Pres. Lincoln's Farewell Address

The "Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln" attraction on Disneyland's Main Street is going away on Februrary 22 (the day after President's Day) to make room for a special exhibit celebrating Disneyland's 50th anniversary, and our favorite audio-animatronic won't be giving his rendition of the Gettysburg Address again until Autumn 2006. So, if you haven't seen Great Moments lately, be sure and catch it this month -- especially if you haven't seen it since 2001 when the 3D audio effects were added and the whole tie-in with Mathew Brady's glass plate photography was included in the story. This is a great attraction to catch on your way out of the park. They always run it one last time after the official park closing. So, put on your headphones, have a seat, enjoy the show, and wait for the exiting crowd to die down. Who knows? You and your kids may even learn a thing or three about US history in the process.
