The End of an Era
Today, January 28, 2010...after almost 15 uninterrupted years of fun, excitement and entertainment (not to mention churros and collectible obsessions), I'm allowing my Disneyland Annual Pass to expire. I realized that I'd been traveling to Disneyland less and less over the past years. And with the cost jumping from around $350 when I renewed at this time last year to almost $440, I could no longer justify the expense. (Plus, I never received any renewal notices or emails from them. But that's beside the point.) So farewell Haunted Mansion. Perhaps one day I shall venture through your darkened always again. Farewell Tower of Terror. We'll always have that moment of weightlessness as the car drops down the elevator shaft. Farewell it's a small world. No more will I hear that song repeatedly pounding through my head.
It's been a good 15 years.

That's quite a change for you...wow! I was just thinking the other day, my last time there was 1986. And before that was 1968.
Now you can use that $$ as a down payment on an iPad! :-D jk!
that was sad !
I havent renewed mine in the last couple of years either. I miss it but I like the money I save.
Wow Greg! I never thought this day would EVER come. I'm sad. Especially since I just renewed mine (on my b-day in Sept.) I actually couldn't pass up the deal of the free birthday ticket and the value of that being offered as the down payment on a SoCal pass, which they let you make $6/month payments for 12 months. So, I got the SoCal AP for $72.00. Which is really perfect. I never could justify the Delux, but shoot, one visit paid for the whole deal. I hope you'll renew someday cuz I know how much you love it. I always hoped that one day, we'd run into each other strolling down Main Street!
