Bess, I heard the story this morning as well. I wonder if the woman will get into trouble? I have to tell my g/f about this story....she is a Disneyland fanatic as well and as well loves the POTC ride. I bet lot's of people have placed tidbits all around the park at some time or another. I wonder what law prohits them from having a bit of ashes? Seems that ashes are spread in rural areas, hills, mountains, fields, streams, oceans.
