Disney and the Shanghai municipal government jointly submitted plans in January to build a $3.59-billion park to open as early as 2014. It would be the entertainment giant's fourth theme park outside the U.S., after Paris, Tokyo and Hong Kong -- and the first in mainland China, the fastest-growing mass market in the world. -------------------- DJSkylab.com: My blog :) ArtOfBackpacking.com: Backpacking Independent International Traveler Facebook "They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself." -Andy Warhol "My body has certainly wandered a good deal, but I have an uneasy suspicion that my mind has not wandered enough." -Noel Coward
