Possible Third Park

When I was there in Jan the drivers of the busses on our route all pointed out the property as the site of the new Disneyland waterpark.Don't know if they know anymore than we do but it was more than one driver.

Well, just got back and they need to do something. I was shocked at how congested the park was in certain areas, most notably adventureland, new orleans square and fantasyland -- is it my imagination or does MK just flow better? It seems like they learned the flaws of the original design and fixed them for MK. I was thinking the whole time I was there that they need a third gate!

The Magic Kingdom does flow better ... WDI was able to use that they learned from the building and running of DL in 85 acres and maximize the public areas of MK on 100 acres. So, it's bigger and there was more thought put into the flow of the walk ways, which is one thing they didn't have the foresight back in the 50's considering modern traffic at DLR.

That's why we use the word "quaint" ... just like a hotel in Europe.

Wow, what a difference 15 acres makes! I guess the utilidors and underground networks also make a big difference (it was certainly strange watching CM's arrive and going to work). That being said, I loved DL -- it just does have charm that MK lacks in certain areas. Of course MK has it's advantages too!
