............ DID YOU EVER SEE EGGPLANT THIS BIG BEFORE ???

This was another cool place we saw - I forgot which Theme Park it was, maybe Epcot, but they gave us a ride thru a HUGE greenhouse "of the future" where right now as you see they are growing plants and vegetables in a really innovative way. Huge eggplants and pumpkins grow up in the air, but they do have to support the pumpkins, being so heavy. Whatever new system they are using here, it sure seems to be working!!

These Wilderness Beasts are made entirely out of NAILS! I just had to get this picture from Downtown Disney. This was the last day of our trip (November 11, 2006) and it was also the HOTTEST, temperature-wise ---but still a whole lot cooler than last year when we came in September-October. I just can't understand how people survive in those crowded Theme Parks in the sweltering humid days of SUMMER!
