A little more Disneyland trivia

Here's a few more Disneyland trivia tidbits for my pal Matt (just because he asked):

  • The huge ship that's attacking the fort in the Pirates of the Caribbean is called the Wicked Wench - the name of the ship is actually painted on the stern, but it's in a place no one can see from the ride!
  • The "bench cars" on the Casey Jr. Circus Train were taken from the original 1922 carousel that was purchased for the park, which was converted to all horses.
  • Disneyland's water system for the various attractions is all interconnected! It starts at the Storybook Land Canal Boats, runs to the lagoon by the old Submarine Voyage, then to the castle moat, then to the Jungle Cruise, and finally to the Rivers of America (where the Mark Twain steams along), and then pumped back to Storybook Land.

    Speaking of Anaheim, I guess this wasn't the year for the Angels in the playoffs. My theory is the Boston players were just so damn ugly that the Angels were too distracted to play well. I'm just happy they won their division - I'll still be rooting next year!
