I enjoyed the pictures very much. The exposures you used enhanced many of the pictures. I know that taking pictures in the snow is not easy. Thanks again. Maurie

Originally Posted By Mr X I was a little surprised to see the walkway up to the castle still covered in snow (understanding that it was still snowing of course!), with just a "yellow cone" along the pathway to warn folks. At TDL, in the snow, they are CONSTANTLY shoveling the white stuff away as it comes down. And not just custodial either, regular attractions CM's and even the MANAGEMENT team gets in on the shoveling! Almost NOONE is excused from duty in the snow! (I say almost, since of course Cinderella and Mickey and also some suits from up high don't manage to pick up a shovel...but ALMOST everyone else is "on duty") What is the "snow duty" situation at EuroDisneyland like? Just curious...

Originally Posted By TDLFAN Mr X, your comments don't surprise me because it's a different attitude towards work at DLP.

But having seen beautiful DLP trashed to the max in my most recent visits there, seeing snow piled up to guests' knees just doesn't surprise me. It is pretty to look at right?

Originally Posted By ScroogeMcDuck That's a dumb exaggeration. I've been to a snowy DLRP many times and no, they do not let you swim in 6 ft. of snow. Sheesh. And oh - It's not "trashed" either. But hey. if you want to see it in that pessimistic little way of yours... Fine.
