I was wondering if any members had any photo's or weblinks that shows the actual land where the DLRP's Magic Kingdom and Hotels were built on. :?:
It's just I'm trying to build a picture of the land as it was just before Euro Disney SCA bought it, just before the start of the development. It's a shame they don't done archive files on Google Earth.. :wink: :)
I don't have any, but would imagine there aren't many, as the one I saw (with imagineers looking round and inspecting) was very non discript flat farm type land. Nothing at all that stood out to make you realize they were anywhere but a random field.
Mmmm, such a shame.. :roll:
The Disney Magazine once featured a nice photo of Mickey and Minnie walking through the muddy landscape long before construction began. I'll have a look for it.

Awwwh, that would be great if you can find it Kristof.. :D/ :D/ :D/
Thanks.. :wink: :D
I HAVE SEEN IT BEFORE !ON A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE !
It's just a big island with a little river going around it .
Its on a video called '15 Ans of Disneyland Paris ' or something like that .
Am I right in saying that some of the trees at the back of Frontierland were already there before the park was built? I'm sure I've heard it somewhere. :-"

You would have loved the old Donald Duck parade that they had years and years ago; it was literally Donald walking the parade route, followed by hundreds and hundreds of real ducks and a soundtrack of quacks :P

I just said something very silly. You see, I made that last post without watching the video. I thought Javey was talking about another shot that is often used by the resort, but in fact, he was talking about the parade itself :oops:
My bad guys, it's getting late :roll: :lol:
Don't worry BB, I'd still have been estatic.. :mrgreen:

Errrrm, I dont think so.. :mrgreen: :^o :^o
I don't have an idol because i want to be myself x
Wow the video was so breathtaking!
but i missed some events, like the Disney's worldparade for instance (or how it was called). Maybe you remember it. It was in 2000 i think and there were huge wagons, each with mickey or donald disguised as one continent :)
