Friends! This is the best instrumental Disney cd I've found so far at the library. It is so beautiful. I try to find Disney instrumental music for work and when we go to sleep. The arrangements are very uplifting!!
1. Colors of the wind
2. When you wish upon a star
3. Beauty and the beast
4. A whole new world
5. God help the outcasts
6. A dream is a wish your heart makes
7. Mary poppins fantasia
8. Part of your world
9. Once upon a dream
10. Can you feel the love tonight

Question: will you still be allowed to ride a ride if you are in line when the park closes? Or does the ride shut down exactly at park closing even if people are still waiting in line? Thanks!!!
in our experience if you're already in line before clock strikes "close" you're okay. they typically rope off the attraction entrance at time of closing. - OhanaPhoto1413.9 #56 10-4-12 10:53AMLike(4) Reply
