An "E" ticket trip down memory lane...

For those of us in our forties, we remember a different kind of Disneyland than our younger friends. We remember the days of ride tickets instead of the modern day - pay once, ride all - concept (which I truly prefer). We didn't know it at the time, but the phrase "E - ticket ride" would transcend generations and become a true measure of ride worthiness for years to come. All because Disney decided to class their ticket coupon values with letters.

As Disney prepares to celebrate the 55th Birthday of Disneyland Park, they are unveiling some retro-styled souvenirs, including a memo pad sporting the old "E" ticket artwork! Oh, the memories.
It's hard to believe my first trip to Disneyland was over 30 years ago. Since then I have been to both Disneyland and Disney World more times than I can count. It never disappoints....the magic is always there for me. Like an old friend...always growing and evolving, yet still deep inside, always the same.

enjoy the e-ticket moments in your life!
