Welcome to 1957. Welcome to… Giraffic Park #JungleCruise #VintageDisney #DisSky

Back in 2004 I left the Jungle Cruise. I would be back 2 other times, but this was the end of an era for me… Still friends with most of the people here #DisSky #Junglecruise #Skipperlife

When the Enchanted Tiki Room opened in 1963, it cost an extra $.75 for guests to see the show. In 2015 dollars, that is about $5.65, for a 15 minute show. This image from a set of images from the opening week of the show, where you have Walt showing the Tiki hosts the amazing sights and sounds.

Another great look at the Jungle Cruise dock, circa 1960. This was a great angle for this photo, off the back of a departing boat, and shows the 2nd floor observation tower, as well as the loading area.

60 years ago? Still holds a place in so many hearts, and that darn song… #DisSky #wdw #Vintagedisney

Some people think modern #JungleCruise Skippers have a twisted sense of humor, but this 1960’s Valentine shows where we got it from… #DisSky

Happy Wednesdays with happy memories of exploring #disneyland and #junglecruise

Even the #Disneyland #JungleCruise elephants hang out backstage on their breaks…

They took too many notes from Pirates’ success. I honestly think if this movie had a lot more “Romancing the Stone” type of adventure it would have connected better with audiences…

The early days of the Jungle Cruise had a lot of costume variations. Somehow, flip flops for loaders would not last long.

A little Friday morning magic... This time from 1956. The Jungle Cruise had only been open a year, and the Irrawaddy Woman was still the pristine pride of the fleet. (Except for the giant scrape down the side...) This one feels like a Kodachrome slide, and check out the costume on the dock worker

Howdy Bluesky… so far I like what I’m seeing…
