My X - took and my now grown kids want another for their "precious memories" of a wonderful experience. Thanks.

It is really great the way Disney has used his art to revitalize some of the old attractions. And Miehana, thanks for clarifying my photo error; I rectified it today with a new comparison.Davelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10720475138513029144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-61431545080118780372007-04-09T09:39:00.000-07:002007-04-09T09:39:00.000-07:00Fabulous stuff, as always!

I prefer the more "native" colors of the past to the candy we have today. By the way, your first photo is the signage at the Room's exit. Note the arrow directing around to the entrance at the 'gateway to Adventureland' - for those 'haoles' who might inadvertently enter through the back door without plunking down 75 cents.<BR/><BR/>-MiehanaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-49308767964155030632007-04-06T13:04:00.000-07:002007-04-06T13:04:00.000-07:00I was there once and a little kid fell into the fo...I was there once and a little kid fell into the fountain and got soaked while waiting for the next show.

The Tiki room refurbishment was also launched with a SHAG event that included serigraphs, prints, handbags and all sorts of tchotchkies. SHAG was also one of the artists who was a part of the rekindling of all things Tiki, retro and swanky back in the late 90's and early 00's.Hrundi V.
