Thanks for the monorail ride! I haven't been to DisneySea, and yet I can identify the parts of it so easily. Hmmmmmm, maybe that should be in "You know you're a TDL nut when...".... :mickey:

We should probably just change it to "You know you're a Disney nut when..." I think we would all still qualify!

That's true, and yet he keeps popping on this site all the time. If he gets a B+ on his exam, I know it was because he was too distracted with posting on this website... :wink:

Yeah, I've thought about admonishing him, but I can remember how it was nice to take a break from studying now and then...

Now that I have given you a tour of the resort from the monorail, here are the buses...(Len, enjoy! And use whatever strings you have to get some of these little beauties for WDW! :lol: )

Bus stops looked similar to those here in the states, but the buses themselves were so much more stylish!

Well, this particular set of bus stops outside Ikispara were pretty fancy...

Aren't these seats awesome?!! I would love to have these installed in my personal vehicle!

The Disney cruisers...

Those buses look great - and in immaculate condition! Maybe the Japanese are kinder tourists, as those buses would be abused by the tourists at WDW.

Yeah, I don't know how old the buses were, but I thought the same thing, they would never survive in the states :(

Unforunate, as those buses are beauts. I had seen the interior before on YouTube video and was jealous.

The design of those buses is great - something like motor coaches from the 1940s/50s - pity that you can't buy one...

In a way, you can. I know they put out a toy version. I have seen it once or twice pop up on Ebay.

Not the same in a fun size though :(

Yeah, I noticed, but that's not really satisfactory - since the interior (which is, I dare say judging from Amy's photos, the most attractive part of the whole bus) isn't depicted in those toy versions :P
