Carsland is awesome!

I finally got a chance to test drive Carsland at DCA. What a treat! The new addition blows away (imho) the rest of the park. So much attention to detail, love and artistic details make Carsland a complete success. The rest of Eisner's park looks boring and lackluster. We went early in the day and loved the look of it, but decided we needed to return at sunset for it was clear that neon would rule the evening. Carsland adds 3 new fun rides to DCA; Luigi's Flying Tires, Radiator Springs Racers and The Tow Mater ride. The Tow Mater ride looks like a silly Knott's type kiddie ride. We dismissed it in the morning, but then we tried it in the evening, and we laughed our heads off on it. It is deceptive in its appearance, you must try it!
A few of my photos from my Carsland trip are available on canvas for purchase at;

My tour of Lucasfilm Animation plus Skywalker Ranch

I was able to take another tour of Skywalker Ranch-( 3rd photo down from top) & Lucasfilm Animation home of The Clone Wars animation recently. This fountain-(top photo) is 1 of 2 that bracket the lovely Yoda bronze-(2nd photo) by sculptor Lawrence Noble. The sculpture & fountains are at the entrance to Lucasfilm Animation. I had the honor of meeting Larry Noble at an art opening that same weekend, what a treat! It was a Star Wars filled weekend for me, got to have dinner with John Rinzler-editor of many Lucasfilm books on one night, dinner with concept artist Mark Gabbana on another, hang out with Pat Presley-concept artist for The Clone Wars and  Pak Han-photographer and Star Wars art collector. What fun.
