Our last day at Disneyland turned out to be a bit wet.  That is OK, it keeps the crowds down! This is the plaque above the tunnel that leads you under the Railroad into the Main Street. A water fountain for all ages! A fire engine and a duck. Some of the many flowers! The […]

Day 132 (11 Apr 10 part 7): Tom Morrow

Thursday, May 6, 2010

Innoventions is a vision of how we will live in homes of the future, not to be confused with The House of Tomorrow. A closer look at Tom Morrow, in Tomorrowland.  Their joke, not mine… Toots liked the living room, although I don’t think she knew what that great looking rocket was… http://www.yesterland.com/moonrocket.html http://davelandweb.com/moonliner/ http://home.disney.go.com/foryou/disneyfans/insider/spotlight/?date=20100223 […]
