From there we explore the Asian branch of the Disney Worldwide Empire with a look at both Tokyo Disneyland and Hong Kong Disneyland!  But we are far from finished.  Next up is the half zoo, half theme park known as Six Flags Discovery Kingdom near San Francisco. And we finish the world tour in the always lovely Disneyland Paris.  It's quite a journey.  Join us!

Let's face it, you are here because you can't get enough Disney news and rumors.  Luckily, MiceChat's team of reporters have gathered up the very best news, rumors, discussions, and trip reports into one fantastic roundup!  There was one undeniable story this week, as Disney hiked prices significantly in both California and Florida in the middle of the worst economic recession since the Great Depression.  From that heavy topic, we lighten things up with some fantastic video of Disneyland in the 1960's and a video recreation of Big Thunder Mountain's "Goat Trick".   On our Disney World boards, folks are perturbed by changes coming to the already confusing dining plan - what do you think?  And, like candy that you just can't stop eating, we have wonderful trip reports from Disneyland, Disney World, Tokyo Disneyland, Hong Kong, and Disneyland Paris.  All this and dozens of news links, information items, photos reports, armchair Imagineering, and tons of fun.  Jump on in, the Roundup's fun!

Summer is officially in full swing and you can track the progress of Disney's Summer Nightastic and its effect on the parks in various discussions on MiceChat.  Along the way, we'll see how Disneyland's Tomorrowland looks at night with new lighting and mini Forrest, video of the revised Electrical Parade at California Adventure, and one last craptacular look at Walt Disney World's Stitch's SuperSonic Celebration which is thankfully being euthanized.  There is also big news this week with 3 new lands (as well as concept art) being announced for Hong Kong Disneyland, Robama has taken the stage at the Hall of Presidents in a stirring new show, and of course discussion of the flurry of celebrity deaths this week including Michael Jackson.  All this and dozens of other interesting news items and discussions in this week's Round-Up!

Hong Kong Disneyland is set to expand with three new lands wrapped behind the far side of Adventureland.  The new lands will include unique attractions with some familiar influences.  Grizzly Trail will feature a Big Thunder Mountain style roller coaster in a Grizzly Mountain setting, Mystic Point will have a Haunted Mansion style ride with elements and theme similar to the Tower of Terror, and Toy Story Land will be filled with Pixar themed children's attractions.  The expansion addresses the current lack of attractions at Hong Kong Disneyland and resulting poor attendance.  Join us for full descriptions and detailed photos.
