I know I said I'd start in a day or two, but here's the start of Fantasyland. By the way, this area will have both medieval and European theming. This first attraction has the medieval theming.

SNOW WHITE AND HER ADVENTURES

Located right nearby her castle, this ride follows the story of Snow White, with a few new sequences. Several signs throughout the queue warn that the ride has some scary moments. At the boarding area is a forest mural, with the Dwarfs' house and the Queen's castle in the distance. Our vehicle is, as always, a mine cart. These mine carts, however, seat eight (four rows of two). After we board, we turn a corner and see a crow holding a sign that says "Beware", similar to the owl on DL's. We pass through a dark forest with logs that look like crocodiles, trees that seem to have faces, a bats flying all over the place. Soon the forest lights up and we see Snow White, surrounded by her animal companions, singing "With a Smile and a Song". We continue on towards a rocky cave and through doors that say "Dwarfs' Mine". We pass Sleepy, Bashful, and Sneezy mining while singing the first part of "Heigh Ho". We then see Doc and Dopey are at a table. Doc is inspecting diamonds while Dopey puts them in front of his eyes, giving the illusion of many eyes. We turn a corner and a mine cart nearly hits ours. After turning a corner we see some vultures on a branch. We turn another corner and go through some doors into the Queen's throne room. The Queen is facing the mirror, her back towards us.
Queen: Magic Mirror, on the wall...
Some strobe flashes and the Queen turns around, now as the Witch.
Witch: Soon I will be the fairest of all!
As she cackles, we turn and enter the dungeon, a long, twisting corridor filled with skeletons. Another vehicle might be seen The Witch can be heard plotting.
Witch: A special death for one so fair! The Poison Apple! One taste and she'll fall into the Sleeping Death! But wait! There's an antidote! The spell can be broken by Love's First Kiss. No fear of that! The dwarfs will think she's dead! She'll be buried alive!
We now see the witch at a cauldron, cackling and placing the apple into a cauldron. We continue through the dungeon a bit more, giving another chance to see another vehicle, before going out and in front of the Dwarfs' house. The witch is giving the apple to Snow White through the window.
Witch: This is a magic, wishing apple. Take a bite and your dreams will come true.
We leave the scene and head towards a cliff as lightning strikes.
Witch: Now I'm the fairest in the land!
We now are at the foot of the cliff. The dwarfs are here and heading up the cliff.
Bashful: C'mon, men! Don't let her get away.
The witch is now seen at the top of the cliff, trying to push down a large boulder.
Witch: I'll crush their bones!
All of a sudden, lightning strikes and the Witch disappears from view, followed by the boulder. We turn and a chorus-sung version of "Someday My Prince Will Come" starts up. We turn again and see the Prince by Snow White's coffin, giving Love's First Kiss. We go through some doors painted as foliage and pass a giant book depicting Snow White and the Prince riding into the sunset and the dwarfs waving goodbye. We enter the unloading area and exit to the left into Fantasyland.

Well, that's the first part of Fantasyland. I shall continue soon.

I have in mind for a park in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as well, so after I'm done here, I will probably use most, if not all, of my contributions for the Australian park in my South American park, called Disneyland Rio.

Anyway, look for my next thing to happen soon. Though I'm kinda torn between Big Thunder Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean (I had been assigned to doing a pirate-themed subsection of Adventureland). Right now, I'm going to get some shut-eye; doing a verbal tour of a ride isn't as easy as it looks. The Splash Mountain verbal tour took forever, so I'll do more after some sleep.

Oh, and I haven't forgotten Toontown, either.

Okay, I'll be posting a couple new attractions soon, but first I'd like to give an overview of the land itself.

The castle is about 134' tall. The main castle is mostly pink except for some white balcony areas. The turrets are the shapes and sizes of both DL's and WDW's. It's name is Snow White Castle. Inside, "Someday My Prince Will Come" is played. First is a medieval themed area. The Carrousel is in the middle Then a mix between the two, with Storybook Land Canal Boats, Casey Jr., and Splash Mountain to the left. Dumbo is across from Splash. A couple other attractions are off to the right, the Teacups the middle. The back section of the land (closest to Chernabog Square and Toontown) has the European theming. The entrances to CS and TT are to the sides of one attraction.

Nice Snow White ride. And to Big Disney Fan do whatever comes to you first. As for monkey4057 (again) is Fantasyland going to have It's a Small World in it? And to everyone else, my Lewis and Clark Riverboat script will be posted soon.

And please be sure to include the Teacups, too. Now, I'm going to start working on Big Thunder.

Here is the script for the Lewis and Clark Riverboat I promised.


Lewis and Clark Riverboat Script

Lewis: Welcome aboard, this is one of your captains speakin, best you please finish all your food,
beverages, before we set sail. Please watch your step, grab your young children by the hand, firmly
by the hand that is, and come on board. This here is the first boardin call for the steam ship,
Lewis and Clark.

Clark: Secure all cargo, all passengers aboard.

Bowman, cast off bow lines.

Engine room, ahead one quarter.

Engine room, ahead three quarters.

Ledge man, sound off.

Ledge Man Singing: By the mark, Mark one, Mark Twain, Half Twain, Mark three, Mark four, Deep four,
Ocean deep.

Lewis: Howdy folks, welcome aboard the Lewis and Clark Riverboat. This is one of your two captains
speakin to you up here from the pilot house up on the Texas deck. We are now leaving on a daring
journey down the Rivers of the Far West on a perilous voyage into the western frontier. For your
safety, please do not sit on the handrails, the river can get mighty unpredictable in these parts,
and gosh, we sure would hate to lose anyone. Say William, why don't you introduce yourself?

Clark: Sure thing Meriwether. Hello everyone I am William Clark, your other captain. Years ago we
set out on an expedition across the American frontier with the help of our beautiful Indian guide,
Sacagawea. She was a mighty big help and thanks to her, we now know these parts like the back of
our hands.

Lewis: Yes sir those were the golden days, back then we traversed through forests, sailed down
rivers, and climbed mountains of all kinds. But none of us ever dreamed of climbing a mountain like
that one! (To Splash Mountain)

Clark: Chickapin Hill, Meriwether? Are you kidding me?

Lewis: Well no, as a matter of fact, the locals tell me that bizaare mountain has music in it's
caverns, and laughter in it's falls.

Clark: Now Lewis you actually believe in that old legend? I thought you would have known better for
a man of your knowledge.

Ledge Man: Entering the wilderness captains.

Clark: Thank you sir for that warning.

Lewis: Thank you indeed, the wilderness can get very dangerous in these parts.

Clark: Yep that's right, unfriendly Indian tribes, banditos, and lots of savage varmints like bears,
wolves, coyotes, alligators, mountain lions, bobcats, and angry buffalo! And right over there on
the beach is proof, a raided settler's cabin! (We see a cabin with broken windows, a broken horse
stable, a knocked over table, and tons of junk scattered outside the cabin's open door. The settler
lays outside of the house, dead)

Lewis: Blast we were too late to help! Well you're probably wondering who did this huh? Well it was
some banditos, you can tell, look at the size of those bullet holes in the windows.

Clark: Poor soul, they took everything, even his horse, and is he alive?

Lewis: No William, they stole his life to. Well when we return back to safety we can send out a
warning to all other boats in the area. (We pass by some moose swimming in the water, one cocks his
head to look at us as he chews on some grass)

Clark: You know with all these advances in modern technology, I hardly know if there is any of the
wilderness left!

Lewis: Yep now we have the riverboat, like the one you're riding, the steam engine which you can
possibly see among the trees, and the steam drill. Why the distant future of 1986 is almost here!

Clark: Even though 1986 is so far from now, it will be amazing! Why I bet you that man will be able
to fly to the moon in some bizaare contraption! (We pass by some deer frozen in the trees near Big
Thunder Mountain, they watch our boat float by)

Lewis: Ha ha ha, that will never work!

Ledge Man: Big Thunder Island ahead captains.

Lewis: Ah Big Thunder Island, that towering mountain is the biggest gold strike in these parts! But
in spite of its glorious riches, that mine has been riddled with trouble and strange happenings for
as long as I can remember.

Clark: I for one am not at least suprised, this area is the outskirts of a sacred Indian ground.
Although I myself am not prone to superstition, some folks believe that restless spirits have taken
over the mountain itself. (A coyote cocks its head back and howls from a butte of Big Thunder)

Lewis: Ooooh doesn't that howl send shivers down your spine?

Ledge Man: Indian village ahead.

Clark: Oh an Indian village? Are they friendly?

Ledge Man: Looks like it, why as a matter of fact, their chief is waving to us now! (The chief on
his decorated horse waves at us as we pass by a village of teepees, as animatronic Indians perform
their daily routines like cooking buffalo meat, playing with kids, testing their weapons, etc. An
Indian boy and his dog sit on a log watching fish jump around them)

Lewis: Don't worry folks, these natives are definitely friendly. Why some of these good people even
offer warm clothes, shelter, and a hearty meal to weary travelers. They sure did that for us.

Clark: Yes they did, you know I kind of miss that expedition, I didn't realize how good we have it
back in civilization. (We pass by the rest of Indians in total silence, passing two fighting stags,
a buffalo grazing in between some trees, and finally a brown bear climbing a tree clawing at a bee
hive)

Lewis: I believe we have entered Bear Country now. (A brown bear scratches his back on a tree as
two black bears on each side of the boat rise from the water, one with a fish in the mouth)

Clark: Bear Country? We must prepare ourselves, everyone remain still, get out your guns, duck and
cover!

Lewis: Oh William don't worry about it, bears are one of the most playful animals out there. But
they are also mighty lazy, all they do is sleep, and swim, and fish, and eat, and that is when they
aren't sleeping. (Thunder Mesa and a waterfall appear)

Ledge Man: Waterfalls ahead.

Lewis: They call those falls, Twin Sister Falls, I reckon cause they're always babbling.

Clark: Why those falls are pouring from Thunder Mesa! According to the locals that mountain has
magic deep within it, they say cacti sing, weather is controlled by man, and all the varmints live
together in harmony. Strange huh?

Lewis: I'll say, some say that the mesa also offers a first class thrill ride, whatever that is.

Ledge Man: Home dock ahead.

Clark: Well that is just about it folks, if you are on the upper deck start making your way down to
the lower deck now, watch your step. And thanks for bearing with us this voyage.

Lewis: You all come back ya hear?

Ok I am going to start on Adventureland's tropical jungle setting, not the Pirate setting.
This is a rough draft of the attractions, entertainment, shops, and restaurants, minus the descriptions and such.

The land will have the feeling of an abandoned tourist resort built alongside ancient ruins from a long lost civilization (think Expedition Everest's area). The entrance will be like the others, with bamboo poles holding up the thatched straw sign, with skulls and tribal masks impaled on spears and torches. I have also rid of the treehouse attraction. So here are the attractions and shops and dining.

Attractions and Entertainment

1. Jungle River Cruise (newer Jungle Cruise)
2. Stitch's Enchanted Tiki Room (I'll post a script later)
3. Colonel Hathi's Boot Camp (playground)
4. Indiana Jones Roller Coaster (I will post more later)

Shopping and Dining

1. Adventureland Bazaar
2. Crocodile Cargo Company
3. The Hollowed Tiki (Gift shop within a giant tiki)
4. Restaurantosaurus (Large restaurant)
5. Amazon John's Seafood Shack (Small run down stand with seafood)

Don't make it a roller coaster, make it more like the IJA at Disneyland or Tokyo DisneySea. But at the same time, give it a different themed setting and, of course, a different name, like Indiana Jones Adventure: Temple of the (whatever it is you want).

Anyway, I'm still working on Big Thunder and will put it up soon.

Well ok but that means that the Indiana Jones ride will not be an opening day attraction, it will be built years after the park opens to cut back on financial issues.

Indiana Jones Adventure Temple of the Nightmare King

Well that's the working title I have.

Blast I have to go to register for school then I have to go to a doctor's appointment, then I'll be back. So I wont be back until at least four or three, I'll be on till about 12:30 though. When I come back I will begin work on Temple of the Nightmare King. By the way should the temple be tiny like California, or huge and majestic like Tokyo's? I am also considering the Disneyland railroad running through it and getting caught in a booby trap or something.

I think it would be neat to call it Temple of the Nightmare King. And it would also be neat for it to have the Disneyland Railroad train go through. I think it's fair to not have that one be an opening-day attraction; it gives the people more reason to return. For the size, though, I'm not sure. But for the themed location, how about somewhere in... Africa, maybe? The ride is themed to Asia in California and Latin America in Japan. And we should have it so that we're looking for the fabled Observatory of the Future.

Thanks, I was actually going to theme the temple to a forgotten island (like the rest of Adventureland) which I was thinking of calling Adventure Island. The treasure will be the Observatory of the Future and all that, and I am going to theme the ride to the year after "Steamboat Willie" was realeased, whenever that was. Anyhow I will post more later on.

Yes, the Teacups will be in Fantasyland as said in my post. I actually wasn't sure about putting Small World in, as another boat attraction is planned for the area where Small World would be in DL.

That's ok, if there is a second theme park, maybe it can go there.
