Blog 12: The Happiest Place on Earth

Disneyland is one of my all time favorite places in the world.  No matter how many times I go, I always want a chance to go back.  Like my mom, I love how Disney can make dreams and magic a reality.  Especially thorugh their shows.  One of my favorite parts aside from the rides and the good food and the Disney parks is their shows.  They always do an amazing job with their various shows ranging from musicals, parades, fireworks, and watershows.  The next show on my list to see is the World of Color which is a water/light show at Disney's California Adventure Park.  One way Disney used created this watery light display was with the use of fiber optics to make the streams of water shooting in the air change color.  The water looks like it is changing color because the colored lights are internally reflected inside the streams of lights, traveling along the stream of water without reflecting out, which is why the light will bend with the water instead of refracting out of the water.  The result, is a beautiful, color, display that is fun to see for all the ages.
