Still kinda Fall-ish.
They don't announce things then, do they?
And the other.

They would certainly discuss past announcements. And they give hints at things to come. But WDW fans should show up with great questions prepared.

:lol::sohappy:March 10th 2010 in San Antonio.
"Remember the Expansion!"
sorry
You win History points, it's cool.
True.
When I become a stockholder (soon) I certainly do hope to attend at least ONE meeting. And yell my head off.:lookaroun

Hmmm... 9 months, while a decent amount of time, is still relatively short for a full demolition and complete reconstruction.
I wonder if their plans are only for a partial demolition, keeping some of the central building containing the kitchen and counter facilities, and then just expand/rebuild/retheme/reconfigure the rest of the structure and seating areas...
Or, maybe because it's so visible, they've thrown some extra money at it to get it all done faster.
One thing's for sure, Mexico will be a rather dark pavilion during RoE... There's a lot of lighting gear on the Cantina roof to light the front of the pyramid.

Short for Disney yes but in the real world it can be done. It will take a good superintendent and tight scheduling but I have seen projects of a similar scope come off in that time frame. Disney does not have to deal with the paperwork headaches that us regular Joe's have to endure and that fact alone can shave weeks off of a project.

Sept 24th, thats fine by me.
Funny how fast food chaions can go from land to serving in less than a month, well they can round here, maybe its the Polish workers.

They will be installing temporary lighting to light up Mexico during ROE

They built all of EPCOT Center in 3 years! How come they can't build a flippin' Cantina/Restaurant in 9 months?! LOL!
I don't see why they have such a hard time keeping schedules these days (yes, I know that they have to work around the guests, the area is not easily accessible for equipment, etc., but STILL!!).
Heck - let's get Admiral Joe Fowler on the job! (Well, I know that he's no longer with us, but regardless - He coulda' done it!)
There is a huge difference in building in an open field and building in an operating theme park.

Very smart of them. Any hope on Norway, yet? :lol:

Norway doesn't participate in Illuminations due to religious reasons.

When was the last time you ate at either of the Mexican restaurants? They are NASTY! :ROFLOL:
Of course, it doesn't help that I've eaten at real Mexican restaurants many, many, many, many, many, many times. (Get the picture?)

What beer pillaging and raping?
I thought it was Morroco and Norway balances it out, though I could be talking Ertha.

No, it's Morocco that can not have lighting on it for religious reason specifying that a religious structure (or one that even looks like it, as in EPCOT) can not be lit.
Norway was just left out, seeing that IllumiNations premiered before it was built.
That's hardly an excuse, though...It stands out like a sore thumb.
