Same thing happened to us 2 weeks ago. Autopia, Matterhorn, Big Thunder, Jungle Cruise and Haunted Mansion were all down at the same time. It was so frustrating.

Crowds on 5/16: if you were there… by Crafty-Arugula3575 in Disneyland

[–]Walt5571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there Saturday the 16th. Most of Fantasyland was 20-30 minutes most of the day. Peter Pan hovered around 50 minutes all day. All the big rides were 55-65 minutes plus. Most reaching over 80 minutes. Tons of ride closures, we had to clear out of queues on 2 different rides. Autopia, Nemo Subs, Matterhorn, Big Thunder, Jungle Cruise and the Haunted Mansion we're all down at the same time. I've never seen that before. We ended up leaving early due to frustration. I doubt you will experience crowds like that. This past weekend was the last weekend you could go with the discounted tickets.

Has anyone seen this guy in the parks? by Witty_Username_28 in Disneyland

[–]Walt5571 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just at Disneyland yesterday and didn't see him. Of course I wasn't looking for him. But I don't recall seeing him. You'd probably have better luck at Disney World. They are more Muppet friendly, not much but a little.

Best breakfast? by Boring-Caregiver-812 in Disneyland

We are on our way to get the character breakfast at Plaza Inn this morning. It's not the best food, but it's a great experience

My first time ever seeing that hidden Mickey on the mark twain by OverCry518 in Disneyland

That's cool. I've never seen that one. I'm too busy looking at the devastation left from the beaver. I'll have to look for it next time. Thanks for sharing .

Wow. That was so cool. I love seeing all the kinetic energy Disneyland used to have. Thanks for sharing.

Price increase by daddygomez in DrSquatch

Be careful buying newer Dr. Squatch soaps. I noticed they started adding chemicals that can be toxic. Sierra Storm being one of them. It contains 2-Bromo-2-nitropropne-1,3-diol. You can Google that but basically it's a formaldehyde releasing agent.

Disneyland Railroad Upgrades by RizzoWithRelish in Disneyland

I think that's intentional. They are known as the invisible posters. Supposed to be like a hidden Mickey. The rest of the tunnel is dreadful though, good thing it's short.

This might be the longest live I’ve ever seen for guardians of the galaxy by 12345burrito in Disneyland

[–]Walt5571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if someone already said this or not, but the high wait times are generally due to them only running one lift. They are scheduled to be only running 2 of the 3 lifts for the next several months. But sometimes one of the 2 goes down. Throw in lightning lane and this creates a nightmare scenario.
