In the summer of 1969, a "Big 10 Ticket Book" that included admission was $4.75. The FastPass hadn't been invented and you didn't need a phone app to plan your day. Pirates of the Caribbean was relatively new and The Haunted Mansion was still a coming attraction (It opened on August 9th, the beginning of the "Fall Season"). Oddly enough, one of our most vivid memories is of getting a bag of chips at the Casa De Fritos. They were dispensed via a chute coming out of a fake mountain with a vaguely Bob's Big Boy-looking "Frito Kid" presiding over the vending experience.

I was in Disneyland in '67, I think it was. Remember a number of those rides.
And I certainly remember the harsh reality of having a number of A and B tickets, and really, really, really needing to go on a D or E ride. (Actually, I've always favored Knotts Berry Farm to the Magic Kingdom.)
