Wpw! Amazing photos! Can't wait to see it in person. Nobody does theming like Disney!
ReplyDeletebad show taking flash pictures on the ride!
ReplyDelete@Karen: Thank you very much for your nice comment!!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous: I am sure that the fact that it was the very first day of the attraction can be used as an excuse. Also, like I stated in another comment, all other guests around us were doing the same. Don't worry, we never spoil other Guests' visits.
Thank you sooo much for this incredible update! I have been following your updates about Fantasyland for a long time and am so glad to see the result. Again thank you!!! :)
ReplyDeletewhy are all negative comments always "anonymous"? strange that!
ReplyDeleteAmazing update as always! gutted it'll be another 12 months until I can see this amazing place for myself
Amazing huge and awesome update!
ReplyDeleteThank you very, very much!!!
Not sold on the expansion tough. Theme's clashing and lot's of details look out of place. For instance the beautiful metal nameplate of the Ariel ride and the metal railings outside the ride look out of place. They look perfect for the Nautillus but, although they are beautiful, they clash with the whole theme. The rope and other railings are much better and look they belong. I was maybe expecting to much from Disney now Universal and Sea World are doing awesome themings (finaly).
Still a much needed and very green addition that probably pulls me away from the concrete jungle "old" fantasy land has become now.
Absolutely incredible photo update of the New Fantasyland! This went beyond ANY of my expectations of what to expect on this. It is absolutely stunning.
ReplyDeleteI also can't wait to see this place in a few years with all the trees and shrubs grown in. If you take a look at early park pictures the greenery is all fresh and a lot of it looks missing. Just imagine these trees all filled in providing an even more "forest" effect.
Based on the Beauty and the Beast area and The Little Mermaid I can only imagine what the new Snow White Ride will look like!
Did Disney ever mention if the New Fantsyland will receive Christmas Decorations? I feel like someone said in the past it won't be this year..
Again thank you for your update!!

ReplyDeleteThank you! I made that same point too in the last photo update.
Amazing update.
ReplyDeleteApparently no one READS the posts though, it was clearly stated that flash was used to so you can see the scenes, plus many bloggers and press photographers would be there. Complainers. They're just jealous that you saw it first. haha.
No Christmas Decorations for new Fantasy Land this year, but it will be decorated next year.

Love the update, it's huge!
Don't like the inside of the tavern. Seating looks horrible and the decor on the walls is a mess. The rest looks fun.
Fantastic update! Great pictures :)
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome update admin - very impressive, my thanks indeed!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know if they are keeping it open in soft opening mode? We're there next Tuesday (vacation starts on Saturday - YAY!), and with Test Track still being down I'd really like to see it on this trip.
Wonderful pictures. Really glad that I am the father of two wonderful kids. Gives me a great excuse to take them to Disney and these rides.
