1 Where would you find Flamingo Lagoon, Crane's Roost and Parrot's Perch?
The only place that these can be found is on the September 2008 plans for "Disney's Jungle Trek" on Discovery Island a.k.a. "Bay Lake's Tropical Island Paradise", a 11.5 acre island in Bay Lake.

Great! I've seen the Percherons and Belgians pulling the trolleys but I haven't see the Clydesdales. Cool! The Percherons are my favorites.

EPCoT bound for the next set of questions
1. Who used what to design the ride mechanism for Soarin'?
2. What were the two 3-D films to be shown before "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience"? Bonus if you can provide the run dates to nearest year
3. What inspired the design of the female Cast Members' costumes at Impressions de France?
4. What is the total horse power, generated by the motors, of a Test Track vehicle?
5. "Universe of Energy" has how many ride vehicles and what is the guest capacity of each?
Good luck

I believe it is Mark Sumner and his Erector Set. (Watching Disney Channel "Imaginear That!" pays off! )

Yep, that's the man. He brought his 40 year old set out from the attic. In the UK, we call it Meccano.
Now, where did I put my set?
