Carsland is indeed impressive looking. And you have to love the massive amount of information from Disney.

So "Mad T Party" basically consists of $12 drinks, a crapload of neon, a ridiculous looking DJ, and Skee-Ball?

At least Cars Land continues to look amazing.

^Mad T Party would have been much more interesting had they themed it to Breaking Bad...

FIXED!

That it does! The themeing appears to be so immersive. Though most of the pics we've seen appear to have been taken with a "fish-eye" or "panoramic" lens. I'm really hoping that my AP gets picked for the preview on June 11 (we find out June 4), otherwise it may be some time before I actually tackle the crowds this will produce. Though I will probably head down there after work on the 15th, just to have a glass of wine or two at the winery to watch all the stupidity. (I'm actually assuming at this time, that the park will be closed to reaching capacity limits by the time I would get there - about 7pm.)

For the record - I did like the 2 "Cars" movies. However, I'm really not interested in the two "C" ticket attractions. But, I'm really hoping to like RSR. I'm pretty sure it won't be as cool or as loud as Journey, or as fun as Test Track (My personal favorite Disney ride), but, I am wanting to like it.

(BTW- Mad (shi)T-Party can be tossed and forgotten as far as I'm concerned. It's truly an eyesore during the day, and at night - it's a conglomerate clusterphuck of epic stupidity! AND, because it is mostly locals that attend, I also predict it will start to die off, after people's AP's start to expire, and the peeps can't afford the new prices.)

We love all the neon signs and the retro restaurants in Cars Land. And wait ‘til you taste the fun and unique meals, snacks and drinks at each of five roadside “wig-wams” in Cars Land. Welcome to Cozy Cone Motel!

Cone #1: Churro bites with cinnamon-chocolate sauce, regular or cinnamon-spiced hot cocoa, and Ramone’s Pear of Dice Soda (desert pear and mojito flavorings topped with Sprite).

Cone #2: Soft-serve ice cream and “route” beer floats.

Cone #3: Breakfast features the bacon scrambled egg cone and scrambled egg verde cone. Lunch and dinner is chili “cone” queso and a chicken verde cone. Sip one of Filmore’s Fuelin’ Groovy Ades (all-natural lemonade with wild berry foam, or pomegranate limeade with lemon-lime foam).

Cone #4: Pretzel bites with cheesy sauce. To drink, Red’s Apple Freeze (100% frozen apple juice with Red’s special flavoring topped with a hint of toasted marshmallow flavor, and passion fruit-mango foam)

Cone #5: With two flavored popcorns daily, you might find salt and vinegar, pickle, bacon and cheddar, sweet and spicy or nacho cheese. Also serving Doc’s Wild Grape Tonic (Sprite with wild grape syrup and wild berry foam).

All those donations just added a few million dollars in profits to Disney's bottom line. Smart thinking on someones part. Tax write offs!

[TruesCan I park my donkey here?]

Did somebody say Bacon Popcorn?!

[MechanicCan you see the donkey in my toast?]

The additions to the park, other than the Mad T party, look absolutely stunning. I can't wait to have the chance to check this out some time in late summer or early fall.

On another note, I heard on the radio this morning about the CALIFORNIA letters coming to Cal Expo. I guess it's a fitting enough place for them to end up and I'm glad I'll be able to see them again.

I'm glad to hear the letters have finally found a new home. The California State Fair is loads of fun, and this just might give me a bit of extra motivation to stop by there again someday.

Uh uh.

Bacon and cheddar popcorn.

Still sounds crazy.

But then - I've had flavoured popcorns
at Tokyo Disney Resort, lol.
