22 Days to Go... to Disneyland!

OK, there are other things on the Disney Parks Blog that I have liked. The Matterhorn and the corresponding Abominable Snowmen have always been a favorite for me. The Matterhorn is one of the unique attractions of Disneyland. I know people say that Expedition Everest is supposed to be its WDW equivalent, but I think the two rides evoke very different feelings. It's sort of like they're telling a similar story, but the Matterhorn is telling it in claymation, and Expedition Everest is computer generated in the year 2000. Anyway, watch for Abominable Snowmen!



The excitement for the Matterhorn bleeds over to real life, too. I took these photos on a flight over the Alps. I was very excited when I saw the Matterhorn on the in-flight map. Usually they have cities on those maps, but in the Alps there's not a lot of cities to put up on there, I guess. I spent a good 15 minutes distracted by the idea that I might get to see the Matterhorn. I lucked out and the Matterhorn was on my side of the plane!
