Disney & More.com has posted some new photos, with scaffolding coming down around the main buildings in Remy's World. The scenic overlay for the costume building on the right here, looks really great! Still stuff to put up on the buildings, but it's looking pretty magnifique, eh? Back to the area where it's probably bathrooms, and where the new gift shop will open. And the new fountain's in front here. C'est bon! -

Silver Dollar City is on my Bucket List. Great t-shirt. And yes I agree with Chuck - no cinnamon bread stains! Amazing. -
^^ Wow, that's a mini-marathon, indeed! Of the four of them, which one did you like best? Worst? Meh?

Interesting randomness, that the name "Daniel" comes up here, and overseas... Bought this at Fuji-Q last summer. One of the few non-shirt souvenirs that had Fuji-Q's logo on it. -

This first time at Blackpool was really a Bucket List thing for myself. I was so thrilled to see it up close and experience this truly unique park. In hindsight, I now compare other "stacked parks" to this one, like Grona Lund. And was totally overblown by their newest attraction that year... Valhalla, "the Viking Experience" (that's my extro) And very very wet probably during and at the end of this amazing indoor hot/cold/wet flume ride experience. I was truly overwhelmed at how great this was - and rode it three more times thru our visit there, lol! And actually, that was the first TAGADA I had ever ridden in my life. Before the China ones! It was a total surprise at the end of the walk-through, and I remember being totally unprepared for no seat belts, but we had seats in it so it wasn't a (ahem) "floor model", heh. But it got freeky and wild as it kept picking up speed. Nothing bouncy like the "floor model," but still an unexpected surpirse for the day. I missed it in the 2010 tour. Now it's a photo-op spot. My shot of the Valhalla front facade - stupid trees got in the way....grrrr. -
I recently enjoyed a bowl of plain old fashioned Kellogg's Corn Flakes with a small spoonful of (gasp) sugar. And - it was good! Next time I might even go back to a box of Raisin Bran for another instant retro flashback, LOL!

Mmmm, I remember my first Mold-A-Rama in front of (then called) Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. 1963, I was ten years old. It was red and it was of the Chinese Arch there with a set of footprints in the middle 'square'. Very cool. And yes, Larry's right about the warthog - I was to mention that, but he beat me to it, lol. Great tour of the zoo, Chris. And get 2 maps next time! If you can. One to mess and mark up, the other clean and good, for memories... without the markings. Actually (edit in here), if you had a clean map, you'd have an in-class contest/game of "Where We Went?" etc. Using the clean map as the "game board".
