Disney's Doorway to Dreams

Closing on September 15, 2012.  I guess Disney believes that they've sold as many "Vacation Club" memberships to Chicagoans while they're in Chicagoland that they can sell.

Tour of Wrigley Field

Took the tour of Wrigley Field today for the first time in over 30 years.  Among other things, this tour visited the press box and the field, and there was no risk of seeing the Cubs lose, because it was an off-day.   Lots of photos added to the end of the Chicago slideshow on ASD's Home Town Chicago page.  Here is a sampling.

Disneyland Souvenir Guide 1984

From my second visit to Disneyland (Summer 1984).

I previously posted my 1984 Disneyland Passport.

You can see many of my Disneyland photos and videos from 1996-2009 elsewhere in this Blog and at my website ASDHollywood.com.

Astro Orbiter - Magic Kingdom 2012

I think this was my first ride on the Astro Orbiter since an E-Ride night back in September 2000.

Flying Past Walt Disney World - April 24, 2012

This is the first time I ever saw the entire Walt Disney World Resort by air -- or, at least, the first time I knew it was Walt Disney World.  Perfect skies helped and since the plane is headed south, we traveled along the entire Resort from North to South to make our landing at MCO by approaching it from the South.

Back from another visit to Disney World

April 24 to 30, 2012 -- first trip in a long time without my laptop!

More photos coming to the site soon!

Chicago's Lincoln Park

Hard to believe the number of beautiful days we've had in March 2012.
(Most years, that number would be negative 31.)

Driving in Chicago - March 18, 2012

80º day, blue sky day in March?
Time for a drive around downtown with the iPhone suction mounted to the windshield.
