Paradise Pier Morning by atsolo, on Flickr

Never been to Disney California Adventure or Disneyland, so my judgement may be skewed, but I LOVE the theming of Paradise Pier. From what I've seen, they've executed the Victorian-esque seaside amusement park feel very well. And I think the view across the water is so gorgeous.

It's ok, as long as you ignore the midway booths. They fit Toy Story Mania very well into it, I think. Perfect fit, better than theme at HS, in my opinion. It also explains why a lot of the games have a "midway" feel about them.

I found myself actually enchanted with it, and impressed with the theme in person.

I feel like the midway booths would fit perfectly, since it is themed after a classic amusement park and those were common there. And like you said, they help reinforce Toy Story Midway Mania's placement.

Yeah, I just don't like midway games (lost WAY too much money there!)...but at least it makes sense with the theme, unlike Chester and Hesters!

I think the biggest pat on the back for designers should be the way they handled the roller coaster, using way too much steel to build it just so that it "appears" out of the corner of your eye, like a classic wood coaster.

Anyhow, not to derail the thread, my point is simple, very well done Disney, very well done!

Wait, is that a type of crowd control rope they use in Cars Land when it opens in the morning? It's a gas hose!

That's hilarious. I've never noticed that before.
