great, but still had fun. Hopefully, next time I make it there, I will have another visit by myself.. It's quite relaxing... And I can't wait for the next Disney Trivia radio show.. I loved the last one! 8

Originally Posted By Inspector 57 Thanks, Doobie! I really enjoyed that relaxing virtual visit to the Parks. Your observations about "little" things (other guests, lack of banners, etc.) made it seem especially real.
Originally Posted By Mr X That was a nice report to read! Sounds like you had a good time chillin! NOW, *I* wanna know exactly where that porch is, so I can sit down there when I go to Disneyland the next time! AND, one more thing, your report has MOTIVATED me to make some kind of solo trip into TDL and/or TDS sometime in the near future (I love hangin with FGM, and friends, and all...BUT there is something to be said for just wandering into the parks by yourself, which I used to do quite often in Orlando but seldom here in Japan)... THANK YOU for the cool article... Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY (I suppose it's past now...but hey I'm on Asia time so who knows right?)!
Originally Posted By friendofdd Thanks Doobie. It brought back memories of the time I lived close to the park and one of every three visits were solo. Sometimes, when you sit very quietly on the porch, people stop and speculate if you are part of the show. It is also a great place for parade watching.
Originally Posted By Disfan1022 Ahhh, nothing like a relaxing afternoon at the park. That will be me starting later this year for a long time to come. =)
Originally Posted By cstephens For those who don't know where the porch is, it's on Main Street, on the right side as you're walking towards the hub from Town Square, right next to the silhouette shop. It's a great place to relax and people-watch, and tucked away a bit so many people don't notice it. I spent many a Saturday night and/or Sunday morning there. Great meeting place too. /cs
