Great photos, great observations!

Quote from: "Kristof"
Now that's a rather nice sign! Which makes it all the more annoying they didn't read it back and see "Disney Store & Co." Did they get Google to translate from the french "Disney & Co. boutique"?

Sorry, no love here...
Haven't you emailed Peggie yet? ;)

Note the ladder has been removed from the army tower.
Oh god! And it was raised at least 2 metres off the ground!

Quote from: "Kristof"Mind the guests!

I couldn't help capture this guest behaviour on photo.

Where's guest flow?
I don't know how DLP compares to other resorts on this, but it does seem to lack general guest flow CMs around the park (particularly Central Plaza) to stop things like this happening. We'd better not complain too loudly though, or else guest safety will install a 6ft fence around the moat...

Thank you for the updates and photos!

Looks like they're doing a lot of work at the moment .. all at the same time

Is this all for the 20th birthday or just because they feel they need to do it?

Sure it will all look amazing when its all finished tho!

Very informative report, thank you.

I can't believe how good the castle looks, it still takes my breath away everytime I see it.

However, there is so much scaffolding in the rest of the park it must take away some of the atmosphere. I know it needs to be done and the park will look good when it's finished but really it is too much in one go. The Park should never have been allowed to get this bad, I hope DLP realise this and plan on rolling maintenance for the future.

Great News Report Update Kristof..  :thumbs:

Love the look of the Castle with a fresh lick of paint, it just goes to show what people have been missing to see it back to it's original glory..  :D

There does seem to be a lot of refurbs at present in and around the resort, but in my opinion all will be worth while in the end..  ;)

Thank you for the great photos.  :D  I really enjoyed your report.

I'm looking forward to see the castle, but I'm a bit sad that there's so much scaffolding. We booked this year because of the Pirate and Princess Party, but now that it's cancelled I wish we had waited to go until next year. Hmm, now we just have to go next year too.   ;)  :thumbs:

The scaffolding should be gone by the time you go, because... well... it's already gone! :D
