Post by: Kristof on December 01, 2009, 02:39:56 AM
Here's some news to report from our Christmas trip past weekend!

Disneyland Park

Not much to report, biggest news is obviously the Christmas season but this will get its own album on Photos Magiques.com

Christmas popcorn

One of the popcorn carts on Central Plaza was selling (on Saturday only) white and red popcorn.

It's Dance Time in Discoveryland no more

The colored spots on the Discoveryland floor for the short run Stitch dance show are in the progress being removed.  All spots near Star Traders are gone.

Disney Blockbuster Café

Something extraordinary happened at Blockbuster Café on Saturday around 2 pm.  The place was packed with people waiting in the aisles for a seat.

I love all the Alice In Wonderland posters! So looking forward to that movie :)
The christmas popcorn doesn't look very tasteful to me by the way.

Blockbuster Cafe was packed all day during last weekend. I was there too. Nonetheless, with so many tables available in 3 rooms, you don't have to wait too long for a table to become available. At least, that was my experience. We sat in the HSM room the first day and in the Pirates room the second day where Jack Sparrow makes regular visits. I like this counterservice restaurant better then before and the 'flow' is good, unlike the Restaurant en Coulisse in Studio 1, which is a cue nightmare no matter what time you go.

Thanks for your report Kristof, it's much appreciated :)

I'm so glad that they aren't waiting around before getting rid of the Dance time stuff in Discoveryland, hopefully it'll be gone soon :wink: . I also love the new posters that have been put up (although I can live with out the ones for Disney XD), I didn't even think about them doing that :) . And Blockbuster Cafe... Busy!?! :shock:

Thanks for the report Kristof! Nice to see Discoveryland returning to how it should be. If I was there I would've ripped up a few of those spots myself. :lol:

Quote from: "The Butlin Boy"And Blockbuster Cafe... Busy!?! :shock:
I'm sure it wasn't the theme that made so many people go in there........... Christmas period + extremely busy weekends + freezing cold weather = hundreds of guests squeezing into any indoor space for warmth!! :lol:

Thanks for the update Kristof :)

Nice to see the park selling festive popcorn, is it just a food colouring or are the red bits flavoured with anything?
