EDIT: Someone beat me to it. ;) Sjaak van Horne, a Dutch guy who visits the Vekoma test site on a regular basis, took the following 2 pics. When the employees noticed that someone was taking pics, they quickly covered the vehicles. Picture credits: Sjaak van Horne

True, as also seen here on this pic from dlp.info DLP's version also has FP, while the standby line often reaches 120 minutes on more crowded days. This ride is way to popular to ever replace.

So, what will the future of Disney really be? A Disney-themed attraction at the corner of your street? ;) No, but seriously. I already found they had enough resort before they started construction on Hong Kong Disneyland. Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, Tokyo Disney Resort, and...

When going through this thread again, some question came up to me when reading the following post: Has this been a real existing radio broadcast in the 30's? Or was it created especially for the Jungle Cruise? If so, was the music also created for the Jungle Cruise? Or are they actually...

Actually, they will become a permanent addition to the entrance of the forthcoming Toon Studios at Walt Disney Studios Paris. They will be added to this hat: Photo taken from coastersandmore.de

Hello all! I'm writing this message because of a very special request. I'd like to give my girlfriend a special gift because we are together for almost 4 years. The Lion King has been one of her favourite movies, with Simba (especially adult Simba) being one of her favourite characters. I...

What are the current conditions? How much rain has fallen in the last few days?

Not directly related to Walt Disney World, but more to Disneyland Resort Paris, there has been a Big Thunder Mountain pin released which featered a pretty bad misspelling. Instead of Big Thunder Mountain, it reads Big Thunder Moutain: http://www.pinpics.com/img/p147/pin7368 The pin has been...

The Tokyo Disney Resort version of the Pooh ride? It'll blast away the current version of the Pooh ride for sure, and the old Pooh building can be used for other expansion. The Tokyo Disney Resort version of Winnie the Pooh, makes use of an incredible ride system. Nice themed, trackless...

True, but don't forget that there are more Disney Studios out there, which might cause for some confusions. So, in my opinion: - Walt Disney Studios Florida - Walt Disney Studios California - Walt Disney Studios Paris This would be the best option to name the studios.

This isn't even such a bad idea... Disney could write their own Rock 'n' Roll style soundtrack, which would be even more synchronized to the track (like with the Paris version of Space Mountain).

About Vekoma; Vekoma has designed a new type of coaster under-carriage, that will run much smoother on existing tracks. Disney has confirmed to replace the under-carriages of all Space Mountain trains (DLP). So maybe they finally found the answer to their rough rides. The designed the new...

I do like musicals'. The Lion King musical will premiere in The Netherlands on the 4th of April, 2004... You can probably imagine I'm pretty excited about that! :sohappy:

An awesome site, and they do have 'Disney - The Lion King- Part Of Your World'. :D :D :D

Photos will probably be ready tomorrow. I will use next week for scanning them and putting them on a page together with the tripreport. :)
