Reviews:
I just wanted to give my review of "Disnay Animation" in Disney's California Acventure. I'm 13 years old, and I thought the whole attraction was great. I loved the sorcerors workshop where you find out what character you were most like (I was Belle from "Beauty and the Beast"), and the area where you can see what your favorite characters COULD have turned out to be. If my sister would have dragged me outta there, I would have been there all day. Don't miss this place! It's awsome! I'm sure it will turn out to be one of your favorite things there. It was definetly mine!
