Today as I was in line for Buzz, there was a couple (aged about 60) five people ahead of me. Both had walkers and used the handicapped door to board the ride. Even though they were well ahead of me, I could smell them distinctly from where I was (they also passed me as the ride exit -- I'm sure it was them). Never in my life have I encountered a person that smelled that bad. Honestly, I thought I was going to throw up. Truly -- they were disgusting. I have two thoughts and a question.
Thought 1: Perhaps if they're both handicapped/physically challenged, they have trouble maintaining good personal hygiene. I've never had to deal with this issue myself. I've always been healthy as have the members of my immediate family. Certainly I don't have any experience or understanding of the hardships/difficulties this can impose on a person.
Thought 2: If a person is able enough to get themselves together to get to Disneyland, it seems that showering/applying deodorant would be less of a challenge. Certainly it should be done if for no other reason than out of consideration for other guests.
Question: does Disneyland have a policy on guest personal hygiene? That is, can they/will they bar a guest from the park or, indeed, kick them out for smelling horrible? They must have been smelled/noticed by at least 1,000 other guests. There's no way I was the only one that was bothered by it. It doesn't seem fair to subject other guests to that. What are other people's thoughts?
