At DL they do not have separate maps in foreign languages. At the turnstiles, they have the map and a schedule all in English.
Maybe they get foreign language maps at City Hall. A DL CM would know that answer. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
I always wondered about that, since at WDW you can get all sorts of languages. We brought home some Deutsch maps for Raffle's mom. I think it is cool that they have maps in all the languages. I did not find Polish however! What's up with that? ;) My mom would have enjoyed looking at that.
NO POLISH JOKES!!!!!!! ;)
HRH the Naughty Polish Princess Susi :p:

I've seen maps of DCA in Spanish and Japanese at the information booth by the toy store.

"Yes, sir, but the water is fake."

Even better. Post the DL maps at TL! Talk about chaos. Can you see someone trying to find the Matterhorn in the water park? :twisted: :D:

Nah! People would just think they were MK maps. But I might bring some DL maps back with me and load them in one of the racks in the tunnel near City Hall at MK.
The concept is not to confuse them more, but to screw over their (alleged) minds totally!

Not sure I told this story here already but I was working at Finding Nemo in Epcot when a guest came to me asking for crush roller coaster. Of course we do not have one. When I explained what we do have he got very upset and insisted over and over again that it does exist and he saw it on the map.
I asked to see this map. He pulled out his phone and sure enough we do have a crush coaster. Problem is that its located in Euro Disney at Walt Disney Studios.

You missed out on a golden opportunity.
SG: "Excuse me, I'm not seeing any of these rides on the map."
Universal CM: "Well let me look at it. Ah yes. These rides are in the underground park area. You have to go to the Harry Potter land and in (name of shop) there are stairs to take you down there. If you have any problems, tell any of the CM's there that your looking for the "Magic-al Kingdom". Be sure to show them your map of what ride you want, They will know what you mean and direct you there.
