Thu 3/22/2007 6:41a | Hi all... I just got back to my hotel from HKDL... got more pics to share but that will take a few days until I get home.
Some updates... the IASW contruction wall is up. Extends from the tea Cups, all the way down to the Golden Mickeys entrance. Got some photos from the contruction itself since the building is now a bit more visible to guests from inside the park.
Got to enjoy two of the finest theme park shows around..Golden Mickeys and Fest of the Lion King. Noticed they have added flat screen TV monitors with english or mandarin subtitles when necesary. It was nice to be able to read what they were saying during the Golden Mickeys... and now I feel like I have enjoye the show much better. KUDOS...
Of course, the park was uncrowded and most rides were walkons..except Autopia. The park continues to be well maintained and cleaned. WDW, are you paying attention??? The folks that trained there are actually doing a much better job that YOU!
There are also some refurbishments going on... to the right of the main turnstyles in particular, where a wall is up. Not sure what is being done in that area. Also.. I climbed Tarzan's treehouse looking for some signs of contruction in the rumored area where some Pirate related attraction is supposed to go up... well... I saw no such construction activity in that area, except for what looks like a backstage building of sorts.
And that's my mini update for today. Tomorrow, I got over to TDL to check the new floats added to Dreamlights Parade. Later dudes!!!

Sat 3/24/2007 6:55p | I don't know if it's the same thing, but when I saw The Golden Mickeys last summer, there were flat screen TV's with subtitles. I didn't get any pictures of them, but I think they were turned sideways (portrait style, instead of the traditional landscape look), and had LED subtitles under them, with Chinese on one side and English on the other. |

Same applies to the Festival of the Lion King, where they installed flat TVs over the seating area for the benefit of the chinese, since the show is mostly in english. |

If we could afford him, we'd put him on the payroll.
If we had a payroll. |
