Let Me Introduce You

As we might be spending some time at the Walt Disney Studios, I thought we should pop back to the entrance and find out a little more about the park before we enjoy all of its offerings!

The park opened on March 16th 2002, and is the smallest of all the Disney theme parks. The park has suffered a lot of criticism, mainly for the lack of attractions upon opening. It is classically described as a 'half-day theme park', unfortunately, and is overlooked by a lot of guests. I do have to agree that there is not as much to do in this park as there is in it's sister park across the way, but it is still a fantastically fun Disney park. There are more shows than rides here, and there is also the famous Studio Tram Tour.
While the park, perhaps, doesn't have the same degree of theming as other Disney parks, it has been built to feel more like a film studio than anything else. Just looking at the park entrance you can tell what the theming of the park is - especially when you look at the detailing on the floor of spotlights.
Tomorrow, we're going to head into the park and explore some of the Front Lot. So please join us then! Also, please say hi and leave a comment to let me know if there is anything specific you would like me to cover, especially within the Paris theme parks. Thank you to all of you who read, too!
