I lived near Disneyland in the 70's and 80's. When I was about 10 years old my Uncle got a gig playing saxophone with Si Zentner's Orchestra at The Carnation Restaurant. He was able to comp my cousin, older brother, and me almost every night that summer. It was in the day 's of ticked attractions so most nights we would just linger around the park. Those are some of my best Disneyland memories .....

Attendance is almost double what it was in 1975, but the park is also larger. The vast majority of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, the entire Indiana Jones Adventure ride building and all of Toontown are outside the 1975 park borders. There were packed days in the '70s, and there are dead days now.

That is so nice - thank you fr sharing! Someone did a great job in converting to digital as well. My first visit to Disneyland was July, 1970. A few months later, I entered the Navy and was stationed at the Naval Training Center in San Diego from Sept. - Feb. Sometime in Jan and Feb. I took a bus from the base (which went every Saturday) to Disneyland. It was a great time, especially for a young man from Kansas. I appreciate your sharing this! God Bless

I think everybody has their own "perfect" Disneyland configuration. But this is mine! Ahh. Back in the day when the ticket books kept the crowds dispersed around Disneyland and the lines actually moved! I remember being such an impressionable little kid that I was sure the teetering rocks on the Mine Train were going to flatten us.

That is correct. For me, after having visited the parks during the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s and 20s my favorite time is always the last one (by the way, April 26th with daughters and grandchildren)

Mine Train long gone. Back in 1975, Disneyland was affordable, didn’t have Pride night and a family of four could afford to go to Disneyland and you didn’t need to take out a loan to spend to go. Very disappointed with Disney.
