Disneyland, The S.S. Daisy

Written: Dec 17 '06
Pros:No line
Cons:Pretty boring
The Bottom Line: A short stop after Goofy’s bounce house.

This is actually the S.S. miss Daisy, not Donald’s boat.

This is an attraction inside Toon Town, Disneyland, Anaheim California. It opened in 1993. It is a two-story building that is shaped like a boat. There is no line but it does have two entrances, one on the south side and one on the north side. This attraction is located between Goofy’s bounce house and Gadgets coaster. It is a ride much like U.S.S. Rustworthy in that you can play around with stuff and stay as long as you like.

There are two floors, the bottom has to openings, one going towards Goofy’s bounce house exit and the other heading towards the west part of Toon Town street. The bottom does not have anything really exciting other than a couple of colorful nautical decorations behind a net. There is also a communication hole to the second floor but I don’t think it works properly.

There is a spiral stairway behind this net, which leads me to believe it used to function as an alternative way to get to the top level. Now it is roped off so no one can go up/down that way. Just by looking at it, it does not appear to be a safety hazard so I have no idea why they roped it off.

In order to get to the top you have to go 5 yards south of the boat and walk up some stairs. On top you have a steering wheel and some noisemaker thingies at the captains control panel. This will entertain an adult for about 3 milliseconds and entertain your kiddos for only a couple of minutes. Not too exciting.

You can walk around the top floor and view the western part of Toon Town to your hearts content.

Fast pass?
There is no fast pass, and since there is no line there is no need for one.

Hidden Mickey’s
None known.

Summary
This has got to be the most boring attraction in Toon Town, but it does give my children about 5 minutes of entertainment after they bounced around in Goofy’s house. The only benefit I see is giving the adult in the party a few minutes of rest while the children go up and down an otherwise boring attraction.
