I'm holding out for a heavily-themed, immersive new thrill ride, the Ewok 'n' Roller Coaster.

There's nothing like hearing the roar of the train behind your teepee to help you relax.<br /><br />I sure hope the two new 'E' ticket attractions planned for the Star Wars Land area are worth it. If it's just more screen/video projection and/or simulator style rides, I will be pissed!!! I want more AAs in the park.K.

I hope that is where they build the Ewok village!

This first photo is retro fabulous. <br /><br />Those frozen daiquiri's will no doubt be a hit at the Frontierland Native American Casino and resort planned for the island(tom sawyer's)as soon as Fantasmic closes down. <br />Thanks for posting.Alonzo P Hawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529651580262634489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-79973744470231111802015-11-03T01:18:53.976-08:002015-11-03T01:18:53.976-08:00In that second pic, we can see just a smidgen of t...In that second pic, we can see just a smidgen of the land where the DL Railroad tracks used to be located, prior to being bumped out to the north. This would have been only about 6 years later, so I guess that strip of land hadn't completely grown over yet. Perhaps that is where they will be parking the Millennium Falcon? I can hardly wait.TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.com
