Cynthia Harriss: Well this year we've created an even more complete resort experience right here at Disney's California Adventure. As we've brought here that Tony award winning production The Power of Blast! (The audience begins to cheer and Cynthia responds with "you've seen it") , the inspirational festivities with Disney's LuminAria, that sensational Who Wants to be a millionaire - Play it! I don't know if you saw it but last month we even had a surprise visit from Regis Philbin himself. When he came to ask those tough questions. And of course as we all know we had the return of the beloved Disney's Electrical Parade right here to Disney's California Adventure. (Cynthia remarks to an enthusiastic guest in the crowd: Thank you for being our fan, yeah!)
And you know along with that we've offered a whole array of family friendly retail, entertainment and dining experiences because we want this to be a great place for families to come and enjoy those experiences together. So we created a lot more opportunities for kids and those kids at heart to get a chance to interact with Mickey and his pals. Right, Mickey?

Cynthia Harriss: Well Disney's California Adventure continues to develop dynamic new opportunities for families to come and play. So today it is my special privilege to be able to announce two brand-new attractions that will be coming to Disney's California Adventure. Scheduled to debut in 2004 in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot is the amazing Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.
And coming this fall within a new area called A Bug's Land is Flik's Fun Fair for all the great fun for kids and families.

Cynthia Harriss: Well we're tremendously excited about these new creative offerings that we'll be able to add to our fabulous Disney's California Adventure.
Sharing in our excitement is that man who has been spearheading the creative development of the original Disney's California Adventure and is with us today as we continue to build upon that great foundation. It is that wonderful creativity that is behind this park. He is the visionary whose talents and dreams truly shine through the spirit of Disney's California Adventure.
