Thank you! Gonna check it out next time we are in the park.
Where is this??I like the crypt in New Orleans square dated "1764."
Where is this??
As the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad ride comes to a close, the train car will loop back around to the boarding area. As it does, you pass a row of scaled down replicas of buildings from the old west. I love the details, from the lights that are on to curtains and other things in the window, and I love that they’re scaled down. There is an intense fascination over the level of detail paired with the scaled down size….as if you are to believe that the building is actually funcational for miniature people or something. It’s not just a cheap façade where you can easily look around the corner and see the careless underpinnings This, as we’ve seen over the history of the park(s) is what makes Disney stand out above the rest. Their prized attention to detail and an unmatched sense of aesthetics, all masterfully combined to transport anyone of any age to a different time and place.
The smell of the water and mist in Pirates of the Carribean
@disneycat321....
Regarding the smell of the water....just when one thinks, surely there could be no one else on earth who would be into something so strange!
Ok so for those water smell enthusiasts....would you say that it's different between the different water based rides (Small World, Splash Mountain, etc.)?

Space Mountain (before the late 90’s makeover?). After you exit the ride and are making your way through that corridors of the building there are historic Nasa photos of planets and stars with the names of the missions that took them. I’ve searched high and low online for photos of this part of the ride and have not been able to find them yet.
The green metal railings all along the landscaping in the area in front of the castle and tomorrowland. They are simple but they always look freshly painted in that beautiful green color.
The souvenir/newstand to the left, right after you pass the ticket gates, just before the railroad bridge, especialy a night when the lights are on. Even in this digital age I have a desire to buy a postcard book (you know, the postcards that are all joined by perforated folds and open out into a long strip of postcards).

I love the smell of the water on Pirates...
Hey, it's the same smell!I'm "liking" all of these water smell posts even though I'm thinking of the WDW water rides.
I love that you can actually get a candle that is supposed to smell like it...I love the smell of the water on Pirates...
