"....it's a BEAUTIFUL day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day in the neighborhood, would you be mine, could you be mine, won't you be my neighbor...??"

We stood and watched the trains forever and I never thought to take a picture. I'm going to this next trip so I can participate in this thread.

Look at the little gas pumps! I wonder what the price per gallon is.

Well being that it IS in Disney World (and very tiny) -- I'd guess about $2.00 per ounce.

dredick - I love this hidden Mickey pic. It's still amazing that people can find these things. I look and look and look, and nuthin'. Oh well.

Carol - I've seen this mail box in other pics. Where it it? I'll have to put it on my list of things to look for next trip.

I've been away for a while working on my kid's scrapbooks. I'm taking a bit of a break and thought I'd play again. Here's one from the Junior Chef's program at Epcot - I think I gotta go upstairs and make some cookies!

The description I wrote on my Flickr:

This is one of three Walt Disney Company airplanes that were in use when Walt was still alive from February 1963 up until Walt's death in December of 1966. This is a Gulfstream (Grumman) bought in 1963, in service until 5/64 and retired to WDW 10/8/92.

This is seen on the Backlot Tour at Disney's Hollywood Studios of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Here is an excerpt from a Jim Hill Media article titled "Flying High With Walt":

The FAA gave the plane special call letters: N234MM--the N denotes a plane, and the MM is short of Mickey Mouse. All three planes had the same designation.

Walt had his own seat on the Gulfstream, with an altimeter and air speed indicator on the wall next to the seat, and a telephone direct to the pilot. Walt used the planes for checking out the available acreage in Florida for a theme park. After construction began, it ferried Disney executives back and forth, and was later used for promotional tours for new Disney movies and for theme park promotions. It was nicknamed "The Mouse." Walt contributed to the plane's interior design, and his wife, Lillian assisted in selecting materials and colors.

In a 1978 WED-Way publication is the following information about the Gulfstream (Grumman) now at Walt Disney World: "By 1978, after 14 1/2 years, the plane had logged 4,305,000 miles. That's 12,300 hours in the air, on 5,960 flights. The longest flight was from Burbank to Portland, ME, at 2,700 miles. The plane's maximum time in the air was 8 hours, 33 min."
