Aloha Friday: New Fantasyland and Test Track

Over the past two days, I’ve gotten to experience the magical New Fantasyland and the exhilaration of the completely redesigned Test Track.  I’m going to devote a few (read: many) blog posts on them, but for now here are two videos.

First up, is the official grand opening of New Fantasyland, starring a star from Once Upon a Time and the song stylings of Jordin Sparks.  I’ll admit, parts of it had me in tears.

Next, is the video of the redesigned Test Track.  You get to design your own car and then see how it handles the Test Track course.  It was so incredible that we rode it twice.  The second time, I tried to get a video of the experience.  It’s very dark and shaky, but it’s the best I was able to do.  Apparently, the lady in the row in front of us was told that it only went about 30 mph.  She was quite – um, "surprised" – when the car went 66mph.

My Aloha Friday question for today is: Would you rather see New Fantasyland or design your own car and ride on the new Test Track?

Disclosure: I was invited to the New Fantasyland media event December 5th through 7th. Disney paid for my travel, our park tickets, room, and a few other items. I was able to take B along as my guest, but we paid for her own travel as well as an extra night in the resort. The opinions expressed above are my own.

P.S. If you haven’t already, try out my Twitter applications: FollowerHQ and Rout.

Thanks to Kailani at An Island Life for starting this fun for Friday. Please be sure to head over to her blog to say hello and sign the linky there if you are participating.
