Any idea what the construction is around there? Just repairs on IASW or are they building something else there too?

The fire began around 9:20 p.m. on a tree near the "It's a Small World" attraction, said Disney spokeswoman Suzi Brown.

It was extinguished about half an hour later, Brown said.

Officials are still investigating the cause, of the fire, although they suspect it was related to the fireworks show. No one was injured and no damage was done to It’s A Small World, which was briefly closed because of the fire.

Dang fireworks shows - haven't they destroyed enough castles already?!

They are doing a refurb of the facade of It's a Small Ride in prep for the 60th anniversary celebrations in May.

Yeah but look at the forum posts.

The members of that website are off their rocker.

Why do I do this to myself. Every time I see something posted about Disneyland I keep looking at all the photos and get really sad that I can't afford to go back and experience it again. :'(

They lost me after they were adamant the Nemo ride was closing permanently, until it reopened...

Can certainly relate to that. Hoping to take my little dude when he hits 6 or 7 which is the same age I was my first visit

_{Since we weren't going to be able to do everything we wanted to do in North America, or Japan - we snapped up some cheap HK flights so I can take my wife to HKDL for her first time - which will tide us over for our Disney fix until our next big trip comes along...}

While you are there are you going to head to the parks just over the Border?

Happy Valley, Chimelong Paradise, Ocean Kingdom and Knight Valley are all within 100km of HK and acessible via trains or Ferries...Chance to try a Wing Coaster, Dive Coaster, Vekoma Motorbike, S&S air launcher....
