I am SURE I had to have ridden over the DtD/DCA portion of the monorail at some point in '01 or '03, I guess it was just so long ago I don't remmeber at all.

SO, when we stay at the Grand Californian this summer the closest spot to get the monorail is the DtD station where I was getting it last summer? I guess the most sensible thing is to get it from Tomorrowland whenever we are in the DL park & want to go walk around DtD or go to the DL Hotel for dinner, etc.

I can't wait, I am SO excited to go back to DL!!! I Disneyland!
Yup, you will still hop on the monorail at the DTD station. That is the only place to board from outsude of the park.

There's a chance the monorail could go back to its full circuit after the Nemo attraction opens, I guess it just depends whether or not the crowds still call for extra transportation! Disney is kind of basing their decision on efficiency right now, I think. I like the extra route, getting to go between the buildings of the Grand Californian and over DCA...but...

...so far I think the TL-DTD route is working out great; it sure is a nice quick way to hop out of the park for lunch or something!

I am excited for you, getting to go back to Disneyland!! I can't believe the subs are going to be opening so soon!!
