We had a Disney magic moment in December when I got to ride the monorail with Bob Gurr, yes, I rode his ride with him....I was in awe and everyone else in the car had no idea. He was going to a program at the DLH and boarded at the Tomorrowland station. We walked up and the conductor said I have room for 3 more. I took two steps and saw Mr. Gurr outside of the monorail talking to the pilot. I shook his hand and took a quick photo. The conductor asked us to find seats so we jumped in behind Mr. Gurr and sat next to him! It was an amazing "struck by Disney lightening" moment. The monorail stopped short at the DLH and Mr. Gurr stood up and the conductor outside began to motion and yell for him to sit down. He did and the monorail moved about 3 feet. Mr. Gurr leaned in and said "I would not have stopped short"...The doors opened and the conductor laughed as he recognized Mr. Gurr and Mr. Gurr recognized him. It was an unforgettable experience for my 6 year old son, my sister and I. I only wish my wife an mother in law were there as they were riding It's A Small World at the time. This is our DS next to the Disney Legend.
