Every Monday I scroll through the Lounge and try to find an interesting post for my Sticker Night announcement. This week, I found the following pic from DisneyDiane316:
It was like looking through a window to another time. I could picture myself walking toward the Grand Californian with dramatic movie music in the background, stopping into Smokejumpers for some onion rings, hitting the popcorn stand on the right with my AP bucket, checking (and entering) BOTH the Soarin’ wait time and Fastpass into MouseWait (haha), thinking about hitting White Water Snacks for some nachos later, and hoping that “5” was on Grizzly River Run wait time sign!
I searched the Lounge for “Condor Flats” and I found this old video I posted back in 2013. It was taken from the 5th floor of the Grand Californian at 6:46 am before the Park opened.
I’ve always been intrigued by this entire area and how they seamlessly blended the Grand Californian with Condor Flats (Grizzly Peak Airfield).
When you’re on a computer or a bigger screen, go to DisneyDiane316’s post and look at the larger version of this picture — let me know if you feel the lure of Disney magic pulling you in for yet another adventure!
