News Round Up 2017

Yep that's pretty much it. Everyone for the most part agrees it's good and fits AK perfectly but it's not a fireworks show so it doesn't have that bit bright wow factor. There are other ways to do that so hopefully in the future they will.

Yep, same here.

Disneyland has filed a permit to build an elevator for the area above city hall and Walt's apartment.

That's promising. I wonder if they might put it back in the walking with walt tour.

I'd doubt it, since I heard from a very reliable source that handicapped access we'd not the reason for removing it from the tour.... Yet I can't really think of any other reason why they'd go to the trouble of of installing the elevator otherwise.

Why did they stop it then? I understand if you can't say but other than ADA compliance I can't think of much else.

My first thought was that they want to increase accessibility for the new $15K dinner being offered in that area. I'm fuzzy on the details of that event though. Is that space even on the upper level?

I believe the $15k dinner is actually near Club 33, above Pirates of the Caribbean in New Orleans Square. That space was also originally supposed be living areas for the Disney family but I don't believe it was ever used for that purpose.

Yes its part of the Disneyland Dream suite. The suite is still there, this dining space is just connected to it.

We were in DL many many years ago (before CA!) and for some reason, they had that room open for peeking inside - just the entry, there was a rope across the doorway to the dining area... I have no idea why, but people were just milling around looking at the decorations. If I remember rightly, it was a pretty small room, and didn't take much to feel crowded. Of course, we had no idea that it was an exclusive (correction, VERY exclusive) "members only" club, so we walked in, looked around a bit, and left. I wish now I would have paid more attention!

EDITED TO ADD: This was probably back in the late 80's so much has changed since then!!
