The Beam

We are starting to get a little bit of a Disneyland routine going lately. This includes going in or out of the park on the Monorail. The captain's view of the park, otherwise known as the first cart on the Monorail provides the best view thus far.

When we sat in the captain's cabin we were able to hear fun facts about the park such as Disneyland being built around the Monorail. The Monorail is built on a beam and as I learned that fact I started to wonder if Walt Disney was somehow interested in the sport of gymnastics to get such an inspiration.

The good thing about going in the park from the Monorail is that you get to avoid standing in the entrance lines. If you plan on going to California Adventure it is not a good idea to take the Monorail because there is only an exit/entrance for Disneyland or Downtown Disney.

Why is this important, I'm not sure. Maybe I'm not being true to myself when I'm writing about Disneyland.

What I really feel like writing about is the fact that I have a children's book in the process of being published right now and I'm excited about it. It's called, Moon of Mine and it's about a kid having short conversations with the moon. The whole idea being the moon is like a mother to the kid. Our mothers are like a night light, guiding our hearts near or far. The moon is as consistent as the sun as the heart of a mother is for her child.

I suppose M.o.M. fits in with the topic of Disneyland because Disneyland's Main Street is like Main Street U.S.A. which is where I imagine Moon of Mine to take flight, so to speak. I'll try to give you a captain's view of the book (so to speak) to give you an idea of what it's like. I really hope you like it. My heart is now beaming. Good night.
