Finally, I do indeed miss the copious number of sounds from the original Mine Train Through Nature's Wonderland. But there are still plenty that strike a very familiar chord. Casey Jr for one. The Matterhorn Alice In Wonderland

All the sounds mentioned bring back memories. (Yes, even the sound of a crying child.) But something I have noticed is that while in the park I often *tune out* the background sounds. But when I get home and watch my videos, I notice how obvious they are. There is one where I accidentally left my camera on record so the picture is just the ground, people's butts, feet an occasional fence; but the sounds are still there and more obvious than ever. I love it.

The Primevil World dino's...especially the chirping from the little babies hacting out of the eggs. I LOVE the last line of Fantasmic! from Mickey, "Some imagniation huh-huh!" his laugh is the best! And like everyone else...the train arrival announcement, Walt's speech in morse code at the NOS train station, the banjo and creature noises on PotC, the jungle cruise shot you can hear from Main St....those are my most favorites, I'm sure I'll think of more as I daydream of the park now

And knowing we're "home" again.

Originally Posted By ArchtMig This is a great topic! Makes me want to go to Disneyland so badly! I love all the sounds that everyone has mentioned.

Same sound as at the local cineplex, but it sounds so much better at Disneyland. Extra added bonus - the aroma! I love the sounds at Snow White's Wishing Well - the chimes, Snow White's song, the sound of the waterfall nearby. I love hearing the distant sound of the Mark Twain whistle when I'm outside of the park perimeter. Makes me want to be back inside and on the river.

I am flooded with sounds in my head right now and I love each and everyone!I can not wait to be there in 76 days.....

Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove <<I agree with you, ShivaThDestroyer.

We could hear the soundtrack to the fireworks...hear the crowd oohing and ahhing...and then when Tink started to fly, I just lost it and tears (of happiness) just slid down my cheeks. It was a wonderful moment. Wonderful, wonderful sounds....

I was situated a few feet from the self serve machine they have where you can bring in your own flash drive or memory card and print your own prints from your digital pics. I swear the sounds that machine makes sound EXACTLY like the chimes and whistle sounds that come from the Disneyland turnstiles. Made me really want to be at Disneyland instead of cooped up at Kinko's.
