Originally Posted By irishfan It does seem to be a very exciting time at DLP really looking forward to seeing the place sometime soon. The "Disney Character Express" had a press review this week.

It should look familiar too any regular DLP visitors as it's a refurbished Casey Jnr float from the World of Disney Parade. The music will be familiar to any TDL regulars.

MAJOR YAWN!! Comfirms what I have been saying all along for the past 15 yrs... DLP performers need more/better training to convey the characters' personalities. Even under the rubberheads, these performers look bored to tears, and that conveys in their body language.

Plus, that is a priceless comment coming from someone who likes to bring children into the parks. Refreshing. Most parents haunt the characters for their kids' sakes.
