Haha, it's a deep cut though, so totally understandable. I'll also have to draw up Tokyo's Splash Mountain and Shanghai's "Mount Apu Taku" here as an expansion pack. 😜

I've added both individual stickers and a Mountain Badge sweatshirt to my online store – shop.parklore.com!

I've hand-illustrated over a hundred theme park ride layouts! Check them all out on my Flickr, or read through my three in-depth collections:

(Planet Watch is off the map, as in north of the canal that borders Gravity Falls.. I don’t know much, but I know enough to keep that facility! Hahah)

It’s still there, just off the map. I intentionally didn’t expand into it. Also, the article companion has like, 1,000 words of me saying “this is fake, I know nothing about zoo facilities, I’m not even trying, I’m being very conservative with changing as little as possible bc idk” hahahaha

This had me nervous for a second 😅. But thank you. I definitely finish these projects after being very immersed in them for weeks and feel very sad that none of it is real. So I understand your pain. Haha!

How did this pavilion become THE SEAS WITH NEMO AND FRIENDS? You can compare the two layouts – overlaid with a slider – in my THEN & NOW collection of hand-drawn ride layouts!

Yes! It'l be super interesting to see what the patterns start as and how they develop over time...

Correct! 😫

So cool! Thanks for telling me! I hope they’re helpful haha

I will personally be reaching out to the resort via the contact form to (kindly!) communicate how spectacular this character and her “friend” are, and how I hope she remains a year-round walk around character. Here’s the link if you want to join me: t.co/wIzuOCTXI7

😅 To their credit, they're call it a 12-day Christmas countdown and not an Advent calendar.
