I am in love with the idea of London as a land in Hong Kong. It's historically and culturally fitting. Good choice there. Your Shakespearean area was my favorite element, executed to a near perfect degree. The Mary Poppins ride seemed very long, considering the number of full size animatronics (or are they animated figures?). Otherwise, it was a decent, heartwarming ride. The Peter Pan ride was a good fit and a nice choice considering the lack of dark rides in Hong Kong, as you mentioned. Everything else, from merchandise, to eateries, to Admiral Boom, really made for a clever proposal. Well done.

I love the way this land hardens back to the Arctic Bay Area they almost build, but with slight changes in focus to differentiate it from Ocean Park. I am a sucker for synergy and SEA fits into that niche. Great concept with the Schloss, but I feel more could have been done with that creatively. Avalanche! seemed like a fun ride, even if very simplistic and, at times, dark (ie FROZEN BODIES). The shop was a nice spot to connect the SeA story some more as well, though perhaps an original character would have been better than HHIII. Overall, good job.

Apologies for the late post here, I just got around to reading Team Goofy's submission more thoroughly.

Don't know if anyone noticed (or if I missed it), but they didn't include the one-minute promotional video.

Personally I thought the video didn't make much sense in a challenge like this weeks...and we didn't nearly have enough time to complete it all.

Sorry for the delay have been extremely busy. Critiques are going to be short and sweet

Like JDM I really like the idea of London from a cultural standpoint in Hong Kong. The land was really well rounded and complete. Everything works well and support the other things in the land. The one complaint i have is there isnt really a huge attention grabbing ride here to pull people in and to HKDL. Fantastic project guys.

Goofy
Love the concept here and really wish you had the time to develop it further. This concept is full of Unique ideas and reminds me a lot of the glacier point expansion concept. I know your team had schedule issues but as pointed out there is no promotional video. The concept also still has a lot of room to develop and grow. Great project.

The resort can be a Deluxe, Moderate or Value resort but is expected to have a fully immersive theme. At least one restaurant and a pool area are required for the resort. Get creative and do something that hasn't been done before.

TEAM MICKEY PRESENTS...

Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort


One of the best parts about a magical vacation at the Walt Disney World Resort is staying inside the "magic bubble" and spending your days, and nights at a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel. From free transportation to a relaxing pool retreat and five-star customer service, there are countless reasons why guests continue to return to Walt Disney World Resort Hotels.

More than 2 dozen of these resorts make up the Walt Disney Resort, with three levels of price, theme and amount of amenities offering various experiences and price levels for Walt Disney World guests. Within the past several years, Disney has introduce new or upgraded their Value and Deluxe level resorts. However, the moderate level at Walt Disney World hasn't really seen any major updates for the past several years. For this reason, Team Mickey has decided to introduce the Moderate level Resort Hotel, Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort. Enjoy your stay!

LOCATION



Located in the rural, yet peaceful area of the Magic Kingdom Resort Area, Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort will enchant guests with it's close proximity to Magic Kingdom and other Disney Resorts such as Disney's Wilderness Lodge. We at Team Mickey chose this location because we feel that a beautiful moderate resort will help round-out and develop this back corner of the resort, while also being close (or being a short bus ride away) to the parks, other resorts, Disney's water parks and Disney Springs.

THEMING
Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort
will be themed to traditional San Francisco style architecture.



LOBBY AND GUEST AREAS
The lobby of a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel makes the first impression on guests as they arrive on their magical vacation and the last impression as they travel home to reality. Here at Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort, the lobby will feature a homey, yet grand experience inspired by one of California's most famous cities.

In addition to the lobby, Disney's San Francisco Bay Resort has countless guest areas available for guest use. From quiet areas in a grove of trees to the hustle and bustle of the boat dock.
