I am not sure how many of you remember the 50th Anniversary/Birthday celebration at Disneyland 10 years ago, but I remember it as being one of the most magical times at the Disneyland resort! The castle was decorated in a similar fashion as to how it is being decorated now, except the embellishments were all golden, not jewels!
A lot of blogs and websites I follow have been comparing the new Diamond studded Sleeping Beauty's Castle to the Gold adorned one. But does anyone remember the rest of the golden embellishments that year? More specifically, I'm talking about all the golden ride vehicles that popped up everywhere! There was a golden Teacup and a golden ship on Peter Pan's Flight and a Golden Jungle Cruise boat! There was gold everywhere! For more information and pictures, I found this old post about the events back in 2005 at Started by a Mouse! Pretty cool, huh?

So what does Disneyland have in store for us now that the 60th Birthday Celebration is about to begin? Last night I found myself watching live broadcasts from Disneyland on Twitter's new app called Periscope and I noticed that one of the Teacups in the Mad Tea Party was covered by a light blue tarp. Now, I know the teacups probably break down and are covered periodically, maybe even due to biohazard, but you never know!
Just take a look at this old photo from Mouse Planet to see how a Teacup was covered in a similar fashion before the big 50th reveal! I would be willing to bet that Disney still has a few sparkly, diamond studded surprises headed our way and those may pop up as ride vehicles! I guess we'll have to wait and see on May 22nd! What do you think we'll see?
