It's Christmas night tonight and, as there shouldn't be any Christmas without a Christmas gift, i've got a great one for you with this series of great high-def wallpaper images for your desktop. The first ones above and below are Shanghaî Disneyland wallpapers which were given to SDL cast-members Grand Opening team, and the others, right after, are Disneyland Star Wars land wallpapers done with the previously released renderings that i'm sure you will love too. Click on each to get them in big size, and Merry Christmas to you all!
And here are the Disneyland Star Wars land wallpaper!
Actress Carrie Fisher - Star Wars Princess Leia - had a cardiac arrest during a flight from London to Los Angeles and was rushed on arrival to UCLA Medical Center in critical condition. More news on the L.A Times website HERE and on CNN HERE. Update: Carrie Fisher was unresponsive as paramedics raced to the gate 74 ... according to emergency dispatch calls to LAX. TMZ obtained the audio, and you can hear HERE LAFD responding to a reported cardiac arrest. Air traffic control coordinated to make sure first responders were ready when the plane pulled into the gate. It also sounds like some of the passengers assisting on flight 935 were nurses. Carrie Fischer is currently in stable condition at UCLA Medical Center.
HKDL guests can now take the HK Star Ferry from Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier to Hong Kong Disneyland Resort Pier, probably the coolest way to go to HKDL - for 180 HKD ( 23$ US ) - while enjoying the stunning view of Hong Kong bay! Highly recommended for you next visit at HKDL, instead to take the train, and both last the same time, around 45 minutes. Sail on and soak in the extraordinary view! Even better, you can purchase a promotional package to enjoy the water tour and receive free Disneyland souvenirs plus a refreshment on board. Promotional package details can be found HERE or below. Options exist which include ticket to the park, and even one with afternoon tea or set lunch at HKDL Walt Cafe!
Ticketing
The Star Ferry's Water Tour tickets are sold over the Water Tour ticket counter at the Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier on the date of departure on a first-come-first-served basis. No online booking and reservation is currently offered. Please purchase in cash of Hong Kong dollars.
Schedule & Fares
The Star Ferry's Water Tour runs round trip between Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier and the Disneyland Resort Pier in daytime. In the evening, you can join our tour to see all Hong Kong's famous harbour side attractions with the ICC Light Show & Symphony of Lights show.
This ticket is especially for passengers who would like to watch the ICC light & music show and multi-media laser show (A Symphony of Lights) on board. A refreshment coupon is included. The steering route covers the western part of Victoria Harbour and Kai Tak Cruise Terminal.
I have a third Disneyland Paris update for you this week, the last big one before Christmas and may be until the beginning of next year. Max, D&M contributor and DLPWelcome webmaster is back with great night pictures of the newly renovated Frontierland, and more, that i'm sure you're gonna love! So, let's embark aboard the Molly Brown for a cruise along the Rivers of the Far-West at night, would we?
Hey, Max has even shot for you a video of the Molloy Brown cruise at night, isn't it cool?
Let's move to Adventureland at Colonel Hathi's restaurant to have a look at the Audio-Animatronics bird who are back!
It's Christmas time in the park and DLP guest can enjoy the lights of Christmas all along Main Street as soon as night falls!
Max has more for you as we move now to the Walt Disney Studios where a Star Wars projection show will start January 14 with the projections done on the facade of the Tower of Terror. They were doing some tests the other night and Max was there to shoot some pictures, though you'll have to guess what was projected as it is not totally obvious.
As there shouldn't be any Christmas without Christmas gift, make sure to come back on Saturday December 24 as i'll have a cool one for you! Max will be back soon with new pictures of Disneyland Pris so stay tuned on Disney and more! In the meantime here is an IMPORTANT MESSAGE for my french readers, and specifically those who don't own yet the Disneyland Paris book: NOTE IMPORTANTE A L'ATTENTION DE CEUX QUI NE POSSEDENT PAS ENCORE LE LIVRE "DE L'ESQUISSE A LA CREATION": Il reste environ 60 exemplaires de cette édition collector française du livre, qui ne sera pas rééditée car c'était une édition limitée à 2000 exemplaires. En conséquence et compte tenu que l'offre spéciale de Noel court toujours ( voir ci-dessous ) 30 exemplaires ( sur les 60 restant ) peuvent toujours bénéficier de l'offre spéciale de Noel à 60 euros, et les 30 derniers exemplaires seront vendus au prix normal du livre, 100 euros. Il n'y aura donc PAS de nouvelle promotion et je ne saurais que trop conseiller à ceux qui n'ont pas encore le livre de profiter de l'offre de Noel tant qu'il en reste!
