SFD 362: Sent to Cal Expo

This week we explore two postcards spanning the Disneyland Resort's history—from a 2001 visit to the newly opened Disney California Adventure featuring Grizzly Peak, to a 1968 ride aboard the Becky Thatcher raft to Tom Sawyer Island. The history segment looks at the story behind the iconic Disney California Adventure "CALIFORNIA" letters, from their debut at the park entrance to their move to Cal Expo in Sacramento, where they continue to welcome visitors to the California State Fair. Plus, an incoming Postcrossing postcard from South Korea, thoughts on solo Disney park trips, and more Disney postal history. Thanks to Enfield Post and Art Throw Down for supporting this episode.
