    You can also get some amazing upclose shots from the new bridge by the Tarzan theatre.

Let's see: Everest at AK, Will be at the Hong Kong park since it also opens that year and OF COURSE will definitely be experiencing TOT at DisneySea when it comes in '06. Now, I just have to figure out how I'm going to pay for it all lol, but I'll find a way, I always do :).


    Oh, BTW, anyone know anything that is happening at the DLR in 2006? Any new E-tickets at DL? How about a new original attraction at DCA? Nope, I thought not ;).
