River Country
Aw man. Disney World's River Country closed and was abandoned? That's kind of a bummer. it was one of the best attractions in the park. (Or at least one I liked the most as a child) http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2344523
It's also interesting how sharp my visual memory of this place is and how those things all looked 20 years ago. All of those pictures I see the picture and I know where they were taken from and what they were looking at even with the decay. *sigh* Sometime the memory damage I have from the car wreck is so very frustrating. My memory used to be so sharp. Most of the world from before the accident remains razor sharp in my memory. I recall visual elements in great detail. Since the accident, I wander in a world which is almost always new to me. I can visit a place a dozen times and it feels unfamiliar each time and I see things I don't recall seeing before though people around me assure me they've been there for years. (Big things like buildings, not small things)
I often wonder if my drawing would be better if my visual memory weren't so poor. I feel like most of my drawing skill is encoded as muscle memory.
But ohwell. Life sucks and then you die.

It is so sad to see old faves allowed to go, but even sadder to see them just abandoned like that.
I raised a glass recently on the last night of "The Adventurer's Club" - I haven't been back there since it closed, but I miss it, just knowing it is not there anymore saddens me.

Probably also the amount of suntan lotion and human waste in the water wasn't doing the surrounding swap a lot of good.
Or maybe the water park wasn't competitive with other attractions in the area.
No idea really.
