Will have to dig mine out to check. The <i>National Geographic</i> Disney issue was my 'guide' for many years before I ever got there. <br /><br />On my very first visit (I was researching a BBC TV show) I was given a human guide, but by midday she was so fed up with taking round this man who appeared to know more about the place than she did that she gave me lunch at the Carnation Ice Cream Parlour and said, rather wearily: "I think I'll let you run around by yourself now..."Brian Sibleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395103557170474777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2296566067826628999.post-24080383624524667002011-05-07T17:25:32.374+01:002011-05-07T17:25:32.374+01:00I am sure the pictures used in the postcards were ...I am sure the pictures used in the postcards were also on my 'Viewmaster' 3D viewer that I had a child. <br /><br />How I dreamed of visiting Disneyland as a child in the 1960's and America seemed as far away as the moon.

We first went to Disneyland in April 1962 and I well remember the Flying Saucers(really neat) and natures Wonderland. Even loved the Old Fantasyland with the 20,000 Leagues Sets. I think it was a better place then!<br />mgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
