Disney to build at National Harbor - Washington Business Journal::
"Walt Disney Co. plans to build a 500-room hotel on 15 acres at National Harbor in Prince George's County."
While living at the Ashram on Paradise Island, we often had megalithic, horn blarin' cruise ships to contend with during some not so opportune times. They would motor through the bay, blaring everything from Ace of Base's "The Sign" to TLC's "No Scrubs." I'd be remiss to not mention my favorite mediation interrupter: Sisquo's summer anthem, the "Thong Song."
The National Harbor is a megalith in its own right: taking up a huge chunk of land just over the Woodrow Wilson Bridge, this mega-hotel-and-convention complex in Prince George's County is run by Gaylord Entertainment. It really is a monstrosity.
One of the frequent culprits for waking tent-dwellers on the island was the Disney Tour Ship, with a rousing Donald Duck led "chicken dance." It was merciless. Not quite waterboarding, but up there.
It strikes me that these two are perfect for one another.
