Cruising the Jungle, May 1966

My Ouija board told me to post some Adventureland images today, so howsabout some Jungle Cruise stuff?

I think I spy no less than 11 soggy elephants in this picture... Walt and his boys didn't "cheap out" by just giving us 2 or 3 pachyderms at the Elephant Bathing Pool! I like the guy who appears to be either clambering up the bank (to the left, see?) or napping.


Yes, that's where I would want to sit too...


I love rhinos, they're the closest thing we have to a triceratops.

  1. Hey that's a good point about Rhinos... those guys there with one surely take the point.

    No chintzing at the elephant pool, no sir. They really pachydermed them in!

    I tink they put the smiling elephant in that spot under the waterfall to keep us from wanting to hang out there and shock the guests.

  3. I never thought of it that way, but yes, there are polydimentional pachyderms in plenty at the sacred bathing pool. And just to show his generosity, Walt throws in a surfeit of simeons, and a glut of gnus.

  4. Good news Major, you can make that Rhino a Triceratops if you cross your eyes really hard! Go ahead, try it.

    That last shot was our family favorite, something about getting the point in the end.

    Does anyone have a script from the JC, that would have to be a riot to read.

    Thanks for the great pics. Never stop!

    That's the best photo of the elephant taking a shower that I have even seen! Most photos have him lost in shadow or in mixed sunlight and shadow.
