Ahh, speaking of the price increases!
Go to UndercoverTourist.com. They are an authorized Disney reseller, and they have some (a few) tickets left over from before the price increase. If you are serious about going later this year or early next year, go ahead and buy your multi-day parkhopper passes now.
If you like the Buzz Lightyear target ride, it is over in DL - where you'd expect to ride that silly Stitch escape ride - formerly Mission To Mars (and the moon in the 80's). Also, you will find that where the Monsters Laugh Stage (previously TImekeeper, Monsanto Circle Theater) is where the Star Wars 3D ride is. It is really cool if you are familiar with the MK at WDW, because you will walk up to some ride expecting it to be here, and it isn't!
The first time I went to a Disney Property was in 1980. I was on my first liberty (day off) from Boot Camp, and I was amazed. Being raised a poor kid, we never took a vacation while I was at home. That place truly was magic to a 17 year old county boy. When I returned to Orlando (for Naval Nuclear Power School) I went to WDW as often as I could afford - which (sadly) was only about twice more before I transferred. I remember them building the Space Ship Earth geodesic Dome in Epcot. It could be vaguely seen from the now missing cable cars. I also got to visit DL in 1981 while stationed in San Diego for a welding school. That was also great!
Anyway - keeping it on topic - you will find a neat little surprise on the Disneyland version of their railroad. It's near the end, and I won't spoil it for you. Also, (keeping on trains) - rolling stock - important notice! If you get to the park at opening, make a beeline for the train station and talk to one of the attendants there. If they are running the Lilly Belle, sign up for a ride on it. The reservation list fills up very quickly. It is a parlor car ride not to be missed.
Now derailed again - hey, my spellchecker is now working. While I type! Hallelujah!
