When I decided to go to WDW I asked a friend if the Castle there was better than DL's. He said much better. I was a very happy person when I saw Cindy's Castle. To quote Crocodile Dundee, "Now that's a Castle".<<< Awww, great story, Pierce. For me, it's the other way around...I'm looking forward to seeing the ORIGINAL, albiet smaller, Castle.

(Yes another reason to give your money in advance to the Mouse for that big money saver the DDP).

Originally Posted By bobbelee9 Yea, I liked it better pre-character dining. I liked it better when you could go make ressies in the morning for that night. I liked it better when they had the gift shop and I'd wonder if I'd ever have the money or space for a suit of armour.

The kind of small unheralded diversion that makes Disneyland seem like such a complete product.

Forget your dreams of a new E-ticket, this is a new restroom we're talking about. Oh, incidentally, my sources tell me the new bathrooms will be sponsored by Dove soap.
