Originally Posted By Labuda Yes, the loading area looking like DL's is new, and the dolls have new outfits, and the sound has been refreshed. Plus, fibre optics have been added to the final room, as have some color highlights to the kids' clothes. Also, of course, interior scenery has been painted.

This site has a picture of the old facade, but just a warning, it plays the song, so you might want to turn the volume on your computer down (or off) first, as it is rather annoying. <a href="http://www.johnswdwpage.com/smallworld.htm" target="_blank">http://www.johnswdwpage.com/sm allworld.htm</a>

Originally Posted By jmuboy brotherdave is correct. Plus, the old stroller parking under those bright circus canopies is now additional switch-back queue line.
Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 I have to say, I really, really like this new rennovation! Personally, I think it's so much better looking, and has some of that original Disneyland charm. It just looks so clean and bright, and has a more timeless look to it. It definately takes it beyond 1971! Now, the only place to see the "old" version is at Tokyo Disneyland.

Guests now enter the covered queue area from the LEFT of the building, next to where the exit gates have always been. Then you switch back and forth several times before going down the ramp, just like before. The exit flow remains the same as before as well.
