This video I believe I took in 2011 or 12. It was before they put in more windows and cut most of the screen showing the "Norge! Norge!" slideshow in the club. (That disappeared when Disney took over the pavilion 100% in 2002 due to not being willing to pay for the rights). And yeah that big...

Well, atleast now we KNOW that Disney is watching all these postings, and that they know that people are upset Norway´s being gut out for a fictional movie. Maybe they will do this ride right...? I will take it down if they ask me to, of course. I mean I dont have a need to have it up, the site...

Think I might have to take down the site soon... According to some of my sources, Disney is very upset about this stuff and there have been meetings and investigation. I dont know what to say... Well, good thing I dont want to go back.

Yes, all water gets drained and refilled every day. They did not build a reservoir to keep the water... I believe they have in Mexico though.

Glad you enjoyed them! I also found some new that are added to the gallery... Appearantly the scheduled opening day was suppose to be July 1th, 1988. Thats atleast what a sign says that I saw in the maintenance area. www.norwaypavilion.com (Im going through my whole iphoto library atm and...

Some is taken while checking the attraction in the morning before opening time, some are taken during operation and some are taken after closure (when the attraction is shut down and emptied of water).

If I still worked there, I would imagine to be terminated by now... I dont think Disney appriciated me being on the national news here in Norway asking the Norwegian government to stop Disney´s plan to close Maelstrom and turn the pavilion into a "Norwegian" pavilion again and dont let it be...

If anyone is interested in seeing some of the pictures from "behind the scenes"/backstage at the Maelstrom ride, I have put them on my site. www.norwaypavilion.com

Eatnemen Vuelie is made by a Norwegian componist and sung by a Norwegian choir. In Southern Sami language Vuelie is the name for the kind of song it is, joiking. The translation would be the earths song.

I think that the result will be a chaos for months, if not years. Norway has very small space, so the pavilion is not at all made for something more than 40 minute waits. I think it will be like New Years Eve every day... Madness. Disney also thought about using the store for que to the new...

From the entrance door the line is about 25 minutes long. Totally depending on the FP+ line of course... But usually thats how it is... Disney know that the new line for Frozen is gonna be huuuge, so they want the new line to go through the theater. I hope they update the movie and make it ala...

Dejlig er Jorden(Fairest Lord Jesus) is written in Denmark, in Norwegian named Deilig er Jorden. Its a full out christmas-song. The Danes had nothing to do with Eatnemen Vuelie or any of the Frozen. The Norwegian composer Frode Fjellheim wrote Eatnemen Vuelie (named Vuelie in Frozen) in 1996...

The opening song is really Norwegian, not Danish, they took away the "danish" part. Frode Fjellheim (Norwegian) made his version that Disney liked and wanted for the movie, this version is Eatnemen Vuelie, which was written for the Norwegian choir "Cantus" in 1996 and released in "Norwegian...

I have done some polling of Norwegians in this matter, mostly people who have worked in the pavilion as they have experienced the ride themself. And most people are against a Frozen change, but there are a few who mean Maelstrom is weird and welcome any refurb. Sort of like this forum after what...

Its amazing to see that this thread has so many postings, and Im happy to see that the majority of peope are against a remake of the Norwegian classic Maelstrom to be a full on Frozen ride. I have been working against this from the moment I heard it, and while the hope to stop Disneys plans to...

That was disappointing.... I guess they didnt announce anything because they know how CRAZY all the fans would get.

I wish I could see the ABC live special... But Im in Norway, so not possible. :( Or does anyone know how to stream ABC for free?

Norways spirit has always been, will always be, adventure!

Any updates from the ABC show about Frozen thats airing now?
