Disneyland in Central America?
|
I am pretty good at making up jokes
and most recently, Disneyland Panama been the subject of many of
them. But the more I hear about the prospect of a Disneyland in
Panama, the more feasible the idea becomes. If you're not
in-the-know in Panama like I am—having just recently purchased a
gold, and rather expensive membership to the "in-the-know
club"—rumor has it, that a Disneyland is in the works near Santa
Clara, a small beachy town about an hour and a half from the
city.
I've heard the rumor from a lot of different people and I've
also had the rumor dismissed by a lot of people. I've heard
people who swear they know someone on the inside--some sort of
Disneyland informant who in my mind, looks like a Hispanic
Keebler gnome. This informant claims to have seen the papers
being signed, in an indescript office somewhere—perhaps
Disneyland headquarters in wonderland?
Just yesterday, I met a kid who said that he's excited because
the potential project would sit right in his backyard. He told
me that they're building a Sea World--and he seemed like he knew
what he was talking about--had really nice Oakleys and a cool
pen.
I’ve also heard from skeptics—people who dismiss the idea of
Disneyland Central America for a variety of reasons—primarily, I
believe, because they dislike grownup people in
costumes—something I very much enjoy. Some of them say the idea
would never work and others have said it’s just a publicity
stunt. I don’t really know. But, I smirk at the idea of being
able to go on that little children of the world ride where
they're all singing--what's that called?
I’m thinking about doing an investigation. I’ll need to buy some
latex gloves and a good magnifying glass, but otherwise, it
should be pretty easy. I’ll probably start by asking a guy I
know who used to dress up as Winnie the Pooh in Myrtle Beach.
Then, perhaps my 4 year old cousin who is practically an
executive at Disney, he’s seen so many of their movies. I’m
bound to come up with some hard facts—and hey, if I don’t—I can
just make them up. En serio, does anyone have any ideas about
the authenticity of this rumor? Disneyland and Sea World while
traveling Panama?
