Duffy the Disney Bear Adventures: Another lovely day at Disney World

 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014191_zpse426b5a4.jpg
Getting to the park when it opens is fun, we get to do so much. Look at me driving a Main street vehicle. Out of the way, Duffy coming through.
Did everyone have fun looking at Fluffy's pictures from the Flower and Garden show? I wish I could have come but mom had her hands full with Fluffy. Plus it is nice of me to let the other duffys have a fun day out too. I can rest easy knowing that I am mom's favorite after all......XD So Saturday was at Epcot while Sunday was at Magic Kingdom. Mom says this was the busiest she ever saw the park. XO Good thing we got there early to have lots of fun.

We started the day off differently. After riding It's a Small World we rode the Haunted Mansion. XD So early people are stopping to get coffee.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014196_zps064f6821.jpg
Lets find lots of treasure mom so we can just live at Disney forever. We can go back to the house and get Kira too if you want.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014202_zpsdb226d2c.jpg
It was very busy today at the park. It was Spring Break weekend, the park was scheduled to be open til 2 am, and people were everywhere. But we still did 17 rides/shows today. Mom and dad are really good at planning...or lucky.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014210_zps2a2bf0f6.jpg
The longest wait we had all day was for Be Our Guest restaurant. Mom had had a rough week so Dad was trying to cheer her up. I think it worked. She loves this place.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014211_zps8810184b.jpg
The line was so long because people were fast passing their way into the place. X___X You can do that?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014214_zpsc7ae78fe.jpg
While Dad waited in line mom and I went to look at the Seven Dwarf's Mine Ride Coaster thingy....thing. The name is long. As is the time it is taking to make said ride.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014218_zps05f8c44c.jpg
But maybe we can ride it soon? Maybe?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014225_zps4b7f3b24.jpg
Halfway there!
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014226_zps4a455664.jpg
Standing still all day must be hard work.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014228_zpsa35a4e41.jpg
Belle's cottage. Or her old cottage. Does her dad still live there?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014234_zpsda263320.jpg
Almost there!!!!! So hungry.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014245_zps08e2c1f6.jpg
Mom picked to eat in the room with the jewelry box this time. So now we have eaten in all three rooms.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014246_zps9a50c353.jpg
I think this room. Very quiet. And the tapestries on the wall are nice.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014247_zps731613f1.jpg
I look slightly tiny here....
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014252_zps57a15e4b.jpg
Mom got a different dessert tonight. She said it was very yummy.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014259_zps0990bb8c.jpg
The little kid angels on the ceiling are a bit creepy though.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014261_zpsfb17dd5d.jpg
So bright and sparkly, can we buy one for our house?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014263_zps3024a198.jpg
I want to eat here again....
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014368_zps41714121.jpg
Mom was helpful to a cast member so she and dad were given this. XO And since it was so busy at the park today this really helped out. We used it on the Jungle Cruise.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014370_zps000aeb72.jpg
We watched the brand new parade. It was very nice but there was no time for pics of me and the parade. Maybe next time. After that we went to Big Thunder Mountain. Very fast that ride. We saw Tom Sawyer's island from the ride so we decided to explore.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014372_zps12f6372c.jpg
Mom called the island Exercise by Disney. Also she almost died on the barrel bridge.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014376_zpsa29d4673.jpg
I found the treasure!!!! Go me. I like doing new things. After a few more rides it was time to go home. The park was going to be opened til 2 am but Dad had to work the next day. We can't have dad tired on the road. But we had a great time today. Lots of ride and yummy food. Can't wait to go back in May to have more fun!

Duffy the Disney Bear Adventure: Fluffy at the Flower and Garden Festival

 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014002_zpse2057905.jpg
The real Soarin was the flying we did to get from the beginning of the park to the ride. X___X
Hello there everyone! It's me...Fluffy! Yeah not Duffy but Fluffy. I am a duffy from the Flower and Garden festival last year. Mom has had a rough week but thankfully she and dad were still able to go away to their planned Disney trip. Sometimes you need a little fun to keep your mind of the sad. :( Can't have mom be sad all the time. So while mom rests and tries to catch up on anime posts I thought I share some photos of me and Duffy last weekend. I am up first as we went to the Flower and Garden festival first. I had such a great time. Especially since it didn't rain! Have fun looking at the pictures.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014003_zps8b080573.jpg
After flying in the sky we took a deep in the big blue sea. Where is Nemo?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014012_zps07296959.jpg
After riding some rides we went back to the front of the park to take pictures of flowers. The reason why we came to the park today.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014021_zpsdf5a3e46.jpg
Tinkerbell gave Epcot some pixie dust and brought lots of butterflies to the park.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014031_zps08ba7f01.jpg
We shall find them all.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014052_zps7a5cf855.jpg
When the park first opened everyone ran to Test Track, Soarin, or to wait in line for Anna and Elsa. So we got to take our time around look at the flowers.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014055_zps542d2caf.jpg
Did Mater turn into Wall-e? Making things out of junk?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014056_zpsfe725916.jpg
I am under 12, can I play in the center?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014058_zpsda678aea.jpg
Mater looks really rusty.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014059_zpsc866a163.jpg
Lightening McQueen is driving off the road.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014085_zps5709135d.jpg
Since we woke up early we all ate lunch early. Plus we had to wait for our Fast Passes for Test Track. That Mac and Cheese is very...soupy.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014089_zps9867de7e.jpg
It's too early for breaks, we need to keep exploring.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014092_zpsf84154fb.jpg
Something very big was here.....
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014099_zps5072a02f.jpg
Finally time for our Test Track Fast Pass. The line was out the door for the other people.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014134_zpsfd82d871.jpg
We walked around the whole world! Well all of Epcot. We stopped at France to get a snack. This looks yummy doesn't it?
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014162_zps71301d02.jpg
After we saw all the flowers we went to Hollywood Studios for a little fun. Mom and Dad wanted to sketch a Disney character so we waited in line.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014183_zpsb65b713f.jpg
Mom and Dad were taught how to draw Jimmy Cricket. I think they did okay for their first time.
 photo FlowerFestivalDisney2014188_zps0b11c45d.jpg
We ended the night riding Toy Story Mania. Mom says that ride makes her arm tired. We had a fun day but I wonder how Duffy does this all the time. Going to theme parks is hard work.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled anime post to bring you this breaking news: DISNEY!

 photo Duffy023_zpsc2705881.jpg
Being in this room is like being at an anime convention! But why am I in a suitcase?
Today (well technically yesterday but you know me) was Mother's Day. And since me and the momager haven't had a decent...civil....well ANY type of conversation in the last year or so....my day was spent doing other things. Watching an anime episode, partially blogging it, and then going out to spend some time with the husband. Mainly having him take me out shopping and what not. XD Little did I know an off the cuff sentence would have my husband spilling the beans on what he gotten me for our anniversary and I would spend the rest of the night going BAWWW and looking things up.
 photo Duffy026_zpsdecdc4fe.jpg
Meh means yes right?
Our 7th wedding anniversary is next week and I suggested a bit back that we should take advantage of the current deal offered to Florida residents by Disney. 4 days for $129 dollars or 3 days for $119. Or maybe even less and see what Sea World had to offer with the penguins since we get a free pass to that park or Busch Gardens since the husband is in the military. I asked the husband what he wanted to do and he was like meh. A few days later he came back and said everything was set and not to worry about anything. I asked what was up and I got no answer, only that I would open one present before our actual anniversary.
 photo Duffy019_zps707d2783.jpg
This bear officially has more shoes that I do.
So today I didn't want to spend all day at the house and have a pity party for my inability to "celebrate" this day properly. I was like husband I think you are taking me to Disney, we must make haste to the outlet store and buy some pins. Also Duffy needs a black pair of shoes so to the mall. Since I am the most spoiled person on the face of the planet off we went. There were NEW shoes for Duffy, not the black ones I had in mind and the husband bought me more pins after I had already made my purchases.
 photo disney2_zps67158284.jpg
XO My main Duffy has never been to any Disney park!
At the Disney Store there was a super cute child's size Cars suitcase. Small enough to be dragged around at a theme park but big enough to have tons of Duffy outfits and accessories in it. We won't talk about how....special it is to buy a suitcase for a stuffed animal. Embrace my insanity. I put Duffy in the suitcase and wheeled him around the store wondering if I really could buy this and what not. I decided that no, I would really only use this suitcase on days if I was taking tons of pictures at Disney and not riding many rides. And that would mean I would need an annual pass. Since we are saving for Japan that was a no go this year so I put the suitcase back. Then the husband put the suitcase back in my hand and said that his present to me this year was an annual pass to Disney and that is why I was supposed to open it before we left for Orlando, so I could pack all the Duffy stuff I needed.
 photo disney_zps2f10d528.jpg
Can't wait to get my real card. XD One week to go!
BAWWWW! BAWWWW folks! The girls at the Disney Store called him a Prince, Duffy got his suitcase, and I spent the rest of the evening trying to write about dead Titans in between listing all the fun things we could do this year. My husband in the past has spent a lot of money on gas going to and from work. But in the past month or two he has formed a car pool with people who now live in our area and has apparently saved a ton, enough for annual pass payments and hotel stays every once in a while. So Japan will not be affected and I can spend this next year having a blast at Disney. To fill the void between me and Japan and have a lot to look forward to when work gets tough. XD So....in conclusion I am a crazy girl with a suitcase for a stuffed animals and super spoiled, thus your anime post didn't get posted today. XD Sorries.

If I had a theme park.....

It seems as if lately all I talk about or think about are theme parks. Have I gone theme park crazy? Should I give up my amazing job at the worse pizza place ever to move to Orlando and be closer to the fun? No then I would have to work twice as hard to have adventures. Better stay out....
 photo tenchithemepark25_zps4eaa38d3.jpg
All board to Tenchi's park of stolen ideas and lands!
However on a recent trip home from Orlando I was either on a sugar high or lost my mind. Probably a bit of both. But we (my friends and the husband) started listing things we like and dislike about theme parks and we had a brilliant idea. I would start my own theme park. And we shall call it Tenchi's Copyrightwhat? World!!!!! Start saving your pennies ya'll! (note all of these pictures were also stolen from the internets. I mean....borrowed. I mean...all I have is Duffy clothes and Hello Kitty stuffed animals to my name. None of these pics are mine!! XD )
 photo tenchithemepark3_zpsfa43ee6a.jpg
Come spend money in my park!
As the name suggests I am not creating really anything new. Well except for one thing that will basically replace EVC's but other than that...steal steal steal. I mean....borrow! See instead of winning 54 million dollars like my crazy dream post I will apparently have WAY more more money. Like oh you gonna sue me for copyright infringement? How nice. Get in line. Let the fun begin!!!
 photo tenchithemepark2_zps842aca6f.jpg
We are going to need a giant parking garage....
To start off with my amusement/theme park is going to be 15 miles total. Apparently that is a lot because everyone in the car started laughing. Goobers. Why have different parks within driving distance if I can just make one huge park? No park hoppers tickets here. People will really need to buy multiple day tickets though. Don't worry about people passing out from all that walking though. We got that covered.
 photo tenchithemepark7_zpsb7eceeee.jpg
How ugly is this?!
People can take different modes of transportation around the park. I will not be renting out huge strollers or wheelchairs. I got along just fine on a folding stroller thank you. I am not trying to be a hater on people with kids or those who NEED wheelchairs. But if you need those things wouldn't you already bring them? Wait...if I want only folded strollers maybe I would give those out to people if they bring their giant ones. But I don't want to be accused of discrimination if kids have disabilities and what not. HMMMMM.
 photo tenchithemepark11_zps457c844f.jpg
Like this but smaller.
But one idea I am bringing to my park is called the Inch N Go. What is an Inch N Go? It is going to be …..a little car if you would. Way smaller than a golf cart but operates the same. It would like similar to the trams or min trains you see in the malls but way smaller. Big enough for one person but room to connect another car or two for family members. People might think this would take up a lot of space but wheelchairs, strollers, and EVC's are pretty big, bigger than what I have in mind. These would be more like mini golf carts but would go much slower. Thus the inch part. XD You can get one with a topper on it or ride with it down, so you can see the nice areas around you. Really it could be a ride in itself, pretending to be on a train the entire time you are in the park. Now I would store these Inch N Gos underground, like how the Japanese store their bikes. No stroller city in my park. Just take your stuff and turn your Inch N Go in when you get to a ride/land you want to be in for a while. Simple as pie yes?
 photo tenchithemepark8_zpsac0b07ab.jpg
MUCH BETTER!
So besides this wonderful Inch N Go technology there will be mini trains connecting lands. As my theme park is 15 miles large I sense that people might pass out before enjoying my park and spending loads of money. So I plan to set up my park similar to the Magic Kingdom. Have a main street with quaint little shops that connect to the main hub. The hub will connect to some lands. But at the entrance of each connecting land will be a long people mover. Behind each land will be another land. So instead of walking through an entire land you can hop on this mini ride and save some walking. There will also be a train that circles the complete outside of the park similar again to the Magic Kingdom but with way more stops obviously. I want my theme park to be a one stop destination but not somewhere that people dread because of the walking.
 photo tenchithemepark9_zpsf1ad1030.jpg
Where is your messenger bag?!
Speaking of hub...what is my theme park's icon? This was much talked about but I think we decided on Stitch. A huge statue of Stitch with a messenger bag. He will be holding Duffy and wearing Mickey ears. In his bag will be other iconic things found in my park, like It's So Fluffy, Hello Kitty, ect. I wanted to do with a castle with a walk through but this seemed to speak my message. That being everything goes!
 photo tenchithemepark10_zps235a0847.jpg
Spend the night here and hop on the boat in the morning to get to the park.
I keep saying lands but what do I mean by that? We are going to have the shopping area outside. Like a Citywalk or Downtown Disney. That will be on one side. Surrounding the theme park will be a lake type structure that can carry guests from their hotels. All the major hotels will surround the park in a circle and you can get ferried from your hotel. I was going to have multiple fronts gates. Maybe I will but there will definitely be multiple exists. Can't have herds crushing people you know?
 photo tenchithemepark14_zps4b1d6075.jpg
Just look cute. But will have INTERESTING SHOPS, not random stuff shoved in it.
After parking in my giant lot and being transported via People Mover to the ticket gate you can stop and have your pics taken with some characters. The ones representing the major lands. Then you cross the threshold to Main Street. I don't want any statues of me so...I guess Main Street will look slightly different. I do like the old timey feel though. Might be weird since this a theme park of stolen ideas everywhere, not just the United States. But I want to have a jumbo shop with a select few items from each land. Not everything because hello that is dumb. Then fun shops like a bakery, candy making, ice cream parlor, movie theater, magic show, museum, ect. All that fun stuff on one street!
 photo tenchithemepark16_zps30306923.jpg
Of course I was stealing this...
The list of lands Tenchi is stealing/creating!!!!
 photo tenchithemepark15_zps41a5b19f.jpg
I am going to steal something I have not seen the inside of yet. XD
Fantasyland- Bigger and better! More rides, one for each main Princess. A castle with different wings for meet and greets. I would keep the new Beauty and the Beast Restaurant and seal the Queen of Hearts one from Tokyo Disney. Fantasyland will be for the Princesses and popular Disney movies that fit the theme. I would lose the carousel and move Pooh to another land. Plenty of street performances and random moments of fun. Lots of detail and eye candy for those who don't really love Princesses. Like maybe an enchanted garden or a place for majestic looking creatures, ponies and peacocks and what not. Also I am going to try and break the gender gap here and have all the Princes walking around. Maybe have some sword “training” with some of the Princes or having them talk about their adventures at the local watering hole.
 photo tenchithemepark17_zpsfda4443a.jpg
MUST STEAL! Awesome ride!
Mickey's Toontown- Where Mickey lives duh. I don't think I would involve Roger Rabbit though. Instead Pooh and other like characters would go here. Each main Disney character would get their own interactive house along with a meet and greet. The main restaurant would have Mickey shaped everything including food. The Winnie the Pooh ride from Japan would be the main event here as well as the dark ride based on Philarmagic. You can watch the show and then opt to go on the ride afterward. But it wouldn't be as slow as other dark rides. More like when Donald is flying across worlds type feel. And for a little shout out Donald will end up in the Kingdom Hearts universe. Add in the Jr. Casey play-land area and a Chip and Dale 3-D simulator like the Simpsons and we have a land WOOHOO!
 photo tenchithemepark21_zpsa3e98b59.jpg
Mountain Rides weeee!
Mountain Terrain- Instead of having Adventure Land and Liberty Square and whatever else land I will just have all the mountain rides in one place including the Everest One. The surrounding areas will be themed to match their mountains. Like all the little critters from Splash Mountain will host a song a long outside and a shooting range outside Thunder Mountain. The two main restaurants will be Yeti Avalanche and Mars Diner. Space Mountain will be rethemed for Mars so it can match the other lands like mountains. I am just not a fan of how Space Mountain looks. We could retheme it to look more like a colony base yes? We can sell safari gear and cool themed backpacks.
 photo tenchithemepark24_zpsaecce597.jpg
Must have a restaurant for this.
PixarLand- This land might look like the most messed up now that I think about it. But some of those movies are so random where else could they go? I would definitely steal the Buzz Lightyear ride. I would combine the Laugh Factory to exit into the Monster's Inc ride in Japan. The People Mover would be based on Wall-E. The main restaurant will be based on Up, floating in the sky. Definitely would bring over the new Cars racing ride and have a Cozy Cone restaurant. The meet and greet would be Andy's room with movie posters based on what characters is present at the time. The carts would sell those Wall-E slushies but in good flavors. But where will Stitch live...? Still I know this will looked a bit messed up in terms of theme. Big and bright, full of crazy.
 photo tenchithemepark13_zps6510de0e.jpg
So magical for my wallet.
Sanrio Land- This was a must have on my list of stolen ideas. I love my Hello Kitty ya'll and most of her friends. But since I am not a hater I have to include them all yes? Hello Kitty will be the star and have a giant meet and greet. There you can choose your own mood and meet the Hello Kitty of your choice. Punk, Alice in Wonderland, Classic, ect. That way each experience is different. I LOVE Cinnamoroll. He would have the main restaurant in this land. So many yummy things to eat. I failed to mention before but I would try to include collectables at some of the restaurants. Like buy a dessert and get to keep the cup. Obviously the price would reflect if you are getting the cup or throw away item. I think in some lands this will work better than others. I think this land can have a few more kiddie rides than the others but I would try to include Badtz Maru and others to make it more for the whole family. Maybe a shooting game for him. Definitely will have a show area here with fun for the whole family. Dance Kitty dance!
 photo tenchithemepark12_zpsbe464dff.jpg
Legos...that is your job husband.
LegoLand- The husband's only real contribution to the conversation besides no stroller Wednesdays and I hate popcorn. Yes the husband hates popcorn and since the rest of the park will have lovely flavors from all over at various locations (stolen from Tokyo Disney) he will install huge fans that blow the smell back into the other part of the parks. My husband wanted more adult rides at this part of the park verses the one in Orlando. We would still have rides of kids but more....roller coaster like rides he said. I want all the food to be lego shaped. XD And the cups too. He wanted to make special sets that you can only get at this park and have special activities for VIP members. A huge Lego castle with the history of legos and past sets are a must. There would be mini fig trading and places to watch the lego mini movies. Oh and of course we need to have the land with all the famous world attraction in mini lego form. Only maybe with a canopy over the area. XD
 photo tenchithemepark22_zpsaba3e343.jpg
And that's what Christmas is all about Charlie Brown.
Snoopy Land- My friend loves Snoopy and she said she wanted to make this part of the park. She can run it I guess. XD Snoopy is cute but I am not well versed in all that is Snoopy. We would have to have a year round theater performance of A Charlie Brown's Christmas complete with the little sad tree. Maybe this can be a little sub land in an area with other old cartoons. XD Does that make sense, like at Islands of Adventure?
 photo tenchithemepark4_zpsa6f30d9a.jpg
Must make this mountain too!
Seuss Landing- I really love this area at Islands of Adventure but I think it can be more. Bigger and better. Dr. Seuss should be larger than life. I want a real Mt. Crumpit...but then I would have to put it in the Terrain Land. I guess I will have to figure that out. Obviously we would have a Grinchmas show and what not at Christmas time. I like the trolley ride but would make it go through more rides. I would make it look more like Fantasyland than a carnival. Instead of having a Cat in the Hat ride I would have one huge building that you can pick your own Seuss adventure. Like I want to read One Fish, Two Fish and POOF there you go. Surely this large book will be the centerpiece of the land.
 photo tenchithemepark23_zpsa7d6d89e.jpg
On a bigger scale of course.
Everything Goes Japan Land- Because I said so! We will have sushi bars and candy making demonstrations and the cool drums. Places where you can sit back and enjoy the view, as fake as it is. XD This would be the area of the park where you can find the exclusive Duffy! I love Duffy and Shellie May and will bring real quality clothes and merchandise to the states. On Main Street we will have a huge Build a Bear shop that will have many types of plushies to make, representing all the park but Duffy will only be found here. I will have nendoroid trading and host mini anime conventions. I was thinking about making this area of the park on the outside so if people wanted to only attend to anime convention won't have to pay the full admission price. There will be replicas of famous Japanese spots and there will be a garden for those who want to have a Japanese style wedding. Maybe on this this side of the park the hotel beyond the cake will be capsules. XD
 photo tenchithemepark5_zps8c10829b.jpg
Villain make overs!
Villain Lair- I think that villains are a very important part of every Disney film. Without them where would the movie go? So I think they need their own section of the park...if only to make more money off awesome merchandise. No seriously I think that this would be an awesome dark area of the park. Spookier versions of dark rides, What Ifs versions of the movies where the villains win, and spooky food. Tons of character meet and greets all year round and not only at Halloween Time. This land would house the ever popular Tower of Terror, themed to different Disney movies depending on the rotation. There are plenty of places to turn kids into pirates or princesses but why not villains too? And why not for adults too? XD Come and be your favorite villain. I want a large stage show that basically have the villains acting like the villains in Shrek, talking about how they were wronged and misunderstood. Small touches would include random animatronic bats that fly from tree to tree when people are walking around the park. Trees will randomly open their eyes and look at people then quickly close them. So spooky. XD
 photo tenchithemepark6_zps4f270c0e.jpg
I hate roller coasters weeee!
Thrill Seeker Island- I think this name needs a little work...obviously. But yes I recognize that some people love roller coasters even though I prefer to stay on the ground. The problem is that I want a theme park, not an amusement park. And roller coasters just don't look...well nice most of the time. Like a giant sheet of metal that bends all over the place. But we need to have some. Sure we will have some scary rides throughout the park but we will have traditional rollar coasters in this area. Like hop on the little people mover and come to this area WAYYYY in the back of the park. But we still need to have some stories behind the rides. I will let my rollar coaster people figure this out. Just....make sure there are plenty of puke buckets. 


Epic Story Land- What exactly is that? Well that will be the place where I stick franchises where I think deserve cool rides after them. Or entire stolen sections of other parks. I will have Harry Potter...but only bigger. XD Lord of the Rings, time to take a huge chunk of land. Really this land will have to be huge as I will have a Star Wars Land over here. Each subland will have a book on a grand scale that you enter through, that a dome will cover that area up so it is not seen from the outside. When you travel to sublands you see pages and filmstrips representing how books and movies can take you away from it all.
 photo tenchithemepark_zps5d11769f.jpg
Every land will need a train of course. XD On the outside.
While all of my lands are going to be totally different I am going to make sure there are some things that are included in each area. I am not in tune with the needs of people with kids but I am assuming a family friendly bathroom would be helpful, for those with kids and those without. A baby care area near the first aid station in each land will also be included but still themed to that particular land. Like maybe a cute little pokemon center in Japan Land or a Dumbo area in Fantasyland. Plenty of custodians and plain clothed security will roam the parks. The cleaner the area and the presence of popo help maintain a positive atmosphere. I will try to make each land their own circle with some sort of icon that people can use as a meeting point. Like if you get lost go to the Mirror Mirror statue to meet up. 

What I will not be including any of my lands are those annoying vacation club/upselling booths. I just hate those. So much pressure and I hate it when people try to sell me something and I have to say no and that might affect their pay. There will be plenty of other jobs for my people to have (IE more custodians) that we won't need that kind of upsells. No cat calling to people from the little tiny booths as you walk...that will be nicely themed, not Henna tattoos and crap. If people want something they will look. Do not scare away my potential customers. 

Each land will have some sort of wonderful daytime entertainment. I really wanted a parade for each land. Would that be overkill though? I mean....when you have one parade for a big park you can avoid it if you want. But a parade might tie up most of a small land you know? Still I think it would be fun and there is certainly enough material for most of my lands...well maybe not the Thrill Seeker Island part. But having live entertainment is very important. Gotta give the people something fun to watch. No one is allowed to wait for the parade 1 hour before the event, people must remove all large hats, no kids on shoulders, and the first few rows MUST sit down. Respect. My park goers will show it or be asked to leave the area.

Fun take home souvenir. Only at Pixar Land.
Each land will have specific area merchandise. Like I said earlier the Emporium on the Main Street area will have bits and pieces from every land but you won't find 10 percent of what you can buy in that store. I mean....that is boring. I want stores to be attractions in themselves. Very well themed. I love taking pictures in stores and I am sure others do to. And if you can find the same stuff in every store why would people bother with even half of the stores? So everything needs very different. If you want that Hello Kitty purse you better pick it up when you are on that side of the park. You want a big box set of Legos. Great you can only find them in the popcorn free sections of the park. Sure this will be super expensive to pull off but apparently I'm the richest person ever.

I don't think I will give out free fastpasses to people who stay at the more expensive hotels. There will be other perks for hotel guests.
I am not sure what I think about Fastpasses. I can see that it is necessary in parks within the realms of reality but my park? With so much to see and do? Will lines be that long? I guess I should prepare to be full all the time. I just hate how ugly some Fast pass machines make the area. They really would have to blend in with the area. Really blend in. And the rules will not be bent. Be back on time or else! 


As for my hotels I will need to have a wide range of places to stay. I want everyone to be on site and not stay at other places. But if all my hotels circle the park they will all be close. Thus why would someone spend more money to be 1,000 feet closer. I don't want to cut back on amenities, even the most basic hotels. I want all the hotels to have sound proof rooms. I am a light sleeper and my park will obviously attract many kids. Everyone needs sleep. But the most basic hotels will be just that. No thrills, a place to lay your head and the free little shampoo bottles. If you got a budget, I will give you just that. The more expensive the hotel the more grand it will be. For some people just see hotels as a place to sleep at night. For others a hotel is part of the vacation fun, with massages and 5 star dining service. There will be NO hotel hopping at my park. You can swim and eat at your own hotel. But if you want the services at the top notch hotel you got to pay the price for a room. Makes sense yes? 

Next to my huge park is going to be another huge plot of land. It will be well hidden behind trees and suchies. This will be my operational area. A place where out of season items are kept, factories making the different themed napkins are made, and where uniforms are pressed and cleaned. Basically whatever I need to run my park will be found here. Daycare for my workers, stockrooms for all the merchandise, and a greenhouse for all the plants that are needed to make things look pretty. Sure this will be expensive but apparently I am Bill Gates! This way I can make everything just how I want it. I won't have to kiss butt to sponsors. The experience is with the details and if I have a large enough area to store tons of stuff I can afford to make all the restaurants and stores have different merchandise.

Time to roll out the seasonal entertainment!
Also with so much space I can really go all out in regards to Seasonal entertainment. That is something that I find lacking in some theme parks. I don't want anyone to ever think my park is boring. I want something new to be happening all the time. Also...it will help sales. XD My annual passholders will probably be more likely to come back and spend more money if I have different and limited time stuff from time to time. Each land will celebrate these different holiday and seasonal events in different ways. Like the Villains Land will have the saddest Christmas ever but the best Halloween. FantasyLand will be so full of color around Easter time. Japan will kick off summer right with all their festivals. And while some lands will be more decorated than others I will make sure there are plenty of nice touches. Not here is a pumpkin, enjoy. 

XO It has taken my quite a while to write all of this!!! Weeks. XD A bit a day. I think I have forgotten a lot of what we talked about as we must have talked the entire 2.5 hours home. I just want to make a park that is perfect for taking tons of pictures, family friendly without ruining my theming, and the ability to kick out bad guests to help everyone else have a good time. A one stop destination that will put everyone out of business while they are suing the crap out of me for copyright infringement. Pay for one park or go to all them as I grow and expand something that doesn't exist. Ah long car rides home. Look what they create!
