Soundscapes: Disneyland's Tomorrowland ----- Want More Here With The Magic? Watch the Show: https://www.herewiththemagic.com/show Visit The Website: https://herewiththemagic.com Watch Here: https://www.youtube.com/HereWithTheMagic Connect on Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/herewiththemagic Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/herewiththemagic/ -- When I think of Disneyland, I feel an instant nostalgic sense of joy. As the original Magic Kingdom and the only park Walt knew intimately and saw to completion, we as Disney lovers and lifers seem to have an inherent attachment to the place that inspires a soul-stirring, heart-soaring feeling every time we step beyond its gates. What's weird is that my couple of childhood trips were actually to Walt Disney World. I didn't visit Disneyland until decades later. But still, there's this unmistakable feeling of nostalgia that I think many of us find at Disneyland. We know that Magic lives Here. We don't need to have experienced it as children to feel it. It's so powerful here, that it brings forth that inner child, regardless of age. And, for me, there may be no place where I feel that inner child leaping forward more than in Tomorrowland. All around this space, there is an abundant joy -- laughter of current guests and echoes from family vacations long past. Waves from little hands flying rocket ships and faces alight with the wonder of new discovery, and in search of galaxies far, far, away. Even the techno-futuristic music seems to carry a nostalgic tune throughout the entire land. And though Tomorrowland is often classified as the place for thrill-seekers, there's something Here for those of us who enjoy a slower pace. The rooftop queue of the mighty Space Mountain, the sprawling retro-classic bandstand at the Tomorrowland Terrace, the lagoon at the reimagined submarine voyage…quiet spaces to pause and reflect. And it makes for great people watching too -- and listening! It's hard to explain Tomorrowland to someone who's never visited. Essentially, it's a dream that keeps on dreaming. A future that never was, but could someday be. But before we can get to Tomorrow, we have to immerse ourselves in the right now, because today holds all the Magic we need for this moment. Right here in Tomorrowland, where the future has arrived.

Guests visit the island by traveling on a motorized raft which is piloted by a Disneyland Cast Member. The short 3D Jamboree features the famous Mouseketeers and their leader Jimmy Dodd. The presentation includes the animated shorts Melody and Working for Peanuts all in 3D. Storybook Land Canal Boats (originally known as Canal Boats of the World in 1955) features 13 boats (powered by outboard motors) afloat in 465,000 gallons of water.1958:Disneyland's Columbia ship opens on the Rivers of America. It is a full-scale version of the first ship to carry the American flag around the world. It actually was built in large part from the plans for the HMS Bounty (of mutiny fame). Disney's shipbuilders couldn't find plans for the original Columbia, so they relied heavily on those of Captain Bligh's ship, which had similar dimensions. It has cost $300,000 to build. Fowler's Harbor (named after Admiral Joseph Fowler, who helped to build Disneyland) is also officially opened on this day to dock the new ship. A dedication ceremony takes place with Fowler and Walt Disney himself in attendanceThe Disneyland attraction Alice in Wonderland debuts in Fantasyland. Actress, Kathryn Beaumont, voice of Alice in the 1951 animated movie, provides the voice for the dark ride. It follows the path of the movie, as the riders (as Alice) follow the White Rabbit down the Rabbit Hole into Wonderland. Disneyland's first "Alice" attraction - Mad Tea Party (a spinning tea cup ride), has been operating since the park's debut in July 19551959:Three major attractions are christened at Disneyland on this day:The first urban monorail system in the U.S., the Disneyland-Alweg Monorail System, begins operation in California's Disneyland. The two Mark I trains run on a .8 mile track around Tomorrowland. Walt Disney and U.S. Vice president Nixon and their families are on hand for the dedication of the "Highway in the Sky." (In June 1961, the Monorail will become a true transportation link instead of just a sightseeing ride. With an extended 2 1/2 mile track, Disneyland Hotel guests will be able to board the Monorail at the hotel and begin their park visit in Tomorrowland.)Also on this day at Disneyland, the Matterhorn Mountain with its Matterhorn Bobsleds, opens. Modeled after the Matterhorn, a real mountain in the Swiss Alps, it is the first roller coaster to use cylindrical rails and urethane wheels (which will become standard in the roller coaster industry). At 147 feet tall, the Matterhorn contains 500 tons of structural steel. The ride consists of two separate tracks that run somewhat parallel to each other for much of the ride, intertwining and eventually deviating from each other at the loading areas.The Submarine Voyage ride is officially dedicated on this day as well in Tomorrowland (although it has has been open since June 6). The attraction has cost about $2.5 million to create. The Nautilus and 7 sister submarines - the Triton, Sea Wolf, Skate, Skipjack, George Washington, Patrick Henry, and Ethan Allen allow 38 Disneyland guests at a time to take their own voyage to the North Pole. For the dedication of the new Submarine Voyage attraction the opening ceremonies feature eight live mermaids performing a synchronized swimming ballet in the lagoon.Mrs. Mildred Nelson, wife of the chief machinist on the the first nuclear-powered submarine, USS Nautilus,helps Walt Disney christen the sub D-301, appropriately named Nautilus. Also taking place at 1:30 is a special dedication parade specifically designedfor this day's festivities. The parade and all the day's events are filmed for an ABC television special to be titled Kodak Presents Disneyland ’59.1967:The Club 33 restaurant (for members-only) opens at 33 Royal Street, in New Orleans Square at Disneyland. It is comprised of two dining rooms and several adjoining areas, all of which hold a wide array of magnificent antiques and original works of art. A secret feature of the theme park, the entrance of the private club is located next to the Blue Bayou Restaurant at "33 Royal Street" with the entrance recognizable by an ornate address plate with the number 33 engraved on it.1971:The All American College Band performs for the very first time at Disneyland. The All-American College Band, made up of musicians from colleges all across the United States, will perform for 11 weeks throughout the summer (and become a yearly tradition).1972:The Main Street Electric Parade kicks off at Disneyland for the very first time. The floats include the Blue Fairy, Casey Junior Circus Train, Alice In Wonderland, Chinese Dragon, Dumbo’s Circus, Cinderella’s Ball, "it’s a small world", and the American Finale.1974:Disney World’s "Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue" dinner show debuts in Pioneer Hall at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. Created as a college workshop summer production only, guest response will be so positive that Walt Disney World entertainment will continue the show with a permanent professional cast at the end of the 1974 summer! 1975:Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln returns to Disneyland after being replaced in 1973 with The Walt Disney Story.1983:The Disneyland parade Flights of Fantasy, which celebrates the opening of the New Fantasyland, debuts.1999:Disney's animated feature Tarzan premieres in the U.S. at the El Capitan Theater in HollywoodThe computer controlled sign that welcomes guests to the main entrance of Disneyland's parking lot is removed. Its site will be absorbed into the new California Adventure area. (This is only the second sign to greet guests as they entered Disneyland in the park's 44 year history. The original marquee, erected in 1958, had letters that had to be changed by hand!) Disney's 37th animated feature Tarzan is generally released in the U.S.2010:Toy Story 3 has its worldwide premiere at Taormina Film Fest in Italy.

In the end, only a handful were chosen to be fitted for their own starfish bras and plastic tails.After that initial summer, they reappeared for only three more seasons between 1965 and 1967.Matterhorn Mountain ClimbersHaving real mountain climbers on the mountain is a tradition started by Walt Disney in 1959 when the attraction openedClimbers have to undergo a 40 hour training in order to be able to climbPooper scooperCustodial workers push the “honey cart”Audio-animatronics special project leadsdress animatronic characters on rides like Pirates of the Caribbean, Splash Mountain, and It's a Small World.The cast members are also responsible for frequently replacing garments so that the ride always looks new to visitors.

Think about that for a second, in a single year Walt Disney and Disneyland introduced the first steel roller coaster in the world, the first daily operating monorail in North America and the only submarine fleet that didn’t belong to a Navy.

“But afterwards there occurred violent earthquakes and floods: and in a single day and night of misfortune all your warlike men in a body sank into the earth, and the island of Atlantis in like manner disappeared into the depths of the sea.” - Plato For millennia, the legend of Atlantis has inspired tales of an amazingly advanced civilization that disappeared beneath the waves, never to be seen again. The lost continent too has provided much inspiration in the world of location-based entertainment. Let’s take a look at some of the most well known examples of the Antediluvian world in LBE. Let's start way back in 1959, with the opening of a massive expansion to Disneyland in California, the Submarine Voyage. Inspired in part by the 1954 Disney film 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, the Submarine Voyage, after passing through deep waters beyond the domain of light come across the lost city and the volcano which caused it’s destruction. 12 years later, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea opened at Magic Kingdom in Florida and again featured a visit to the lost city. Disney also included the city in their latest iteration of the Submarine experience, integrating it into the story of their 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea attraction at Tokyo DisneySea. There, the citizens of Atlantis actually assist Guests in returning to their submarine base. Before heading away from Disney, it’s also an interesting tidbit to know that Disney had considered using their 2001 film, Atlantis: The Lost Empire as a theme to re-imagineer the original Submarine Voyage. They even went so far as to include an Atlantis Expedition teaser to the attraction’s lagoon at one point during a nine-year closure from 1998 to 2007. Eventually the attraction reopened as a Finding Nemo experience, due to lackluster performance of the Atlantis film. Next, let’s hop across Orlando to a park that, perhaps was most appropriate to host an Atlantis attraction, SeaWorld. In 1998, Journey to Atlantis, a highly themed Mack water coaster opened at the back of the park. This attraction housed in a 6 acre, 10 story-high recreation of Minoan architecture was an amazing entry by SeaWorld into the themed entertainment game. The ride’s story, while somewhat muddled and uncertain, was enough to propel this experience into the realm of world-class attractions. However, since its opening, many of the effects have been left to decay and as of this broadcast, the theme of the original Journey is all but lost. SeaWorld followed up this attraction with new iterations in San Diego and San Antonio, but each subsequent iteration lost more and more of the theming and story elements that made the original so unique and alluring, favoring instead the simple thrills of the water coaster elements. Also in 1998, the lost city made an appearance in a most unlikely place, the deserts of Nevada. Race for Atlantis, an Imax 3-D motion based simulator opened at the Forum Shops at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. This same attraction also found a home in Germany at Phantasialand in Bruhl. Unfortunately, both versions of this attraction closed in 2016. Moving ahead just slightly, Universal Orlando, in 1999, revisited Atlantis with their epic walkthrough attraction Poseidon's Fury at Islands of Adventure . Not only does this multimedia adventure incorporate a thriving underwater city in it’s thrilling conclusion, the very show building itself, representing the Temple of Poseidon, would certainly be at home on the Lost Continent. At Legoland Windsor, the two truly became one with the development of the Atlantis Submarine Adventure. Housed in a uniquely decorated show building, this attraction takes the Disney submarine experience and adds it into an authentic marine environment.

http://www.attractionchecklist.com - This episode Suzie and I head to Disneyland to ride and review Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage! Recorded on February 7, 2019. TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. This episode Suzie and I visit Disneyland to ride the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. Located in Tomorrowland, Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage is described on the Disneyland website by saying: Journey into the charming world of Disney·Pixar’s Finding Nemo on a gentle undersea expedition. There are no age or height requirements for this attraction and the Thrill Level describes the ride as being a slow water ride that is Dark and Loud. Before we dive somewhere beyond the sea, here are five fast facts about the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. 1. Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage opened officially on June 11, 2007. It was a retime of the classic Submarine Voyage attraction that operated at the park from 1959 to 1998. 2. After the original Submarine Voyage was closed, sever different ideas for retheming the attraction around Disney properties were developed. These included rides based on Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Treasure Planet and even The Little Mermaid. Around 2004, the decision was made to give the ride a theme based on the Disney·Pixar film, Finding Nemo. 3. The Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage attraction holds a whopping 6,300,000 gallons of water! 4. The rides eight submarine vehicles are original to the 1959 Submarine Voyage attraction. When the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage opened in 2007, all but one of the submarines were renamed. The one that remained the same was the Nautilus. 5. Listen carefully to the Captain’s spiel at the end of the ride. He mentions surfacing before we have a run-in with a sea-serpent or an encounter with a mermaid. These are tributes to the classic Submarine Voyage attraction where both of those fantastical events took place. Now let’s climb aboard our submarine and see if we can find Nemo and friends. Suzie is along for the ride and after the voyage we’ll give you our thoughts on this attraction. This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we experience Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage at Disneyland.
