Those Magical Express busses are not owned by Disney, They are owned by Mears Transportation, just like the Disney Cruise Line busses. Both services are contracted through Mears. Being a local I never used ME, but I always thought it was a great service and part of the magic. Just like Extra...

New MK resort Launch is open and complete. I took it back in Nov. Overall entrance looks complete.

Just found this scan of an old family pic taken sometime around 1982 likely during the last bits of the tencennial celebration since it ran oct 1, 1981 to oct 1982, Or maybe after the celebration was over. I was around 5 years old here. Here you can see a swan boat passing under Cinderella...

I stumbled across some pics I took March 6, 2010 of the old hub in the area of the swan boat queue. They used to have a swan topiary as a throwback to the boats that were there. Also you can see the actual queue covered area still standing at the time. Of course all this was torn out with the...

Yes there are a few of them at Boardwalk also, glad to see them keep stuff around.

So is this the secret entrance to the new Mexico Barge Ride? LOL

the Swan Boats used to travel the moats around the hub and go underneath the castle bridge. The load/unload station was to the left of the main Tomorrowland walkway in the Hub. It was along what used to the the Rose Walk. This was removed of course with the hub redesign circa 2014. Long after...

If they made a slight jog north of Bonnet Creek it could work. WDW already owns 63.8 acres of wooded area at the start of Bonnet Creek entrance road. Bonnet Creek owns the access road and RCID owns the canals that cut though Bonnet property also. Map Time. As you can see in the quick map view...

Yes, very touching video of a friend honoring his friends last wishes. Location was in MK, near to the Brave Meet and Greet on East side of Castle in the wooded area there along the footpath from Fantasyland to Tomorrowland. I feel their videos were very important in that they documented the...

I just wish they would have added Donald back to Epcot Center Dr after the widening they did there. But, you know costs and all. Plus guests would never know he was there before.....

Here are some maps to explain Buena Vista Blvd. and Center Dr better. Here you see Buena Vista Dr, north end near warehouses (DC) as well as Vista Dr. north entrance as it wraps west and heads towards Ft. Wilderness and TTC. Golden Oak visible bottom left of pic. Here is where it gets tricky...

No hotel Plaza Blvd is different. Buena Vista turn north along disney springs and then goes back stage. If you continue straight it turns into hotel plaza blvd. I'll link a map in a minute.

Inside the toll booths are still pink. hopefully they paint them this go around.

Buena Vista Blvd. and Center Dr. I think that about covers it.

As much as you don't link the baby blue on MK toll plaza, the pink before it was worse. Not to mention when they painted the baby blue back then, they never painted the interior of the toll booths. So you to this day can still see the pink from the previous refurb. I hope at least with this...

yep our local Walmart just went through the similar remodel. grind and polished cement floors, exterior went to grey building with blue accents and blue and white logo. Oh, and a new IHOP in the walmart plaza has accents on the corners of the building that have hidden a few mickeys in them...

I hope they are keeping the castle on the sign. But, I suspect they are removing the castle, bringing it back to the 2006 design as well as older styles.

I noticed after the audio refurb a few years back. You can now hear the pirates in the cave looking for treasure. It is in the queue that goes up and over the boats. As you come back down and before you get on the boat, there is a cave where it plays intermittently. Also during that refurb is...

That Kidani ground level garage is a tight squeeze. Especially that roundabout at the end. When you look at Kidani, the whole first floor is the parking garage. Also has an outside traditional parking area as well up against the building in spots.

Yes sometimes wait times are very bad. I was at Philharmagic this past Wednesday afternoon. Stated Wait Time was 15 minutes. Actual time from the entrance checkpoint to sitting in the theater was 40 minutes, no technical difficulty.
