    News Caribbean Beach Expansion

    Wow just watched the 30th video. The new hotel just totally dominates the whole area. The skyline stuff too and the traffic, I don’t ever remember seeing vehicles from there before, maybe once the works are finished it will stop? The food hall needed some work when we were last there 3 years ago...

    Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

    It’s got to be good news, it does look a bit Epcotty. It also looks from the concepts that they will keep half the tour if that’s the tram loading beyond swirly saucers: whose orientation indicates access to toy story land v2 maybe from the central avenue.

    DHS Grand Avenue and Baseline Tap House

    Don't think I have seen it mentioned on here before, but those pictures show a small signpost "Historic quarter" is that what they will officially call this area of the park once it's all integrated? Would tie in to what some others have said about the main park taking on an LA theme. After all...

    DHS One Man's Dream to become Walt Disney Presents preview center

    Is the Star Wars section part of the queue for falcon ride? I imagine this is almost what it might open onto from TSL?

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I've got a worrying feeling that is the whole train? Compared to the concept art and scale of it. Maybe they will have 6 going at once? Not many seats.

    Shark Reef to close at Typhoon Lagoon

    Did this on our first visit in 1998! Thought it was unique. Wife didn't do it. Didn't think much of the rest of the park Did it again last year and wife AND kids were not interested! It was great to relive it. Although seemed a bit more rushed and busy this time, as all the parks did. Shame.

    From the OS: Gator drags child into Seven Seas Lagoon

    U.K. Visitor, we know Florida has them, but were surprised to see them and turtles in the CBR lake. I assumed there were nets to try and prevent them reaching main areas? Also in a Disney location you never know if a 'warning Gators' sign is genuine or theming I would see a no swim sign as no...

    DHS Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    This was always my thoughts on a common sense approach. Speed and cost. Use land that's already free or doing very little. I would think the updates they do to ride films are an easy option to keep interest up on star tours. Ideally you would ride the shuttle to emerge in Star Wars land.

    DHS Toy Story Land expansion announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    I've never gone with the SWL being north of star tours. Always screamed to fit into SOA And down to old canyon.maybe muppets will be a little more cantina style. Obviously a lot of the creatures came from the muppet stable. I guess lights camera action cost a bit more to run than Indy? To add a...

    Operating hours of several Epcot attractions and shops to be reduced from Feb 2016

    Looking at this another way would the earlier closure times allow more time to work on soarin? Is the idea to steer guests over the other side of future world, so they can make a bit more noise on the west side?

    Habit Heroes Closed

    I guess times do change we spent hours in the different pavilions in 1998. Couldn't wait to take the kids in 2008 a lot of the interactive stuff was still there but it seemed busier and queues everywhere. Last year there seems very very little to do, and nothing new?

    News Swan and Dolphin Tower Expansion - The Walt Disney World Swan Reserve

    Would they go to this trouble if they were just expecting a crane or some other construction equipment? Loving some of the more imaginative ideas.

    7 Dwarves Mine Train

    I thinks it's busy because it seems to busy and difficult to get on it. Adding to the hype. I wouldn't get a FP everyday? We got a midday FP middle of trip and en evening one for the last day of our trip but that one got rained off! Gutted! Also had an early BoG breakfast booking and planned to...

    How popular are the Glow With the Show ears?

    Weirdly we had 2 pairs on the heads in front of us on our visit. After the initial " those are so cool" it soon became a distraction. Bright ears when you are trying to watch a fairly dark show. Obviously the guests wearing them didn't see any of the effects so more annoying than adding to the...

    Disney disappointment

    Expect too much? We came form UK expected so much going for moderate CBR. First room was bad. Called and got another miles better room. The emotions were so mixed maybe we were tired after the flight. On seeing the first room our hearts sank, and the horror of being stuck in there after paying...
