The Chicken of the Sea, that is. This July 1968 shot taken from a Skyway bucket shows so much! Look at all the guests exploring the deck, including the little varmint on the right who appears to be a tad too close to the edge of the ship. I wonder how many kids tried to climb up the ropes?
Here you can see all the Skyway buckets circulating through the nearby Fantasyland Skyway station, and a cast member walking through the hills of Storybook Land:
This May 1968 image shows the Chicken of the Sea Mermaid:
What a beauty; note the blond tresses cascading behind her:
Also from 1968 is this shot of the ship, with cannons ready to fire!
Beautiful. There's another attraction I visited once, and always assumed would still be there when I came back the next time.
ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures, and a beautiful shot of the mermaid!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics, Dave. A favorite spot.
ReplyDeleteI always thought that the mermaid and tinkerbelle were related somehow. Cousins maybe.
I can only spot one trash can, one of the nice striped ones.

Wow, I love that view of the mermaid. So sad that she's gone, even though she was a corporate mascot.
