Half of them seem to say Dream, while half say Dreams. It really doesn't make a difference to me which one it is (heck, I would rather have them named after characters, lands, or even historic Disney people), but they should at least be consistant with it. I really just wish they could have come up with something a little more original sounding, and give the towers signs that don't look like they were made in the early '80's. They look like they just rearranged the letters of the old signs to make new ones (that wouldn't work...right?)
