ANAHEIM, Calif., Nov. 10 (UPI) -- Disneyland is widening its classic "It's a Small World" ride in Anaheim, Calif., to prevent heavy-riding boats from bottoming out, the Los Angeles Times said.
Officials at the South California amusement park said fiberglass buildup from years of patching -- not overweight riders -- is causing boats to become lodged at two spots in the 41-year-old ride, near the Canadian Mounties and Scandinavian geese, the newspaper said.
The ride will close for 10 months to enable repairs, allowing Disneyland to also give "It's a Small World" a makeover.
