Tomorrow is a place in the future where we see the potential and vast amounts of happiness available to us. It is no wonder that when Disney created "The Happiest Place On Earth" he made Tomorrowland. It is the one part of the park that is constantly changing and adjusting to make way for its many tomorrows. A place of beauty and happiness it enchants the hopefuls.
Gazing across the many nooks and crannies of this land, you are taken away by all the motion and movement that is present without any haste. From intergalactic space stations to space age souvenir shops, life becomes all that much more intense and awe inspiring. Bored of this planet? Star Tours await those who wish to find adventure and cruises through space. You can shrink to the size of an ant or you can go ride in the cars of tomorrow on a winding road of the Autotopia transport.
The sounds are way beyond anything you have ever heard in these life times. Zooming space ships, friendly robot voices, metal, and the movement of a new future brings us to the realization that the future is one full of knowledge and kindness. The belief that no matter how much the world changes, we will all be good to each other and harmony will reign. All the sounds bring together the symphony of unity.
In the world of tomorrow there are not only things to look at but experience and explore as well. Run your hands along the smooth symmetry of the local water park or jump inside the technology of the world's fair and experience the newest and latest technology. From international video games to innovations to make life in the future easier, there is so much to experience.
As you raise your nose in the air you do smell the freshwater drifting from the lagoon, but over that you get that familiar smell of cheese and bread melting together and suddenly you realize that certain things stay the same.....pizza. Huge slices of intergalactic deliciousness delight your tongue. There are so many other things in the restaurants of this land, salads, burgers, fries, drinks, cookies, and the cake.....intergalactic blue planet savarin ring cake. A decadent and light taste of glazed bread cake that brings it all together, the tradition of the past with the promise of the future.
Tomorrowland is where inspiration and hope are present. It is a place where there is inspiration for all those things which will make our future bigger and hope for all those things which will make our future a little brighter. A land of promise.
