Re: Closing the Park. What guests do.
Last Summer we had one guy who wanted to be the last person out of the park. Security literally had to stay behind him urging him to leave. What most guest don't realize it that the Monorail CMs can't leave the park until it has been cleared by security. I saw guest leaving the park over two hours after it had closed. I guess they let them stay that long because they left with armloads of souvenirs. They even had a baby stroller that was overflowing with bags of stuff. I hope there wasn't a baby under all of it.

They probably let the kid behind. ;)
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I have a copy of the Gousha map of California, and in Riverside County, there is (or was) a locality named Hell. Looked it up on Wikipedia, and it said back in 1954 a guy, his wife and son started the town. It was just them, population was 4 at most--probably had somebody running the store, bar and gas station. They left in the early 60s, place was plowed up in 1964 to make way for Interstate 10. But you can still go to Hell, if you really want to, though there isn't much to see....

I was hoofing it out of the Magic Kingdom one evening after a day of research, hoping to beat the fireworks crowd. As I walked through Fantasyland, I heard a young woman's voice call out to me ever so sweetly...
"How'd you like to go to Hell?" which quite stopped me in my tracks.
Yes, it was the lonely operator of Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, bidding me to travel to Nowhere in Particular. How could I decline?
Yeah, traffic was a bitch that night, but she wasn't.

Not sure where this pic was taken, none of the sites I checked in Google image search have where the photo is from.
Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Probably Hell, MI. (approximately 14 miles North of Chrysler's Chelsea (MI) Proving Grounds, or approximately 18 miles Northwest of the house I grew up in (both distances are listed "as the crow flies", not necessarily the true distance using roads)Shorty82 wrote:

The village of Hell in the Cayman Islands has great weather, interesting scenery and a post office where you can send "wish you were here" postcards to your favorite relatives and co-workers... ;)
