^ Easier to produce onstage than Luca, I'd betcha, lol. (See: "The Little Mermaid" on Broadway. Mermaids on wheelie shoes!)

Well, it was on Wednesday apparently. But for now .... Happy National PIZZA DAY! And a U.S. map was posted online, showing what states liked which kinds/types of pizzas, the best. Thank for the map, "Slice." The way I see it, there is tooo much 'veggie' in the Western U.S. And as for 'Hawaiian' preferred in a few states .....

Since the current Oscar nominations, out of the ten movies nominated for "Best", we saw five of them. Which is a pretty good for us, heh. The Oscars show is on Sunday, March 27th.

2021 TPR Coaster Poll Results!
Nrthwnd replied to A.J.'s topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am glad that Coaster @Playland(PNE) got a spot in the top 25 wooden coasters. It definitely deserves to be there, among the other 24. It does not disappoint. But I didn't ride anything other than what was at my home park, last year. Not enough to fill out a poll, IMhO. <sad> -

^ From what I have read and seen of it all, it would be certainly be a better choice of 'transport' for this kind of attraction. Trackless vehicles still need elevators (and such things) to move them up to a higher or lower level. Funny thing is, the old Alice In Wonderland ride in DL, is really a multi level dark ride, still tracked, but manages to go up and down, level-wise. On an angle. Down we go, heading to that Tea Party Finale. Taken Sept.09, 2019. -

ZOOTOPIA construction update. Here's a shot of what can be seen, between The Pooh Ride, and The 7 Dwarfs Mine Train. This will be the entryway (and exit from) into Zootopia, I believe. Photo from the net. Thank you to whoever took this shot. And an overhead shot. And thanks again to "whoever" for taking this shot. It's great! And I still think that the huge building there (orange crane in front of it), is going to house a Test Track-type attraction. IMhO. Same as "Journey..." over in DisneySea. And Radiator Springs Racers in DCA. The system especially works, for speeding up and slowing down (i.e. Zootopia police car chase?). Basically, it's a Disney "Adult Size" slot car racing set, LOL. -
Listening to Aretha Franklin's awesome 1972 album, "Young Gifted & Black" on the radio now. With retrospective, stories and stuff about the making of the album. And "Border Song" (by Elton John) is coming up soon.

Just watched the "Let It Go" number from FROZEN. Followed by "Show Yourself" from FROZEN 2. It was an epic listen.

......And as far as "that Sea Salt ice cream" goes (see above, somewhere) .... It was available on my first TPR visit there, in 2007. The ice cream was in a container, and the container was in this "clam shell" you kept as a souvenir. Very cool taste and idea, it was. TDR Souvenirs, 2007. On the right, there. Lid's in front of the clam shell holder I got, along with the ice cream. -
Recent construction photo of 'Arendelle: Home of Frozen'... Photo from the net, Thanks! It's really looking good, there. Almost a whole new mini-Land unto itself, lol. And...... I am still curious, about that GREEN RECTANGULAR THING in back, there? And how they are hiding it, etc? Does it maybe have to do, with some kind of "water filtration system" as the attraction is a flume ride, yes?
