Parks Game...Part 12! I Can't Believe We're Still Playing!

Indeed, it is absolutely the Moroccan Pavilion. An appropriately fez-tooned AAQ is ready & waiting for you.

Sticking around in the World Showcase:

In Italy the painting technique on the walls is called Trompe L'oeil, a very famous and old technique.

What does Trompe L'oeil stand for?

 

[cabanafrau]

I think it references trick of the eye.

Ha ha Amy I knew this one too! But this time I was beaten to the punch. Trick the Eye! (Or Deceive the Eye.) In any case you and I surely are on the same page....

Ce Bella! A Fettucinni Wrapped AAQ to you!

Yum...fettucinni. I think I know what I'm doing for dinner tonight!

 

[outlander]

Who's up?

 

[amyhughes]

Cabanafrau got it first.

 

[cabanafrau]

Oh, thank goodness I'm not doing an Atkin's diet about now -- who can pass up fettucine?

Let's say a fetching lass was in search of a big strapping "lad" who answers to Gino, head of his "shining" clan. Where in the world should her quest take her?

Tony's Town Square featuring Lady and the Tramp

 

[cabanafrau]

Sorry, not Tony's. Main Street might be a bit too civilized for Gino & his tribe.

 

[N10CJT]

The Pangani Trail. Gino is a silverback gorilla. He used to be in a zoo in Chicago, he is one of the animals my girlfriend and I are most excited about seeing during our trip!

 

[cabanafrau]

Absolutely, Gino is indeed quite the strapping young lad found on the Pangani Exploration Trail, leading up his tribe of silverback gorillas. Be sure to tell him hello from us.

Your AAQ card comes to you today courtesy of promotional consideration from the Lincoln Park Zoo.

I'm sure he'll remember you. I hear he's Animal Kingdom's equivalent of Art the Greeter.....

Here's one from the history books.....

On the day that Walt Disney decided to build a theme park in Florida, what major historical event also occured?

 

[jdpopp]

The day he made his plans public: November 15, 1965
Craig Breedlove sets land speed record (600.601 mph-966.57 kph)

Day he fist flew over the Orlando site: November 22, 1963
JFK was assassinated

Nope that's not it! Sorry!

 

[jdpopp]

I relaized what you ment a bit later so I edited my post

 

[N10CJT]

On the second chance, you got it.

Incidentally, though, wasn't the announcement on the 16th? I thought that was the day because my sister mentioned it when I defended my dissertaion on that day 40 years later. I'll have to check that out!

In any case, you've earned an AAQ....

 

[jdpopp]

OK easy question,

What 2 cities were established on the property that Disney bought so that, Disney could have total control over the design and construction of Disney World?
