Since the first day of previews in early 1992 the Disneyland Park at Disneyland Resort Paris could pride itself with its security. While regular guests will rarely notice the security cast members once they have passed the initial bag check at the entrance to Fantasia Gardens, security (as well as health and fire rescure teams if necessary) are always ready to show up on short notice if needed. Differing from many other theme parks the resort never attempted a strategy of deterrence inside its theme parks. This even included the fact that there were rarely any security cameras on sight guests could have easily spotted – which was not only due to the fact that most cameras were placed far outside the sight lines of most guests and very well hidden / integrated into the themeing.

Stitch Problems
Sunday, March 22nd, 2009
The new Stitch experience “Dance Time in Discoveryland”, set to open as from April 4th, is already fighting with some problems. The show will feature Stitch as your “local” DJ and will invite children and those young at hart to join him and dance on his music. Guest will be able to take place on one of the circles you can find around the attraction’s location between Star Tours entrance and the back of Space Mountain: Mission II. The Circles have a four colored pattern so dancing guests can follow the routine shown during the show.
Unfortunately the painted circles are not made to withstand the abuse they are undergoing at the moment. With the location being a passing through area for guest visiting the “Honey I Shrunk the Audience” attraction or going to “Pizza Planet”, the cicles are already suffering sufficient damage. Many of the circles are broken and are getting loose. A problem that will only worsen once the many guest will start using them to dance.
