Gone But Not Forgotten – 1st Annual Fan Boy Trip

After finally resting up and drying my tears at being missed by the other Fan Boys, I finally get to relay my trip report. I arrived at Downtown Disney late Thursday morning, on the hunt for a Full Montague.

Gone But Not Forgotten – Disney Skyways

After 4 months of eager anticipation, I am pleased to announce an opening in my busy schedule of doing nothing to post my own cutting tribute to Disney’s Skyway. The Disneyland Skyway opened in 1956 and closed in 1994. Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom in 1971, closing in 1999, and in Tokyo Disney in 1983, closing in 1998. For … Continue reading »
