Mystical

I loved it and it will definitely become a Christmas classic. One thing that enamored me of it was the Department store name,Herpolshiemers. I was amazed,when growing up in Michigan my best friend and I would ride the city bus downtown and spend our Saturdays at a Herpolshiemers store and I assumed it was the only one of its kind until I heard it mentioned early in the Polar Express. I was absolutely flabbergasted when later on in the movie they said,Grand Rapids, Michigan. Can anyone tell me the connection in the movie and why Herpolshiemers and Grand Rapids Michigan is involved? This just floored me and brought back such great memories,as I am 54 now.
