The Fantasyland on it’s a small world ride !!!

Posted in Europe, France, Paris

And indeed my boys convince me to be back, again. After so many trips lost count to the Orlando property and 6x times in Disneyland Paris. A bit short on personnel , two dear women and a great men missing, but we were back along with our dog Rex , and my 3 boys !!! Disneyland is always magical once in it and with family even better! We came again , and it was a blast ! Text done with a combination of official Disney site and wikipedia, Therefore, let me tell you again on the Fantasyland on it’s a small world ride !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I,

There you go, it’s a small world indeed, Set sail on a whimsical journey around the world on this unmissable and iconic attraction that will inspire a sense of pure wonder in your little ones… and grown ups too! Sing along to the classic anthem of world peace with dolls from all four corners of the globe during a delightful musical boat tour for all the family.

Voyage along the Seven Seaways canal and over 300 audio-animatronic dolls in traditional costumes from cultures around the world, frolicking in a spirit of international unity, and singing the attraction’s title song, which has a theme of global peace. “Children of the World” was the working title of the attraction. Its soundtrack, composed by the Sherman Brothers A version of It’s a Small World opened at Disneyland Paris on April 12, 1992.

Don’t miss the attraction’s spectacular multi-coloured moving façade, complete with spinning flowers, whirling shapes and famous landmarks representing different styles of architecture from around the world. Every 15 minutes, watch a musical parade of animated toy figures at the top of the 30-foot clock tower.

The facade features rearranged and slightly redesigned landmarks with a completely different clock tower. The exterior clock face features a wide-awake sun on its left half and a sleeping moon on its right half. Unlike all other versions of the ride, every scene is housed in one room with arches being used to define sections of the ride. The scenery design is a complete departure from Mary Blair’s distinctive style, though the dolls used remain identical to all other versions

“it’s a Small World (After All)” is a timeless classic and one of the most well-known songs of all time. Walt Disney asked the Academy Award®-winning brothers, Richard and Robert Sherman, who were hard at work on Mary Poppins, to create a single song that could be sung by Audio-Animatronics figures in multiple languages.

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
