Dateline Disney

1967: The very first Pirates of the Caribbean attraction opens at the Disneyland Park in California.


Walt and the pirates

Walt Disney visits Imagineering to check on the pirates that will populate the attraction.

Originally developed as a a walk-through wax museum, the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction was revised after the success of it's a small world at the 1964/1965 New York World's Fair. That ride proved boats could be a better way to move more Guest through an attraction. In addition to improved ride technology, breakthroughs in the development of audio-animatronic figures (created by Walt Disney Imagineers) also for the World Fair made the Pirates of the Carribean attraction much more than a walk-through museum!

2 Years since I won Best Game Room! Wow!

Thanks for the cute lil' red flips icon.. haha.
So glad for these threads BTW, even if I don't reply I read 'em, they really do bring back some memories.

I actually remember when VMK_Koala came into my room. I had left the room briefly to get something, and she was there when I came back. She said something along the lines of "owner can you face the screen please for pic" Everyone just said Best Game Room! Loved hosting that.. woot!

Thanks VMKF.

I love the Spring 2008 Pin - the colors of the Easter Egg are so cute! I really like how we have "This Week In VMK", it gives me good memories of what happened in the past and what my VMK friends and I experienced.

Yeah, I remember I was obsessed with that green barrel chair. I played pirates all day and at the end I bought 62 :P.
