What Disneyland Means To Southern California

It may be closed on its 65th anniversary, but that’s the only appropriate choice. “For me and many Southern California residents, Disneyland is more than a theme park; it is where I go to write, to read, to reset. It represents something between a living pop-art museum and an emotional retreat. Mostly it’s an invitation to play, and when I play I’m calm. Yet I would not be calm if I were inside Disneyland right now.” – Los Angeles Times
