As you all know, Hollywoodland is the final overview until the final draft of the park is released later in June. To those of you who have been with me from the beginning, thank you. To those who have been with me from the beginning, middle, or as of late, thank you. I promise that the final draft will not disappoint in the slightest, and that it will be dedicated to you, as well as all those who have been apart of my armchair Imagineering "career" for the past eight years.
Expect to see revised sub-areas, new sub-areas, deleted sub-areas, new attractions, new ideas, possible new lands, better-worded overviews, a daytime parade, proper grammar
(I'm going to be an English major, so I should know better), coverage of Port Disney (the shopping district), overviews of both hotels, and much, much more. Also expect to see some fantastic concept art by my wonderfully-talented friend
@Basketbuddy101 in regards to my park's Haunted Mansion. The park itself might have to expand in size with all the new and old material I have coming your way!
One of the dark rides included in Hollywoodland will call for the removal of the Snow White Castle Mystery Tour. You'll see why soon enough.
Even then, the final draft won't be the end of this thread. There are still plenty of scripts, ride-throughs, and detailed overviews to go into, and, to a possible extent, the slight chance of a second theme park, although the latter is a far-distant concept that has yet to be determined for a number of reasons.
Seriously, you haven't seen anything yet, and that's a promise. Today, we will dive into Hollywoodland and from there, we'll move on. As always, enjoy.
_____________________________
In our day at Disneyland Australia, we've explored the furthest reaches of a galaxy far, far away... We've ventured to the darkest jungles of Africa, Asia and South America... We've journeyed into a timeless kingdom of childhood enchantment and fantasy, and now, we find ourselves headed southwest from the Hub and towards the ornate entryway of Tinseltown as it appeared in its Golden Age. Inspired by the 1916 film Intolerance, golden elephants stand atop adjacent Babylonian-pillars, triumphantly looking to Adventureland across the Hub. The Red Car Trolley passes through the entryway and towards what one would naturally expect the land's weenie to be: the Hollywoodland Sign high atop a grass-covered hill. At its forefront, the legendary Chinese Theatre casts a series of searchlights to the heavens, attracting our attention to the City of Angels as it appeared not so long ago.
Stepping into Hollywoodland is a step back in time to an era where "any office boy or young mechanic could be a panic, with just a good-looking pan." This is yesteryear Los Angeles as it appeared in a time when anyone and everyone could make it, a romanticized representation of the "Hollywood that never was." Trolley cables hang throughout the "skies," while the Red Car Newsboys exclaim the "daily" headlines through song and dance aboard their trolley "stage." Keystone cops patrol the streets in search of ne'er-do-wells, while an overly-flamboyant movie starlet canoodles her poodle to the adoration of her "fans." The Citizens of Hollywoodland simply and thematically add to the immersive environment, all the while setting a period that is further established in Art Deco architecture and rooftop billboards representing fictional and nonfictional products of the 1930's and 40's. Big band beats fill the air, only, unlike Adventureland, they are played in crisp, fresh orchestrations rather than crackling radio transmissions.
Hollywood Boulevard serves as the main drag of Hollywoodland, leading us directly to the forefront of the aforementioned Chinese Theatre and Hollywoodland Sign. But before heading there, we pay a visit to the various shops and eateries located along either side of the street. Fairfax Market is an outdoor grocery stand selling fresh fruits, snacks, and refreshments, represented as an authentic open-air grocery stand of a bygone era. Adjacent to Fairfax is Philippe's, the first international spin on the world famous Los Angeles French Dip shop, complete with French Dips, pastrami, Lamp Dips, and an abundance in authentic details, from sawdust on the floors to jars of pickled eggs on the counters. The Red Car makes its first of two Hollywoodland stops outside Julius Katz & Sons, a family-run business selling home decor and Disney-themed kitchen supplies. The Red Car Five & Dime is a "one-stop shop," that, while featuring generic merchandise, also features merchandise related to the Red Car and other railways. It seems only fitting that the 20th Century Limited, Disneyland Australia's take on Club 33 sits next door.
Held within a facade inspired by Union Station, the 20th Century Limited welcomes a select few aboard America's most famous train of yesteryear, a private, "members only" restaurant entirely found aboard the lavish steam train's dining car(s). While we dine, the windows and rumbling floor simulate a trip around the vast expanse of California through stunning means of technology. For those who can't afford the club's exclusive membership, a small "taste" of select wines and appetizers sold aboard the train are sold in a small bar inside the station called Gable's, supposedly frequented by Clark Gable himself between movie shoots, as evident by his autographed-headshot above the alcohol supply.
The Hollywoodland Five & Dime, a band of madcap jazz musicians and their beautiful female lead vocalist can often be seen parading up and down Hollywood Boulevard aboard an old jalopy performing daily routines outside the Chinese Theatre, shortly followed by a set from the previously mentioned Newsboys. The Emporium takes us back to a department store of a bygone time, boasting crystal chandeliers, sweeping rotundas, stylized-mannequins, and period inventory (i.e. fedoras and extravagant jackets). Next door, Hollywood Forever (no, not the cemetery in California of the same name) sells presumably fair-gotten props and relics from film, featuring a back-of-house prop room lined with more expensive inventory, such as a recreation of Dorothy's ruby slippers and Luke Skywalker's self-built lightsaber. Sid Cahuenga, Talent Agency assures us that they can turn anyone or anything into a STAR, dressing us up as a star and placing us on the cover a magazine or in our very own acting headshot. Hollywood Clothiers may or may not assist in Sid's business, promising to dress anyone up like the greats in a matter of seconds.The Hollywood Brown Derby, famous for its hat-shaped restaurant and Cobb Salad finds new life in Disneyland Australia, boasting an interior decorated with celebrity-based caricatures and paintings of the era. Mickey's of Hollywood sells any and all things related to kid-friendly merchandise, from stuffed Mickeys to Disney character-themed clothing. As cheesy as it the name sounds, Award Wieners at the final corner of the blvd stands in the spirit of Hollywood's famous Pink's Hot Dogs, selling hot dogs and gourmet sausages from a window with a line that stretches around the block. Streetside tables with umbrellas provide ample dining space and perfect views of the live street entertainment.
Only one attraction makes its home on the curbside stretch of Hollywood Blvd. This attraction is, respectively, Just One Dream - The Walt Disney Story.
Appropriately held in the "historic" Roy Disney Theatre, we find an exhibit showcasing the man, the myth, and the legend who was Walt Disney. Amid relics of the Walt Disney Company's past, we find animation cells from classic animation, a model of Disneyland in California, and a hand-painted mural of Walt surrounded by not one, but all of the major film characters overseen in his tenure with his company, from Mickey Mouse to Captain Hook.
(So, only some of the characters seen in the above mural would be excluded, but I'm sure this helps get the idea across)
Just One Dream sits us in an intimate, Main Street Opera House-type theater where we learn the inspiring story of Walt and his brother Roy as they started out with nothing and worked their way to the top in a moving, historical presentation with varying means of media in use, including the title song of the attraction: "Just One Dream." Historical moments featured include the conception of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Mickey Mouse, the advent of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and of course, the opening of Disneyland. Interestingly enough, Walt makes his first audio animatronic appearance in any theme park, recreating that famous opening day speech as well as several classic quotes.
The world famous Chinese Theatre greets us as we reach the end of Hollywood Boulevard, also bringing us to a fork in the road with Sunset Boulevard to our right and Valiant Street to our left. As expected, cement panels embroidered with the signatures and handprints of countless "Disney celebrities" greet us as we approach the theatre, the theatre itself playing home to a modern-day incarnation of the Great Movie Ride: Adventures in Cinema.
Evading the typical box office fee, we enter the Chinese Theatre and find ourselves magically transported into not the interior of the theatre, but instead the black and white laboratory of Dr. Frederick Frankenstein (Fronk-en-Steen) of Young Frankenstein fame. Weird bits of machinery and macabre gadgets hint at an ongoing experiment by the mad doctor. Our suspicions prove true when Igor (Eye-Gore) pops-up, informing us that the latest Fronk-en-Steen invention is bound to be a real thrill, supposedly able to transport living matter into the cinematic world like never before. When we board said invention ourselves, we are whisked into the reels of countless classic films both new and old, ranging from Gone with the Wind to The Wizard of Oz, all ending in an outrageous movie crossover and battle between all the visited worlds, a la Blazing Saddles. Heck, the finale is even set in the town of Rock Ridge, the setting of Blazing Saddles.
Exiting the Chinese Theatre, we head to the left-side of the fork in the road, heading down Valiant Street to the south. Valiant St is appropriately named for Eddie Valiant, the detective hero of the animation-live action-hybrid, Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
With a distinct 1940's-flare, Valiant Street takes us through a quaint portion of Hollywood alongside the Red Car which chugs past the abandoned stronghold of Cloverleaf Industries, Judge Doom's former evil enterprise that appears now as nothing more than the hollowed-shell of a building. Valiant & Valiant across the street is the false facade of Eddie Valiant, Private Eye. The Terminal Bar sits in too-close-a-proximity with the passing Red Cars, the bar under the ownership of Dolores, Valiant's no-nonsense girlfriend. The bar itself offers cheap drinks and appetizers, making every hour of the day a "happy hour" despite the Red Cars causing the entire bar to shake and quake like an earthquake is well underway. Valiant St seamlessly transitions ourselves and the Red Cars into Blue Moon Boulevard in Eliasburg, transitioning with the Sci-Fi Diner of Eliasburg. Billboards advertising the latest monster movie help strengthen this sci-fi transition. Ignoring Eliasburg for now, we continue to explore what Valiant St and Hollywoodland have to offer, starting with the pinnacle of Hollywood animation: Disney Animation.

Held inside an Art Deco studio appearing to be held in place by statues of the seven dwarfs (much like the real animation studio in Burbank), Disney Animation gives us a first-hand account at the magic of the pen. Inside the well-sized building, we are greeted by a lobby inspired by California Adventure's attraction of the same name. Interchanging segments cast upon giant screens showcase stills and artwork from countless Disney and Pixar classics, appropriately played against the most memorable songs from the featured film. This Animation Lobby serves the purpose of being a "hub" for the rest of the building's features, starting with Animation Academy. Visiting the Animation Academy treats us to a demonstration from a trained Disney sketch artist. We are allowed a first-hand experience in drawing the same character, even being allowed to take our sketch home with us. Sorcerer's Workshop takes us deep into Yen Sid's private chambers, where we are able to draw basic animation reels and try them out in "reels," all while Yen Sid peers at us and says bits of wisdom from his animated portrait. Also found in Yen Sid's lair is the mesmerizing Toy Story Zoetrope, a constantly-spinning optical illusion that brings to life several sculptures of characters from the film(s). Sorcerer's Workshop paves the way into Ursula's Grotto, the eerie but humble abode of Ursula the Sea Witch. Rather than stealing our voice for her own benefit, Ursula allows us to do a bit of voiceover work, re-recording our own voices over classic scenes from Disney animation. Following Ursula's Grotto is one of the most beautiful areas in the entire park: the Beast's Library. A portrait of Prince Adam overlooks the whole of the monstrous library directly above the ever-wilting enchanted rose. Every so often, the last petal of the rose falls, causing the lights to dim and the unseen Beast to cast a gash clear across his own portrait's face. In the library, Lumiere and Cogsworth allow us to test our personalities and discover which Disney character "we are," often resulting in humorous results.
Character Close-Up provides a randomized meet-n-greet experience with the "Character of the Day." Every morning, a character is selected by a computer and scheduled for an all-day meet-n-greet in the space providing an experience that always proves to be different. Two additional features focus on something that might be considered odd, but whatever, they're fun! Back To Neverland, while slightly dated, is reintroduced in Disneyland Australia as a tribute to its stars, the late Robin Williams and Walter Cronkite. Back To Neverland showcases how hand-drawn animation is (or was) created. In it, Walter Cronkite narrates as Robin Williams is turned into a little lost boy and sent to Neverland where he engages in conflict with Captain Hook, of course ending happily. Following the short film, another film is played, this film being entitled Back to Neverland - Again. Narrated by Geoffrey Rush, Hugh Jackman is put in the shoes of Robin Williams this time around, discovering how modern CGI and hand-drawn animation are born and picking up where the first battle with Hook left off in an all-new dimension. Of course not all animation is hand-drawn or computer-animated...

Jim Henson's Muppet Workshop is unique to Disneyland Australia in the sense that it provides live puppet shows and an exhibit all about Jim Henson's Muppets from their early days in Sam and Friends to their heyday in The Muppet Show. For a good sum of money, we can design our own Muppet and receive one-on-one tips from a trained-Muppeteer. If we do not wish to pay, all we have to do is pick-up a spare Muppet Whatnot from the Muppet Chest and enjoy. Other features in the workshop include a viewing room constantly playing Muppet sketches from over the years, and a meet-n-greet with Kermit the Frog.

Back outside, the familiar tune of "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2" hums out from the close-knit walls of the infamous Ink & Paint Club. Entering through a "secret" entrance, we step foot inside the speakeasy-like lounge which also just so happens to be one of Hollywoodland's finest eating and drinking establishments. Like the film, the club stands as somewhat of a mismatched collaboration of the human and Toon worlds, with a cartoon octopus at the bar (although real humans serve the drinks) and "live entertainment" from Donald Duck who pounds away at the keys of a grand piano, constantly quacking wisecracks. Human musicians also play when Donald is on break. Although our waiter is human, the penguins from Mary Poppins do wander about the restaurant with bussing trays, frantically attempting to make a living prior to their film debut more than a decade later.
Just a short distance from the Ink & Paint Club sits the stronghold and birthplace of all overtly-outrageous gags and pranks seen in cartoons, the Gag Factory. Aside from being our easy access to multiple gags and gifts, the Gag Factory serves a more thematic purpose than just being a gift shop. Just beyond its back-wall and around the corner of the building is the squiggly-lined border to Toontown, the living space of many a Toon.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8pFJGYTygg
Dr. Seuss-like architecture and a distinct lack of straight-lines makes up the fictitious Hollywood suburb of Toontown. Wacky architecture and bizarre scenery are all apart of the mix, warping us into the colorful reels of Who Framed Roger Rabbit's animated segments. Unnaturally-designed automobiles line the streets, while fireworks sound off and belch smoke from the clearly-burnt firework factory. Classic Silly Symphony themes overpower the big band beats; the old jailhouse allows convicts of any age to bend the bars and escape; the gas station pumps appear to be inhabited by googly-eyed goldfish; gunshots and cowboy-like hollers emit from the "Western Prop Warehouse." Overwhelmed with our surroundings, we first pay a visit to the small residential portion of Toontown.
Goofy's Paint 'n' Play is our first stop, held inside the twisted towers and altogether ramshackled facade of Goofy's House. This non-ride experience allows us to take control of a "paint-gun" and blast a multitude of vibrant colors at the walls, turning each room of Goofy's abode into a truly "artistic" masterpiece. Goofy himself appears in his garden near the exit of the Paint 'n' Play. Donald's Boat stays afloat in nearby Toontown Lake, providing explorations of the S.S. Daisy and an all-day Donald meet-n-greet. Launchpad McQuack's Plane Crazy is a family-friendly coaster found among the vibrant hills of Toontown, themed to everyone's favorite duck pilot from the soon-to-be revived DuckTales. While aboard our own plane-train, we encounter various sight gags and obstacles, such as a coop filled with squawking chickens and a run-in with a freak thunderstorm, the storm clouds having a rather disgruntled facial expression. Chip & Dale's Treehouse features a playground in the spirit of the original Chip & Dale's Treehouse at Disneyland, complete with a lawyer-friendly tree-slide and "acorn crawl."
Naturally, both Mickey's House and Minnie's House finish the remainder of the residential area. Both houses, next door to each other, of course, provide a walking tour of the homes of Mickey and Minnie, as well as an all-day meet-n-greet with both. As such, both Mickey and Minnie are able to speak to guests and blink their eyes, an interactive feature unique to this portion of the park.
Back in the downtown area near the Ink & Paint Club and Gag Factory, we find the aforementioned jailhouse, firework factory, and such, as well as the Toontown Opera House, home to Mickey's PhilharMagic, the park's only 4D film. Attending the 1st Annual Toontown Philharmonic Concert, we pay witness to Donald sneakily steal Mickey's sorcerer cap and unintentionally get warped into the various worlds of Disney animation. Visited locations include Aladdin, Dumbo, Peter Pan, The Lion King, Hunchback of Notre-Dame, and more, the film itself clearly updated from the Magic Kingdom original.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BAqWWOlH_0
Not too far from the Opera House sits a facade mixed in the Art Deco and Dr. Seuss-style, inspired by a mix of Union Station in Los Angeles and Grand Central Station in New York City. Stylistic skeletons in the style of The Skeleton Dance appear to hold up the weight of the building, while a familiar owl and series of mean-eyed cats join the embroidered-decor. A slanted doorway leads us inside the "station" and through the mean-eyed (literally, mean-eyed) back alleys and shadowy corners of Toontown. What we find beyond is the infamous Disney Villains' Nightclub, a madcap trip through an outrageous nightclub infested with the worst of the worst, the vilest of the vile, the meanest of the mean, the ugliest of the ugly.
Manager Pete welcomes us to the jazz lounge where we find Oogie Boogie, Emperor Zurg, and Frollo partaking in a friendly game of cards. When Frollo realizes that Oogie is cheating, Zurg is thrown into a fit of rage, blasting us backwards with his ion-cannon and onto the dance floor where countless villains interact in a collective environment of scum and villainy. After a quick trip through the kitchen (run by some seriously gristly chefs; i.e. the Evil Queen, Brer Fox, and the Horned King), we have a second run-in with Pete, Pete having attained the power of dark magic, transforming himself into a Pete-headed dragon, a la Maleficent. Luckily, Sorcerer Mickey arrives just in the knick of time, saving the day and giving us a happy ending as we ride off onto the smiley-faced sunset.
(Concept art pictured above was drawn by @Disneyson a long, long time ago. He created the concept art for me when I pitched the villain ride to MiceChat back in 2009)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cr4WwrQjEWI
The real point of interest in downtown is Roger Rabbit in Motorcar Madness! For the first time ever, we are thrust into the action of a Roger Rabbit and Baby Herman cartoon. Hopping aboard Lenny the Cab, we are thrust onto the set of the cartoon, overwhelmed in an immersive, three-dimensional environment that appears to be almost two-dimensional. As this is an EMV ride in the spirit of Indiana Jones Adventure, thrills are well underway the moment a resurrected Judge Doom (finally appearing in his non-Christopher Lloyd disguise) and the Weasels crash the film shoot and kidnap co-star Jessica. What ensues next is a madcap adventure through Toontown that results in countless gags, such as a trip to the sloth-operated DMV (before they were famous), an explosive visit to the TNT Factory, and a happy ending only Roger Rabbit and his outlandish crew could dish out. Having enjoyed the trip so much, we return to the Chinese Theatre to see what else Hollywoodland has to offer, hopefully something that's just as fun, if not more fun!
Venturing down Sunset Boulevard from the forefront of the Chinese Theatre, we find that the street splits into two diversions itself, one headed straight for neighboring Marvel City to the north, the other leading to a darkened corner of old Hollywood, a la the infamous film and musical, Sunset Boulevard...even the precious convertible seen in the beginning of said film makes an appearance at the street corner, only mysteriously, the car seems to have been unattended for some time... Intrigued by the split, we decide to head straight first, first passing the iconic Carthay Circle Theatre, the home of another exploration into the expansive world of cinema: Cinemagic. Cinemagic, an updated lift of the Walt Disney Studios Paris film is presented in glorious HD with in-theater effects, and performances by Martin Short and Julie Delpy. Presented entirely in English, the film is updated from the original, allowing new clips, re-recorded dialogue, and more. Cinemagic, while somewhat similar to Adventures in Cinema is a much calmer alternative to those who do not wish to encounter the life-sized animatronics of Godzilla, Nosferatu, or the Alien from Alien in Adventures in Cinema.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=polT8hzNsB4
The majestic Babylonian Palace, inspired by the ancient ruins and deities of Babylon stands tall above Sunset Boulevard, a lavish, Broadway-style theater that seats more than a couple thousand people at least. Inside is a live production that not only has the longest name of any attraction in the park, but also the most ridiculous; Monty Python's Spamalot, Presented by a Big Business Agreement Between Monty Python and Disney takes us back to the decidedly outrageous Dark Ages in a musical recreation of the classic comedy, Monty Python & the Holy Grail. In this fifty-minute, family-friendly (but still hysterical) version of the Tony Award-winning comedy, we join King Arthur, Patsy and Arthur's Knights of the Round Table as they embark on a quest to find the Holy Grail. Along the way, we encounter a Killer Rabbit, a near-immortal Black Knight, the riff-happy Lady of the Lake, Tim the Enchanter, the Knights Who Say "Nee," and countless other classic characters. Rousing music and dance routines include "Knights of the Round Table," "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life," "Find Your Grail," "The Song That Goes Like This," and much, much more.
Also on Sunset Boulevard's straightaway we find Camelot Lot, a Monty Python-esque gift shop designed in the artistic style of Terry Gilliam, the weak-hearted artist seen having an unexpected and rather humorous heart attack in Monty Python & the Holy Grail. Fiddler, Fifer & Practical Cafe, named for the Three Little Pigs of Silly Symphony lore sits near the border of Marvel City and Sunset Blvd, decorated with memorabilia of the Silver Lake Sisters, the real-life inspiration for Fiddler, Fifer and Practical. Tinseltown Treasures, a jewelry shop overlooks the last stretch of Hollywoodland before we venture into Starkville, but before heading back there, we decide to check out the split in Sunset Blvd. To the west, a shadowy street leads us not into a bustling corner of movie town, but instead into an almost-forested portion of road that appears to have been forgotten for some time, particularly forgotten by time itself. At first glance, one might expect to see the likes of Norma Desmond's mansion or even the residence of the delightfully macabre Addams Family or the Munsters, but instead, we find a different house... I've saved my favorite attraction for last...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPM_66dgUyc
In the legend and lore of "Haunted Hollywood," most stories begin with one old house, scarcely noticed by day, but carefully avoided by night. Strangely, the mansion's grounds and courtyards are painstakingly groomed and well-kempt, but as night falls, eerie lights pass from window to window, while the unnatural silhouette of an otherworldly wraith peers out from the attic window. As it seems, the old manor is apparently abandoned, perhaps the estate of a forgotten silent film star. The Pueblo Deco architecture and imposing clock tower eternally stuck on the Roman numeral of XIII (13) have caused many a rumor to surface among the locals, almost all claiming this house to be a Haunted Mansion.
Hollywoodland's Haunted Mansion is just as foreboding... A peculiar chill shivers through us... The hairs on our neck stand straight up... And we feel as if someone is watching as we hasten past the family plot... A high, cast iron-fence stands around the property... Is it there to keep somebody out? Or something inside... The massive doors creak open, as our "Ghost Hostess" urges us to step "lively," others are just dying to get in... Inside is a rotting piece of real estate inhabited by 999 happy haunts from around the world. In this "country club-type" atmosphere, we board a Doom Buggy for a supernatural journey through a labyrinth of frightful chambers. We glide past a casket-filled funeral parlor, a chilling séance circle, a "swinging" wake in the graveyard out back, and an unforgettable encounter in the dust-blanketed screening room, all guided by the sultry voice of our Ghost Hostess...
Disneyland Australia's Haunted Mansion takes us into the scariest version of the attraction yet that retains all the humor of the original with all the scares of the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter. With new rooms, new ghosts, and particularly bone-chilling special effects, the Haunted Mansion is an unforgettable tour through the boundless realm of mist and decay, all culminating in a tour of Memento Mori Cemetery, an overgrown, almost ancient graveyard just outside the Mansion's crypt-exit with a secret underground tunnel connecting to Fantasyland's Halloween Town sub-area. In this peaceful burial plot, we pay tribute to some of Hollywood's fallen icons, as well as some family pets and former residents of the Haunted Mansion, including silent film star Roland Gracey, the owner of the Mansion itself...even in death... Strange & Frightening Sounds sits inside the Mansion's guest house which sits just on the outskirts of the property, the appropriate venue for a Haunted Mansion-themed gift shop where strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls...

Having completed our tour of Disneyland Australia, we realize that...this is just the beginning. This was just a rough draft tour. In fact, none of our trip ever even happened. It was all a pitch from the Imagineers to us, the executive board of the Walt Disney Company. The question now is...should we approve it?
YES.
_____________________________
Stay tuned, my friends! With Shanghai Disneyland's premiere coming up and many other factors coming into play, expect to see the final draft of Disneyland Australia this June! In the meantime, look out for some ride throughs and other things to keep interest going.
