This afternoon I was entering a few “prices realized” on eBay into the checklist database. In the process I found that someone had bought a copy of NT0374 for $5. Now…I have to admit that I love the canal boats. It’s easily one of my favorite rides at Disneyland. Having made a few dioramas myself in the past couple of years, the detail and scale of the landscapes is just
perfect..and if you get the right canal boat operator, then it’s just a bonus.
Since I did not have a picture of the canal boat card entered int the data base yet, I scanned one in and in the process noticed something rather interesting. As an aside, I have to say that this is true for a lot of the cards. Scanning them and seeing them blown up on the screen…you see stuff that you just don’t see when they are regular size right in front of your face.
Anyway…four of the people in the boat that is in the fore-ground are wearing what look to be navy blue hats. The hats appear to have a Disneyland logo on the brim, and they appear to offer excellent protection from the hot SoCal sun. The kid in the back of the boat has one as well…it’s just not on his head.
So…does any one know what these hats are? Anyone have a photo they can share? I would love to see what one of these hats looks like in detail. Part of me thinks they might be made of paper…but hard to be sure.
Checklist Update:
I am adding more pictures to the database now…working my way through the P-cards. I have also started entering E card data into the database as well. It’s going to be pretty awesome when it’s all in there!
In addition to that, I have a list of things that I am going to be changing on the checklist tool. It will probably be a month or so before its all implemented…but I wanted to let you know that improvements are coming! If you have used the tool and have any specific things you find annoying, please let me know.
Until next time…
