    New Top Dog at Disneyland Paris

    Phillipe has definately got a lot of expectations to fulfill. After Karl seems to have turned the resort around. Best of luck to them in their new positions.

    WOO-HOO My book finally came

    Yeah I have to agree this is a brilliant book. All the info you've been dying to find out. Great photos and illustrations PLUS he has a blog page, which today has a quiz until the 4th of May 08 about Tower of Terror. Could be worth a look. disneyandmore.blogspot.com (I think)

    Hotel rip-offs?

    Another thing to bear in mind is timing. We stayed at the DLH in dec 2006 and only paid around £600 for 3 nights. The best example of this is our current booking. at the Sequoia lodge. We got a price for 3 night from the 2nd sept and it was £800 then got a price for 3 nights on the 7th sept...

    Boyd Coddington Dies:connected to Disneyland

    I have to say that I'm absolutley gutted. Although I only knew him through the American Hotrod TV show, I loved the way he worked and even tried to incorporate some of his elements into my work place. Interesting about his link with Disney. RIP Boyd.

    Disney Room Ideas

    One thing I'd love to do. Get a load of chicken wire and plaster and build a finding nemo style room. Inside the fake rocks I'd inset a marine fish aquarium. Paint the ceiling blue. A sandy coloured carpet. I suppose you get the idea. You can even get lights tha cast a ripple effect accross the...

    Hidden Pluto at the Disney-MGM Studios?

    Hmmmm. The hidden Pluto is a little disapointing. I've spotted it on the old maps and found the mickey and pluto using Google maps. I was about load up some screen captures, but I can't from this computer. The Mickey is still quite visable, but you always needed a bit of imagination with the Pluto.

    If You Are About To Go To Dlp - Don't Go!!!!

    I'll agree with this statement. When we went to DLRP we ended up sitting on the airports bus for about an hour while the driver was arrested! Ended up at the hotel for a meal at 10.00 pm and rush through 3 courses as the restaurant closed at 10.30pm. We just laughed it off and it became a...

    Walt Disney Biography! Awesome!!

    I must admit I haven't read that one, but I have read quite a few books about Walt and other influential people in the Disney company. I found the books are either 100% backing or 100% attacking. For example can you guess which way "Walt Disney - Hollywood's Dark Prince" swung? I'll just say...

    Disneyland Resort Paris to be reclaimed by French gov't. by 2017?

    In reference to the nature village. I read that they were buying more land to build the village. Part of it is on the Davy Crocket part and the rest will be new purchased land. And I would definately back up the idea of a water park. Originally there was supposed to be a water park built...

    Illustrator Maps of Disney Parks

    I'm guessing that svg stands for Scalable Vector Graphic. I deal with images and artwork for a living and vectors based graphics generally are the best for most things (except for photos). And I'd agree that I would have thought somebody would have traced them in a program already. Hmmmmm...

    Disney MGM Hollywood Studios

    Years ago I think you could sit in the studio audiences for the Sitcoms. Forgive me if I'm wrong. We fancied going to the Home Improvement filmings, but never got around to organising how to find out about the tickets. I Think they used to advertise it inside the Disney Park buses. It would...
