I hope he'll be rewarded for his good deed (the pin trading) and he'll come back from this trip a Refreshed Spirit who is convinced WDW still has lots of Soul.

In my opinon Disney has put much more in the details of DLR. In many respects it is like comparing apples to oranges. Can anyone on the west coast imagine a Disney park with out the matterhorn looming over it? And hands down Indiana Joes has got to be the most incredible Disney attraction in the world. Unbelieveable is an understatement! You know what? I like a world with both DLR and WDW in it!

I just think that TWDC considers it to be because of it's size, it's attendance, and the amount of money it brings in world wide.

To hear one person describe it, it is no longer a matter of “If” but has moved into the realm of “How big?” Either way the long overdue circus tent style banners are on the way out to be replaced with a more fitting looking village theme, probably more in line with what they have at Disneyland." There's more on that link, just didn't want to fit it all.

I felt that the dragon in F had been improved ( and personally I suspect Disney tested the new dragon at WDW and assumed it would fit in DL just like the people in charge of the new DL monorails. I wonder if it was the same experts What a surprise for Californians the monorail didn't fit and the dragon doesn't either.) I also noticed really sparkly effect with Spectromagic lighting. And improved Fireworks in quality but still same basic show. So now I am wondering if it was just my imagination
