Disneyland Photos Thread

[Mrs. Bee]

(MODS - not sure if I put this thread in the right place. If not, please move it for me. Thanks.)

Here's a place to post pictures you've taken at Disneyland (the parks, the hotels, downtown disney, etc.) Feel free to post pictures of scenery at DLR or of yourself and/or family and friends enjoying the parks.

Here's a photo of one of my favorite spots at Disneyland. It's the staircase over in New Orleans Square. This was taken last November while it was decorated for Christmas.



And here is the sunwheel (AKA deathwheel) at night...

[Mrs. Bee]

No one likes me thread. Boo. I guess I'll just post more pictures for the heck of it anyway.

The hubby and I on my favorite staircase. February 2006.

I LOVE that staircase! I've never seen it decorated for Christmas so thanks for sharing the pic. And that cactus picture, i have a funny story about it. My boyfriend swore it was mickey shaped and i told him he was crazy. Every time he saw it, he would point and i would shake my head telling him he tried to make EVERYTHING a hidden mickey. LOL i guess he was right after all!

Aw, you two are such a cute couple! Thanks for sharing. I haven't ventured out to Disneyland yet. I'm stuck on WDW.

You must go. It's such a different experience. Disneyland has so much detail that just didn't make it to the Magic Kingdom.
Most people who've grown up at WDW insist that nothing in Anaheim compares to it but I've hit them both up within a pretty short amount of time. Disneyland just has a closer, more intimate feel about it. That does translate to being more crowded from time to time but the detail is truly fantastic.
Some argue that it's crammed into Anaheim and you don't have the secluded feel of WDW but I think the exact opposite. There are areas of the Magic Kingdom that allow to see outside of the park which reveals an openness that almost feels like you're in the middle of nowhere. You don't get that feeling at Disneyland since the experience is so immersive. You really can't see out of the park unless you're on the train or the Monorail. The outside world is hidden very well. It's my favorite park even after visiting the theme park of theme parks.

haha...i doubt it was intentional. that photo was taken a long time ago. every now and then i see one but sometimes i don't.

thanks for the compliment. i think we're pretty cute too...haha. Disneyland is wonderful. if you compare disneyland to the magic kingdom, i think disneyland is a lot better. (i sometimes feel guilty saying that since the magic kingdom is where i went as a child.)

But remember...you also like WDW. It's just a different experience.

WDW - Port Orleans Riverside

how does that sound?

[Mrs. Bee]

Nevermind. I won't be posting anymore photo links here. I've been told that photo links slow the website down. So adios to all my threads!

[WDWizard]

It would be nice if we could just post pictures on here directly like on all the other disney fansites.

Anyways, here are a few pics of mine..

That will never happen. It severely clutters the looks of the boards. That is one thing you'll never see our Web Master change.

I've been told that photo links slow the website down.

I think you misunderstood. You asked in the Kiosk why your threads are getting an error and timing out. John said we were having server issues and I also explained loading links can drastically slow down a thread. No one told you to stop posting them - only suggested posting your photo site as a home page.

You can contact any of us at Management via PM if you have questions.

The way i read it was that my links were slowing the whole board done.

it wasn't just my threads that were dying on me. All the threads I was trying to open would just time out or whatever.

What happened to my posts in this thread??

There were no posts deleted in this thread.

You have posts in the other photo thread in the Trip Reports forum.

[*tinker_belle*]

LOL oops. Thank you Polygirl. For some reason i thought it was this thread.

[Mrs. Bee]

Since the links apparently don't slow the board now. I'm going to continue posting photos.

(I don't know how to make the links into just words like WDWizard)

The teacups. I love them. Graham hates them.


Hidden Mickey on Big Thunder


Main Street decorated for Christmas. It rained that day and I think it made for great photos.


This was taken only a day or two before Graham proposed to me at that very spot! (He proposed at night and it was wonderful!)


This was also taken in March 2005. Matterhorn climbers.

You can turn the links into words by typing what you want, then click and drag to highlight the text you want to be a hyperlink and then use the little Globe with a hyperlink symbol in the text box right under the Smiley Face. Then the pop up comes on your screen you can paste in the link to the photo and voila it all just works. Super easy.
