In 1959, we went to a theater to see a movie. It was 25 cents for kids, 50 cents per adult. My dad almost had apoplexy over that price!

In August, 1959, we went to Disneyland. My dad complained that the trip, including parking, admission, rides and food had cost our family of five a king's ransom of $30.00.

When I was 16 I lived in Orange County California close to Disneyland. We used to go every weekend! Admission was $2.50 if you didn’t buy a ticket booklet. You could buy individual ride tickets at kiosks inside the park (”E” tickets were 85 cents!). Today it costs $95 dollars to get in!
