The area is just beautiful. I noticed (as did others) that the bird sounds are part of the background loop of the forest. Does anyone know if these sounds are the distress sounds similar to the ones at the Electric Umbrella at Epcot? Those sounds keep the real birds from approaching. It...

The tech that they are showing is old, limited, and (in my opinion) lame. I have been on University campuses that show the same information but also depict the bus location on a map. For the 3 Universities that I have seen there is also a smart phone app that the students can download and...

We live in south central Alabama and have the luxury of driving to WDW. We normally stay at AKL and, without a doubt drive to every park except MK. We have experimented with having one parent, one kid ride the bus while the others drove (our youngest actually like the bus; she's 5 and will get...

Harumph....what Lee said.

^^^^Those are great points with the government strongly incentivizing anything that can be labeled "green." The monorail is considered green public transportation and RCID could potentially use that to leverage outside funding/tax incentives. That's the only way that I see it happening BUT...

I've seen a few social media posts that referenced some remarks that Marty Sklar made. It was reported that Marty was excited for the future of Epcot and that we would be as well. Has anyone heard any rumblings?

Unfortunate. Thanks for the quick response!

@Lee With all of the "smoke" for DHS, AK, DCL, and FLE being built in MK, is there any talk of EPCOT getting some love beyond the TT refurb?

They had a press event for new bleachers which was pretty pathetic. They would be a laughing stock if they made a big deal out of building new bathrooms. That being said, I think the area will look amazing when it's finished.

Very nice!

I'm not a wine guy by any means but the beer list, for a short one, is fairly impressive with a nice French brew and several Belgians. I may have to rethink my decision to not go to WDW until FLE is complete; it may be worth a quick weekend trip with the Mrs. to check this place out.

Pardon me for asking a somewhat obvious question but if Avatar/Pandora is somewhere between on hold and cancelled, why not leave the show up and running WHILE the new venue is under construction? This would seem to indicate that something is going into the CMM area sooner rather than later.

You and me both!!!

It sure would be nice get some aerial shots to confirm or deny any prep work for the Avatar project.

If I had been driving, the same thing would have happened :rolleyes:

I just looked at the existing F! stadium and the standing room areas in the backs of either side. This work should be completed in less than a week since the area is backstage most of the time anyway. I taught at a High School when they replaced the bleachers in the football stadium. The...

I wish I could like this post 1000 times. I have a friend who is a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic that used to take disability applications for the Social Security Administration. Kim would look up at some of the people turning the application in and ask, "You do realize that laziness is not a...

So if Skipper John is dead set against RSR or Carsland going anywhere but DCA, I wonder what his opinion of Pixar Place at DHS is. Surely he's been to the park and found it lacking. I guess my question would be, if not RSR, what? Something has to be done (if the insiders are right which I...

I'm a little late to the conversation and have just gotten up to speed; I'm in Emergency Management with the National Guard and have been dealing with Isaac. While I'm excited that we're getting CarsLand, my general philosophy on clones is something like this. If California gets a new...

A very well themed kiddie coaster, C ticket dark ride (a walk up at DCA), restaurant and a cool meet and greet. I don't think it could be considered the best in the world at all. I will say that, on the surface, it's a ton of eye candy and does look amazing. It lacks a bit in the content...
