Blast From The Past

My nephew's birthday is coming up in a few weeks.  He's going to be 3.  Since the first day he was born, we've been planning a family vacation to Disneyland in 2014.  Now we only have a year to wait.  Why wait?  The main reason we wanted to wait for the new the new CarsLand that opened a few months ago.  The second is that at 4, he'll remember more when looking back at pictures.  The final reason is because we are a planning a trip with 9-11 adults who all have very different schedules. 

So to honor the one year countdown to William's first Disney trip, I wanted to post my favorite ride from when I was that age.  I actually have memories of my first Disneyland visit when I was 18 months old.  But i also remember swallowing a penny when I was 14 months old, so I have a freakishly great memory.  We had family living in Southern California when I was little so by the time I was William's age I could give guided tours.  

In all respects this ride really hasn't gone away, and if we went to Disneyland I'd still get the full effect, if not a better one...... 

drum roll...........


Submarine Voyage.....that was anti climatic.  But truthfully, this ride was the most interesting to me growing up.  Great tumblr site for flask back Submarine Voyage pics.  

The New(er) finding Nemo ride I'm sure is great.  To be honest, I haven't been to Disneyland in decades because our family isn't there any longer and I'm old enough to pick WDW over Disneyland.  I guess we'll see in a year from now.
