What do you mean " 'live' mermaids in the submarine lagoon " don't you mean " live 'mermaids' in the submarine lagoon " ;)

Thanks for this!

Hi there ! Hey, you have some very rare footage of the "Mine Train Thru Nature's Wonderland." Way to go !

[zac613]

@Drobaina yes. the grand canyon thingy was a ride called Natures Wonderland. where the living desert or as u put it "grand canyon thingy" sunk in and the back area/ big thunder ranch sits on top of it. i have a pic slide show on my channel of Natures Wonderland if u would like to check it out.

@TheGfierce kinda. part of the "bear country" pond is there and sometimes the fish "jump". it is rumored that Natures Wonderland was Walts favorite ride. it's a shame the park tore it out for a cheap thrill that u can find at all the other disney parks. ugh

[TheGfierce]

is the nature part with the bears in the water still there?

I loved the submarine ride i cant believe they took it away. I was 6 the last time i saw it and i dont really remember but did they always have girls in the water like that?

Wow! There are some familiar parts in this place, since I last visited on the week before 2007's New Year, and will probably visit again next summer. The part with the parade at the beginning looks EXACTLY like it does today!

The Indian Village was replaced by the Country Bear Jamboree in 1971.
