...

But the ability to watch the procedures and see the medical facilities, etc. I think was a different angle to the education element that if totally removed (ore at least the ability for guests to view them) will be missed

Every trip we've had over the last several years when we've made the train ride, there have been no procedures going on... But there is ALWAYS someone in the the party that wants to brush the goats....

ETA: I always loved to walk through the buildings anyway, though, even with no vet procedures going on... if there ever is a procedure, I did enjoy watching and listening to the vet

That is awesome. Glad they are expanding. Any links to new itineraries for those of us at work or too lazy to Google it ourselves?

That's exciting - I know a lot of people have been looking for them to do Hawaii again

also a very different looking logo - more fanciful, so I wonder if the scenes chosen will also be more fanciful / less realistic

...hmmm, maybe "less realistic" will make the bending Eiffel Tower work better

In Shanghai, the pre-show is more fanciful. Of course we couldn’t understand what was being said, but it seemed more like we were going to be flying on a magic carpet. The host(was) was dressed like a fortune teller or a middle eastern sorcerer. She was obviously magical.

Even though we couldn’t understand it, my DH and boys liked the backstory, if you will, better and thought it fit more with the film than the airplane theme, even though we LOVE Patrick Warburton.

Watching the DCL announcement livestream right now and it's actually kind of cute. They confirmed NOLA as a port.

I keep trying to get to the dcl main site and keep getting the dwarves. Work blocked me from all things Disney fir some odd reason. Like that deters me from Disney during the day.

With watching the announcement, I don't know if they will be sailing from Hawaii. I'm guessing they will do two 14-15 day cruises to Hawaii from San Diego. That's what most cruise lines do, and I think that's what they did 5 years ago. I can be wrong though.

I'll be honest...I was expecting something bigger than sailing from New Orleans. I did like the production though.

I agree with you about Hawaii. Because of how the ships are registered they have to stop at a port outside the United States on every sailing that has US ports.

Well poo.

Correct. Most cruises will stop at Ensenada on the way back. I think there is only one ship that sails specific Hawaii cruises, and that is a Norwegian Cruise Line ship.

Yes and that ship is registered in the US.

Love the pick of N'awlins (and not just because I'm a Saints fan). The river-walk is nice and the French Quarter is a definite draw.

So the article says in 2020 but on down it says it is having a 14 day Panama canal in February 2019. Just so happens that 2020 is our 35th and we are looking for a magical trip. Wondering (no pun intended) if that Panama Canal trip is 2020 too?
