Almost as fun as the ride itself, the wait area is seriously impressive. The Disney parks are famous for their genius distraction techniques in their queue areas. Interactive activities, tabletop video games, spinning jewel barrels and a cooling water station. Disney wants guests to feel as though the attraction starts as soon as they enter the ride area, which is something that really adds to the whole ride experience. You're not just sat around tapping your feet and waiting for your turn to come along, you're playing around and forgetting that you're essentially waiting for 30 to 60 minutes.
The Fantasyland expansion is the largest in the parks history. It's a clear indicator that the Disney empire continues to go from strength to strength and get bigger, better and livelier each year. The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train opened on May 27th to rave reviews and is just one of the magical ways that the park has really upped its game over the recent years. In a fast-paced 21st century world, Disney really is doing a gem of a job keeping up with modern audiences.
