A fellow CM just recently posted a magnet from this site up on the lockers in the Fantasyland Classics office and I have been LOVING the stories so far. I've only been working at the park for a year, but here's my best one:
I'm on my way to break when I spot a woman with several small children swarming at her feet pouring over her map. I stop to ask if I can point her in the right direction. She is totally frustrated and begins jabbing with her finger at each land in the park. "I see Fantasyland," she says. "I see Tomorrowland, I see Frontierland, I see Adventureland. WHERE is DISNEYLAND?!?"
I thought perhaps she was joking. But no. I explained to her that the park itself is called Disneyland and that each of the areas on the map is simply a part of the larger park. She seemed relieved, thanked me, and headed off with her kids.
Where did she think she was? I mean, before she and the kids got in the car that morning, what had she been calling their destination? "Hey, kids, it's time to go to that-park-Walt-Disney-created. Let's go!"
I thought it would have been humorous to give her very detailed directions: Walk through the castle and down to the end of Main Street. Exit through the gates there and to your right. Board the shuttle that you find there. It will stop at the parking structure, but don't get off there, get off at the SECOND stop. You'l see entrance gates on your left and right. Go through the ones on the left and you'll be in Disneyland.

"Dreams are as portals,
flat visions of misty places,
fragments bound below my surface,
but I can write dreams,
they flow from me,
inscribed but now unbound,
I touch them,
and they are real,
and they are real."
