Splash Mountain Single Rider Line

I just tried this out for the first time last week.  With the new log configuration, there is now an ever-present single rider line that starts from the exit. Just walk all the way through until you see an attendant right where the logs unload.  Tell them you are a single rider and you will be directed over the bridge and into a third line feeding in to the loading area.

In my case, I was placed in a log with a single family.  Since they did not follow directions correctly, I ended up seated behind the father in the front of the log, instead of the rear seat, where I had been intended to sit.

Summer Nightastic June 11 through August 29 and will feature:

• “Fantasmic!” – The classic show on the Rivers of America was just enhanced last year with a fully animated 40-foot-tall dragon, cutting-edge digital video technology and an appearance by Flotsam and Jetsam, the slithering eels who serve Ursula the Sea Witch in “The Little Mermaid.”
• “Magical” – The fireworks show over Sleeping Beauty Castle features a host of characters, including Tinker Bell and an airborne Dumbo.
• TLT Dance Club – Dance the night away at this dance club in Tomorrowland Terrace in Disneyland park, where live bands and DJs from the hottest Southern California radio stations will appear on selected nights throughout the summer.

Disneyland is Green

Last year more than 43,000 tons of material was diverted from landfills through recycling and donations at Disneyland Resort which is enough trash to nearly fill Space Mountain!  Imagine that.
