Dreamland

Where can you find all of the following:

• the Golden Gate Bridge;
• Universal Studios;
• Santa Monica pier;
• breaking waves;
• the Santa Fe Depot train station;
• the scent of pine trees, orange blossoms and ocean surf;
• an aircraft carrier in San Diego Bay;
• white-water rafting;
• farmland, and farmers markets;
• insects.

No, that wasn’t a test.

Once again, where can you find the following:

• the Golden Gate Bridge, without the traffic;
• Universal Studios, without the actors;
• Santa Monica pier, sans bubble-man;
• breaking waves, without the smell;
• the Santa Fe Depot, without the trains;
• the scent of pine trees, orange blossoms and ocean surf, without insects and sand;
• an aircraft carrier aground;
• white-water rafting without the hazards;
• farmland with no minimum-wage illegal workers slaving under the hot sun.

Imagine a perfect world. Imagine never having to leave the city. Imagine no long, summer vacation traffic-jams with a car full of kids. Imagine all that, and you have dreamland, Disney’s CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE, a dreamland so magnificent that you never have to leave the city to experience it.
