    When are you going to fix that yeti?

    Me personally I would like to see them spend the money on other things over fixing it at this point. I was able to see the Yeti in mode A long ago. I have also seen tarp Yeti, Disco Yeti, and a couple other versions as well. My most recent trip saw the version that has been around for...

    Mine Ride Construction Update

    Took this picture yesturday and the tarp was up again under the bridge. The wind was blowing enough for me to get a shot of the worker.

    Festival of Fantasy Parade coming to Magic Kingdom in 2014

    Saw the parade this past Friday and loved it. Got a couple nice pictures that I will enjoy for years.

    Here is the photo taken later in the day after the tarp was removed.

    Mine Ride Construction Update

    Was just there checking things out this past Friday. The tarp was up under the bridge early in the day and they were cutting 2 foot sections of wood. They had maybe 8 of them cut and from what I could tell it they were moving a rail back under that bridge. Later that day i went back by and the...

    Still holding out hope that this will have soft openings when I get there. Starting to think I have no chance though...

    SDMT OPENING DATE (RUMOR)

    I thought staff training was going to start on 3/16. At least that is what I read somewhere. If it does start up in 3 days I could see soft opening starting in early April. Hopefully that is the case as I will be there from 4/1 through 4/6.

    Expedition Everest effects status watch

    Speaking of watching TV shows about Disney... I watched all of the shows this past week on Travel America and I really don't understand why they would air the Animal Kingdom show without editing it a bit when it comes to the Yeti. Talk about false advertising. They go on and on about how much...

    A little bit cheeky, a little bit naughty or just downright wrong?

    When I went when my kids were younger they wouldn't ride the mountains but I would use their park tickets for fastpasses all the time. It is actually no different than using their Rider Switch Service and even better because the time was set aside for the fastpass anyways. There is nothing...

    Main Street U.S.A. hub redevelopment at the Magic Kingdom

    I understand why they are doing this but it kinda bums me out. Especially because I will be there in a month and I am now just hoping it isn't all torn up when I get there.

    AVATAR land construction progress

    They should just add a Dino themed midway mania to that area. It would draw huge crowds and add in an attraction that is much needed in the park. The technology is already there so the cost of it would be far less than it was for the Toy Story one. Do this and that area would be far more...

    How can people justify going often?

    Disney is a state of mind for me more than a destination. The minute I walk into the gates of any of the parks I feel a weight lifted off of me. It is just a care free way to spend my vacation time and I really enjoy it. I used to live in Florida in my youth and we had season passes. We...

    The Mine Train 'temper your expectations' thread

    I personally believed you from the start. You never said anything that wasn't believable really at all. I would stop trying to prove anything to anyone and hopefully you can continue to post without any worry to losing future work. I would hate for you to post something that would throw a red...

    EPCOT: What would you add or change?

    1) Return Journey into the imagination to its original state in its entirety including the area after the ride. 2) Refurbish the theater that now houses the captain EO show to be a simulation 3D theater similar to Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem in universal studios. Allow the ride/show to be...

    Morbid Endings To Dark Rides

    I have some great memories of both of these rides as I visited often in my younger years. The best one is on MTWR. It was about 25 years ago. I was 13 and was at the Magic Kingdom with my sister and one of her friends. It was late enough that most of fantasy land was walk on to ride...

    Fantasyland/Mine Train aerial image update

    I read something about this being an issue about 8 weeks ago. I can't imagine it is still an issue at this point. Based purely on speculation the work on the outside really ramped up over the past 3 weeks. I would guess this may have had something to do with the ride vehicle issue being...

    I think it is simply to give us something to talk about. :)

    Mine Ride Construction Update

    From all the on-site reports they seem to be working rain or shine on the outside to finish things up. Looking very promising for my trip in early april. :)
