Also, Disneyland somehow manages to have all those things and then some, while WDW demolishes everything that isn't falling apart.

Let's also throw in a Skyway replaced by bathrooms. Which also means a suberb Bavarian hillside area replaced by five strory Bavarian buildings overlooking a single story cartoon town square slash toilets.
While DL lost its Skyway too, its castle regained its attraction where ours is now closed off for traffic, the mosaic mostly hidden, the shop replaced by a tart-up-your-daughter so nobody can visit it anymore, and the restaurant taken over by princesses. At least we can still visit the Sword in the Stone ceremon....wait, gone too.
Should we include the MK's fine Toontown replaced by an already existing spinner and toddler splash area?

That looks incredible! They could build rides like that for Tangled and Frozen without spending $100M each and they would be beloved.

The one thing I like better in the old version was the cards you pushed away to get outside.
Are you and the fam planning on coming out here next year at all???

Yeah, that is a little disappointing that the cloudy spiral was that, as though it was the end of the ride.
Also, this is just the nostalgia talking, but I'm also a little disappointed that they removed the last appearance by the Cheshire Cat as you go through the cloudy tunnel en route to the last scene with the Unbirthday Party, and Alice saying, "I hope I don't meet any more mad people," and the Cat saying, "Oh, you can't help that."
But like I said, that's just the nostalgia talking. The rest of the ride is pretty good.
I'm going to try and get a group of us together for the celebration. Hope you can join us, whoever goes!

I love what they have done with the ride. I was disappointed that Alice was nowhere to be seen in the original version except in a hidden spot, but now you seen her in almost every scene.

Have a timeframe for the date yet?
Nope, not yet. It depends on what Disney announces on the 17th. I don't know exactly when they plan on starting the celebration. Once that information in released, I can get a better sense. I was thinking of a group trip during the summer.

That's definitely something I would be looking forward to!
But why does CA have to be so expensive!?
Anyways.... Fingers crossed

While California is expensive to visit, my wife and I actually find visiting Disney is cheaper than it is in Orlando when you stay across the street.

Alice is actually my least favorite of the Fantasyland rides. The updates were cool, but nothing really huge, which is a good thing. At least they didn't ruin it. I do prefer the newer version.
