Tax Day, Uncle Scrooge and a Disneyland Birthday

I thought in honor of Tax Day, I'd do a post about Scrooge McDuck (a "loosely" related post theme, I know!) This first picture was taken in Tokyo Disneyland's Toontown. Note the dollar signs on Scrooge's buttons!


Now we'll jump over to Tokyo Disneyland's sister park, Tokyo DisneySea. Here, Scrooge has his very own Department Store in the American Waterfront section of the park.


This fountain is located just outside of McDuck's Department Store.


Here's a close-up. The plaque on the fountain reads, "Naturally Pure Hudson River Water."


The interior of the store is decorated with Scrooge's likeness.








Today also happens to be Tokyo Disneyland's 27th birthday. I was in Tokyo last year for the 26th birthday and the opening of their Monsters Inc. attraction, and the year before that for their year-long 25th birthday celebration. I was supposed to be there this week for the 27th, but my plans fell through. :-(

Happy Birthday, Tokyo Disneyland!!!
