    John Clark and his wife Julie are big Disneyland fans. Back in the 90's John used to run a Disneyland BBS called the Mouse House out of his home. One Sunday he offered, what ended up being, one of the BEST tours of Disneyland anyone could take. His knowledge of Disneyland ranks right up there with DlandDug if not more. One day they decided to follow gods calling and move to Africa and become missionaries.

    If you would like to view his blog and see how life is there you can visit

    <a href="http://6892milesfromdisneyland.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://6892milesfromdisneyland...pot.com/</a>

    and if want to write them their email is on the page. I'm sure they would love hearing from fellow Disney fans.

    BTW Doobie, Rebekah, and I meet for the first time on that tour.
