Also Immediately inside the arch of Sleeping Beauty's Castle is a small brass circular spot on the pavement.
Why is it there?
Also Immediately inside the arch of Sleeping Beauty's Castle is a small brass circular spot on the pavement. This marked the original geographic center of the park (before Toon Town) or so it was thought. But that's not precisely true either. It represents more of the center of the land mass, not the geographic center, as it's too far north for that. It's about the size of a half dollar plainly visible in the pavement

Since the closing of the Skyway between Tomorrowland and Fantasyland, there is only one attraction at Disneyland where the guests are suspended.
What is it?
Peter Pan's Flight (the little pirate ships hang from an overhead rail).

The height of Sleeping Beauty's case is only __ feet above the moat?
Fill in the blank.
The height of Sleeping Beauty's case is only 77 feet above the moat, but does look taller through forced perspective (things are actually smaller as they are higher, thus making them look even further away. This technique is also used on the Matterhorn nearby, and all the buildings on Main Street.

Whats wrong with this pin?

It says Davy Crockett 1947. Only problem was that Disney didn't present Davy Crockett in 1947. Disneyland, the TV show, debuted in 1955, and the Crockett series wasn't presented until 1956.
