A Brit's Guide to Disneyland Resort Paris 2004

[dlpSteve]

Less than a month until this is released, according to Amazon.co.uk anyway ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0572029497/ref=sr_aps_books_1_1/202-0558320-3831061 ) - wahooo!

Is everything on schedule Simon? Is there much different to last year's edition?

I'd recommend this book as a must for anyone visiting DLRP - I have all the different guide books available on Amazon and this one surpasses the lot.

Let's hope it's all going okay

I think I'll leave getting it from Amazon and get it from the bookstore when it comes out, last time I pre-ordered a Brit's Guide Amazon totally muddled up the date and I know of some people who didn't get it dispatched for 5 weeks after the release date!

Ahhh...don't tell me that! We leave on March 12th, and can't buy the book at US bookstores.

Simon, is the 2004 edition of your book available yet? We leave for DLP on March 12 and I need it before then!!!!!

The last I heard, the book was due in at the distributor's last month and should be on its way to the bookshops now (or even there by now, I would hope!). I must admit, I haven't actually seen a copy myself yet, which suggests it is still sitting in the warehouse ( ) but it should be there pretty soon. There isn't huge amounts that is new from the first edition, but it does add more detail about King Ludwig's, the Walt Disney Studios and some of the non-Disney hotels, plus up-date all the tour operators. As regular DLP-goers will know, there wasn't a whole lot of new development at the resort last year (they're still trying to pay off their on-going debts ) and there was nothing new slated for 2004 (apart from the Manchester United soccer school), so people won't see big changes this time. But for anyone going this year, the new edition will certainly be more up-to-date than the original!

Being housebound with a nasty cold I couldn't resist the temptation to get the new edition so the wife bought it this morning and I'll have it in my hands tonight.

It's always a good read and now I can play 'spot the updates' which will be much fun

If you see any, let me know and I'll berate the publisher for letting them slip through
