It's not often that Disneyland destroys something for the second time, but that's what's currently happening at the Disneyland Hotel's (former) Never Land Pool. As I was watching the pool's destruction yesterday (in a scene that brought to mind construction workers hacking away at Swiss Family Treehouse branches), I was reminded of my recent Follow That Tree post.
Here is the former Pirate Ship as it was being pried and chopped apart:
There were other workers around the edge of the pool. But what caught my eye and what made me do this post are the boxed trees in the distance:
I wish I knew something about the trees to, you know, make this post interesting, but perhaps in another twenty years these trees will still be around on the property and these photos will provide a little information to such future arboreal archivists.
Pried and chopped apart? It almost looks like they set fire to it! Gee, and the Neverland Pool area was only about 10 years old.
ReplyDeleteI always liked the little pirate ship and the crocodile, such a shame to see it ripped to pieces. I hope they are replacing it with something as fun...
ReplyDeleteDo the "pirate ship destruction photos" ever end on this blog? For a second I thought it was THE Pirate ship, nice to know Disney is an equal opportunity destroyer! TM is right, looks like they set it ablaze!
ReplyDeleteInteresting post - thanks!
Interesting enough! I wonder what they are planning to do with this. Looks like the trees are the one who will stood against of time, I guess Disney fans will never grew tired of this green accents that keeps the people from melting down after a long waiting line.
ReplyDeleteI am curious with the title you used on this article so I made a little search about the term Déjà vu. I found that Déjà vu is the experience of feeling sure that one has already witnessed or experienced a current situation, even though the exact circumstances of the previous encounter are uncertain and were perhaps imagined. So, does this means you're uncertain of this scenarios?
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Too bad that the pirate ship was already destroyed. I really hope they will make another one.
