365 Adventures in 2011: Day 252 – Mr Toad returns… kinda

Oh how I wish this picture was of me standing in front of a newly-reconstruction Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride in the Magic Kingdom, ready to board once again. But alas, it is only a facade set up for this weekend’s “Florida Project” merchandise event at Epcot. Regardless, it was still wonderful to see a trio of Toad vehicles lined up, as if ready to enter the magical fireplace in Toad Hall. The facade looked great and brought back wonderful memories of decades past, before the ride shut down in the late ’90s. Yes there’s a version of it at Disneyland, which I happily ride every time I visit there, but it’s simply not the same as what was once where The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh now resides in the Magic Kingdom.
