They were both 78 and my MIL got offended when I told the hotel clerk we needed a ground floor room because we had "little old ladies" with us. (She rode Space Mountain and Indy.) You can never be too old or too young for Disneyland. I refuse to say IMO cuz it is fact.

I felt like I had betrayed my Disney roots. I was a fool. And since that day, I refuse to leave Disneyland until my feet are tired, my wallet empty, and I have ridden everything I wanted to from Pirates to Storybook.

It just goes to show that some people don't fully appreciate everything the park has to offer like we do. I really don't see how anybody could be too old for rides like the Jungle Cruise or Mark Twain. Those (along with plenty of others) really seem to have a timeless, ageless quality to them.

My parents have gone twice the last time 71 and 72, my mom and daughter walked fast to Dumbo to ride it first about 7 years ago. Never Too Old, and find new friends.
