Where in the World is Yavn and JP and patti??

[Chescat]

Patti is right. Its in Indiana Jones Adventure. A skeleton is wearing a Mickey Mouse watch. The skeleton flies out from the wall at you from the right side. It can be found after you see Mara and the bridge for the first time. You swing a few dark turns, then enter an area with a lot of skeletons. It comes up pretty fast.

Sorry I took so long responding was at DLR today with christinedog and just got home.

You through me off with the animated character part

The skeleton is animated. He moves around.

[TinkRocks]

Animated / Animatronic - it's all the same thing, dontcha know...

Now if we could just fin Patti to post the next clue

[Patricia]

I got it?!?

I rock..

I think Yavn decided to think BIG. He is on the largest attraction you will find in a Disney Theme Park.

Now if we could just fin Patti to post the next clue

I've been trying to "fin patti" for about five years now, and she is quite obstinate about not being finned. And between you and me, I'm losing my patience.

Ricks (who has no idea what the largest attraction is... but he'll go with.... Kilimanajaro Safaris!)

[Patricia]

That's it. I'm fin with this game!

You got that correct in 6 minutes.. I guess it was too easy.

[RicksCafe]

I guess it was too easy.

As I tell those I conquer in pirates: you're not bad, I'm just that good. Well, me and me matey anyway.

My monkey sources tell me that Yavn is hanging out at the only ride that was open in Adventureland when the world changed in Nineteen Hundred and "Fin"-ny Five.

Ricks (who will fin patti yet, you just watch)

[WDWfanatic742]

Haha, I got it.

My internet sources tell me that yavn is hiding in The Jungle Cruise.

- Adventureland had only one ride which was the Jungle Cruise.

- Tomorrowland had more exhibits than rides. There were rides and exhibits that are now long gone: the Aluminum Hall of Fame, Rocket to the Moon, a 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea exhibit and Space Station X-1.

- Frontierland had only stage coach rides.

- Fantasyland had rides that are still open today: King Arthur Carousel, Snow White's Adventures, Dumbo, and the kid-terrifying Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Your also missing Peter Pan, Mad Tea Party, Storybook Land Canals, Autopia, and Casey Jr. Circus Train. I remember this because of the 50th and each of these had a gold vehicle. Snow White did not have a gold vehicle for some reason, but it did open at park opening.

Also just looked and Mark Twain and Railroad were going also. Disneyland website has the rides marked that were 1955 Originals.

My grandfather took a movie when they went to the park about 4 or 5 months after it opened. I remember seeing the boat. Also my favorite thing back then was the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship in Fantasyland.

[WDWfanatic742]

Hmm, I knew that. Totally forgot about the rest of those Fantasyland rides. That would be a weird park. No BTMRR, Splash, Space, Matterhorn, Pirates, Mansion

[Chescat]

Yeah we were boring people back then, right Nachocat! Didn't take much to excite us.


But at least back then they let us bump cars on the autopia. One time we had a 15 car bump! We did have the Mine Train and the Matterhorn after 1959 though.

[mickeytinkerbellprincess]

Wow Fan, do you have to give us a mile-length report?

[WDWfanatic742]

Opening day incidents on July 17th, 1955:

- 90 million watched via a live television broadcast.

- Guest list of 15,000 swelled to almost 30,000 attendees.

- Local police dubbed the seven-mile freeway backup the worst mess they had ever seen.

- Rides and attractions broke down under the unslaught of guests, opening and closing periodically to make way for television crews.

- Fantasyland closed temporarily due to a gas leak.

- Main Street's freshly-poured asphalt softened in the heat. Women wearing high heels sometimes left a shoe behind, stuck in black goo.

- Because of a plumber's strike, both restrooms and drinking fountains could not be ready by opening day. Walt opted for restrooms, leaving visitors hot and thirsty.

What a wonderful history lesson, Fan and Cat.

And after that 1,000 page dissertation, all I have to say is... Fan wins! Go to it, boy.

Ricks (who would not be sitting here right now if he had that Chicken of the Sea pirate ship in his backyard)

[WDWfanatic742]

My internet sources are telling me that yavn is hiding in this ride, with the help of it's mail carrying sponser, provided the chance to go up, up and away at Walt Disney World in the old days.

Oops, just re-read my question and it sounds like the ride is not there anymore. The ride is there now, just the sponser isn't sponsering it anymore. There is no sponser nowadays also.

[chrisb26]

Would Yavn have taken a trip to the past and is now riding Delta Dreamflight?

[WDWfanatic742]

Nope, not it but a good guess. He's somewhere close in that area though...

[Chescat]

Space Mountain and sponsor was Federal Express? (I know they used to be for DLR one)

If its right I want Dino to ask the next question.
