          ORWEN: I always thought the Magic Kingdom in Florida had a subtropical climate and atmosphere, too.

          ORGOCH: Yeah, but yer the sort who always gits herself inta trouble whenever she tries ta think. Just shut up and stuff yerself with another Krispy Kreme--okay?

              Longer? Definitely not in terms of ride time (maybe they drive faster?).
              You'd think with so much shore to work with they'd add a few more show scenes...

                The mountains in the background are neat. But unlike at TDS, you can't see the ocean from the park...

                  but location wise, HKDLR is much better than TDR. HKDLR is almost isolated, giving it a more secluded feeling than TDR.

                    How many other resorts are not only accessable by uber-cool computer controlled Mickey trains on a dedicated line designed to tranport you from the real world to the whimsical Disney realm, but also by boat (coming soon)?

                    Definately all of the above, plus:
                    Best Orbitron,
                    Best staff,
                    Best regular Space Mountain and
                    Best Autopia (hopefully).

                    Yes, I know the last 3 are highly contestable, but in my experience I have found that to be so.
                    Such is the nature of one's opinions.

                      Best Disney theme park in China.

                      Most realistic pee-scented bushes.

                      Best place to witness the Chinese-Child Toss.

                        I must say that does give the resort a pretty cool effect. It gives it an almost WDW feel, in that you are surrounded by Disney.The mountains are a big plus! They look beautiful behind the castle.

                            You are absolutely correct! Hong Kong is MORE subtropical than WDW tho. Orlando can drop below freezing in the winter where Hong Kong never does. It is amazing the additional species of plants this makes possible in HK that can not be grown in FL...

                              I agree on the Orbitron (I forgot to include that). And you're right that the other 3
                              are debatable.
