Welcome to episode 66! On this show we thought we’d give you all a special treat...we share some of our favorite audio from the Disneyland Resort! That’s right, every time we visit the Happiest Place On Earth, we take our trusty Sony personal recorder with us and capture as much audio as we can: from the attractions, the shows and even just the atmospheric stuff! We LOVE the sounds of Disneyland! On this episode, we share some of our favorites. First up, the BEST sound you can hear: the opening of Disneyland for the day! Then a couple that will make you laugh, and laugh, and laugh some more - our good friend Kenny met us at Disneyland one visit and he rode California Screamin’ (and yes, he DID scream!) and the Hollywood Tower Of Terror (and yes, he DID scream!). And some audio from Star Tours and the entire Captain EO show! FUN!!
