Thanks for posting that, dldhistory. I also like the old ad on your site for the Tahitian Terrace restaurant: As far as the Japanese Village goes, my parents took us kids there several times a year. It was one of our favorite theme parks and fairly inexpensive. In the deer-feeding enclosure, you could buy a small box of pellets to feed the deer. Inside the box there was a small plastic deer which you could take home. In the Dove enclosure there was a small plastic dove in the dove feed, and a small plastic koi in the koi feed. I still have those plastic animals somewhere. I also remember enjoying the sea-lion shows and watching the pearl divers at work in their cove. I remember a Dancing Waters show as well, similar to the one at Sea World and almost every other amusement park in the 1970s. We did Disneyland once a year, but the Japanese Village rated twice a year for our family. Sabu |
