Although WDW explicitly invites guests to dress up and show their "Disney side", the Disneyland post mentions no such thing, and the replies to comments don't clear up the ambiguity. So Cal [Select] APs will be blocked out. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'll be generous and put the over/under to the steaming pile at 12.

But I think it's their frumpy nightwear they are wearing. It's not exactly the type of nightwear that makes things interesting at bedtime, let's just put it that way. It also helps explain why there isn't a baby mouse or baby duck in the family.

For those of us traveling long distances, it's a lot more expensive and difficult to travel then, and it seems like the parks are more crowded too. Why not pick a nice quiet off-season weekend to pull in thousands of extra guests, like what WDW does? >>But I think it's their frumpy nightwear they are wearing.<< I'm glad to see that after all these years, Light Magic wasn't a total waste. At least they got these costumes out of it...

Maybe they're saving something like that if Disney is ever is dire circumstances and needs a miracle to save the company. "Hey, everyone, Minnie and Daisy are excepting!"

I even prefer park-specific merchandise to the generic WDW or DL merchandise. I really hate the "Disney Parks"stuff.
