Great report as always Robb, the ship looks amazing.

"Hellfire" was amazing, Patrick Page with a 40 person chorus all bathed in red, it was thrilling and brought the house down

Same here, I never saw the first one ( Walked out about twenty minutes ) saw the second at the drive in and it was better than I thought it would be, but this was a waste

Ngong Ping 360 Just down from the Disneyland Resort is the 5.8km long Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car, that crosses the island to the Ngong Ping village and temple, as you can see from the photos before, the weather was not our friend that day! Um, I hope there is more cable Buddha's In The Mist

Cant wait to see that film Dave looks interesting Saw Hunger Games last week, waste of time, really no reason for this to be two movies.

Saw Hunchback Of Norte Dame at La Jolla playhouse on Friday night, loosely based on the Disney cartoon of the same name, this is a darker version and the Disney name is nowhere to be found in the title. It uses all the main songs from the film. I have been waiting to see this since the 1999 Berlin production opened ( The german cast recording is a favorite ), This was without a doubt one of my favorite nights in theatre, The show is brilliant, heartstopping, heartbreaking, breath taking musical theatre heaven, its dark, no happy endings here, nearly everything works. Act two needs a little more focus, but thats something I hope they fix before it opens at Papermill next year. if the producers ( Disney and others ) play this right this should be up there with Les Mis, Lion King and other mega hit shows. Its been said before, but if you are in SoCal beg, borrow or steal a ticket, you will never forgive yourself if you miss this.

Bill, the night parade was fun, a little disappointed with how the paint the night stuff worked. It will get better with time. The fireworks where ok as well, if you have seen any thing that Disneyland CA have done than its a little of a let down as well But in saying that the park is great, operations where quick for the day, no pushing or line cutting ( that comes later in Ocean Park ) the can only and will get better in the next few years.

Time and a place for word of the day!

Some amazing looking stuff for the next year, thanks for the updates

Castle firework show Castle fireworks Had a really great day at the park

Paint The Night cont....

Paint The Night Parade is sold on the idea that guest can buy a Paintbrush, Ears or a Mickey Glove that changes color in time with show, and at one point the parade stops so people can Paint The Night , it sadly doesn't work as well as Disney hopes, unless you have a performer in front of you ( within a couple of feet ) the paint brushes don't work. It was kinda sad seeing kids waving there paint brushes and nothing happened. Those close enough, the effect was really impressive.

Caught Interstellar the other night, and was really disappointed by it. Dull, overblown, and by the time it finished there was no reason for this movie, a major letdown in every way.

It's A Small World No matter which country you ride this in, by the time it ends DEATH seems like the best idea! Its a Small world, yay singing dolls of the world I beg you, please go that way, make this nightmare end Death, was my friend

Aaron, I was surprised how much I like the park, we spent nearly nine hours in the park and could have spent more, i will post some photos later today of the new Paint The Night parade and the Castle fireworks shows.

Mystic Manor Final Special Effect

Grizzly Gulch And Mystic Manour Photos

The park was not very busy on the Sunday, most things had less than 20 minute waits, Toy Story rides had the longest waits at over 60 minutes. My Best Score Ever Nothing To See, Really nothing to see

Hong Kong Disneyland was wonderful, a real surprise of a park, while Tokyo Disney Resort has my two favorite rides, Poohs Hunny Hunt ( Hong Kong has a watered down version ) And Centre Of The Earth, Hong Kongs new Grizzly Ruanway Mine Train and Mystic Manor are stunning new rides that are both thrilling, themed like no other, and a crap load of fun. Grizzly would have to be the best coaster Disney has done period! Everything about it works, Mystic adds a whole new spin on the classic dark with with amazing special effects, a great story line, and depending on where you sit a different ride. Adventureland was themed out of this world, sadly not at lot there, Lion King show, Tarzans Treehouse and a river Cruise, really nothing to see. Toy Story Land had the longest lines of the day. Tomorrow land was the standard mix of rides from all other Disney Parks, Fantasyland was busy, and with the new ride coming in the next year or so, plus the announced Iron Man ride, this park should be on the list of any Disney Fans must do list A Passage To India! Evita? Pretty Squeeze me in, Damn it I will be a princess!

Spent last weekend in Hong Kong with the dutch boy, stayed at the Conrad for three days, photo heavy trip report follows, not a lot of words. Hong Kong Skyline Anti China Protest Something in that for all of us! Hong Kong Gay Pride Rubber, anyone? Harbor View Room Gay Pride Ho Mo's If I can make it Elissa Friendly Hat

Great looking mid size venue, looks like nothing is too far away from the stage.

Hunchback Of Notre Dame at the La Jolla Playhouse on the 21st November, can't wait. Love the german recording, finally get to hear it in english.

Cant wait for Into The Woods, they just need to release a trailer, like now! Saw John Wicks today, turned out to be a very awesome movie, tongue in cheek, Reeves was wonderful. A crap load of fun

Thank you both, I was going insane trying to find it. Now all I need to work out is can I get a tour from Macau. Once again thanks
