Yoo Hoo Bruce:
Thanks for your reply, and all of the interesting information about the
Disneyland that used to be.
" BM=> I grew up there (Torrance and Manhattan
Beach) and visited the Park BM=> frequently for thirty years. I still
remember my first visit (it's BM=> actually my earliest memory). The
year was 1958 and my brother and I BM=> tried to hold our breaths while
we drove east on Artesia Blvd. through BM=> the aptly named city of
Dairy Valley. Yoo Hoo, any of you Southern Cal. BM=> EchoEars wanna
guess what the city of Dairy Valley calls itself today?"
Is Dairy Valley now San Fernando?
I grew up in Lompoc, California (about 50 miles north of Santa Barbara).
I am not yet on the WWW, so I can't chat on the internet, but I will
probably call a few days before we get to DL.
Thanks for all the tips.  It's nice that DL has some very different
things than WDW isn't it?
" BM=> You can now get one, two, or three day
passports. Three is a little much BM=> (at least in one dose), but
Fantasmic and the Main Street Electrical BM=> Parade deserve a night
each. I don't know where you got the idea that BM=> Fantasmic cost $35,
it's free like all the parades once you get into the BM=> Park."
We are going for 5 days/4 nights and have purchased the new
Flex-Passport (5 consecutive days for the price of 2 - but you have to
buy them with a package plan or through the mail ahead of time)
Also, I was so tired when I posted that what I meant about Fantasmic was
is it worth it to pay $35 or so to view it from the Disney Gallery
balcony with a dessert buffet.  I wish I had worded this correctly so
people could answer my question (for those who have done this) before I
leave.
"BM=> Have a great time, and tell us all about it when you come home.
(Unless BM=> of course you want to take a laptop and report live!)"
I will report back, but I don't have a laptop, so it will be a while.
