Great video. I lived in Costa Mesa back then and was at DL about every two weeks in 1967. I've posted one of our 8mm home movies here as well but not nearly as well digitized as yours.

@jrkelm Thanks! I don't regret spending the extra money to have a professional film lab do the transfer. Debenham Media Group in Pennsylvania did an excellent job.

whats that music at 2:49?I hear that at hotels all the time

[disneytim]

It's a generic music bed from my video editing software. It might be similar, but it's probably not a track heard at the hotels.

I miss the old Disneyland . I hate the new look and even the shopping sucks all they sell are pins. I miss how each store had a theme and was different and had different merchandise it seems now you go in one store you seen them all. Who ever made these changes needs to get fired. I went there recently and I was disapointed and the food was overpriced $4.00 for one ice cream sandwich

A lot of good footage. How I miss the PeopleMover! I'm surprised how in a couple shots there are 2 PeopleMover trains really close together. While I wasn't born until 1981 (holy crap! I'm 30!), I think the 1967 Tomorrowland is still the best version.

Wow - it's SO weird seeing cars at the front of DL. I have only ever been since they built DCA and it just seems strange that you could drive right up.  If you were there first thing in the morning you could almost have your car at the front gates!!! TOO weird!!!

There is a Facebook page called BRING THE PEOPLEMOVER BACK TO DISNEY LAND. Please type it into the search engine at the top of Facebook and join it! There is also a petition on it! :)

P.S. We apologize that we spelled Disneyland as "Disney Land." Facebook doesn't allow users to create pages with copyrighted names in them, so we had to work around it ;). Thanks!

Thanks for the tip. They're only a few miles from me in the Pittsburgh area.

this video makes me wish i could step into my computer screen and be there again. i'm guessing that's you,disneytim, walking with mom and big sis. that's about what i looked like in 1967. such a great time to be a kid at disneyland. so many fun attractions that are now gone. the '67 tomorrowland was the best ever. loved eating tuna sandwiches at the pirate ship. carousel of progress, adventure thru inner space,the old '67 autopia cars. it just isn't the same anymore. i want a RETROdisneyland!!!
