Good evening,
The highly-anticipated WDW 3D Google Earth Tour has been launched!

You'll need Google Earth to view it... pretty impressive look around the Parks.

So maybe I'm being slow this morning, but I can't make this work. I've downloaded the software, can get to disney world, clicked the gold mouse, clicked on show in 3D, clicked on the magic kingdom, but I don't get that cool flyover. Which step am I leaving out?

Awesome -- now that school's out, I wish I had a hi-speed connection at home. My kids would be entertained for hours!

Here's the view from the Polynesian Pool that inspired "There's a restroom in our volcano, Cinderella's in our pool!" :)

It's not like being there, but it's pretty good!
