Much of the disappointment I have had with Disneyland, Anaheim is the lack of understanding of the power of nostalgia. For example, rather than selling the Disneyland sign on eBay, why not install it at the tram boarding area near the parking structure? This would be quite the photo opportunity while waiting for the next tram.How much would recreating such a sign cost? Yet, how many a baby-boomer heart would glow a little brighter at the sight and memory to share with their children?
Also, nostalgia can easily be satisfied with a carefully crafted DVD. For example, I have reconstructed almost the entire ride of Nature's Wonderland to show my kids. I then show them the old tunnels and props still in the Thunder Mountain area. Such visuals and historic memories can be documented in one DVD title to relive the magic.
