NOW it’s officially the start of the holiday season.
I mean, it’s not Christmas till the Norwegians start building their train display in Union Station. That’s just facts.
Incidentally! In the Norway pavilion at Epcot, there’s a ride called the “Maelstrom.” It’s a flume boat ride with a couple small drops, and just as you’re being turned around by the evil troll to go over the second hill (of course there are evil trolls; don’t you know anything?) you can hear the first movement of Grieg’s Peer Gynt. You know, the really serene opening bit. Ironically enough. Nobody does details like Disney!
