    Universal UK?

    That’s the tune you changed to after you were finally convinced that yes, there was a park being built, well into obvious construction that everyone had to keep pointing out was happening in the update photos. An extended timeline into the 2030s is something that shouldn’t be unexpected with...

    Universal UK?

    You also were insistent that Epic construction would be abandoned in the middle of it being built. This will likely be a very lengthy process and I have every expectation even once shovels are in the dirt and they've started selling tickets that you'll be claiming they'll abandon it any day now...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    If it weren’t worth keeping around for the profits then we know it would be shuttered, so it is making enough profit somehow. I’d say about half the time I pop in just to people watch and enjoy the music for a little bit the floor is actually decently full. Atlantic Dance will almost certainly...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    Private events like weddings and conventions (it’s a Disney owned venue, not 3rd party), plus now it’s the free nightlife spot on property for CPs instead of Jellyrolls. The decks have a pretty nice view of Luminous, too.

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Managed a few hours of sleep without any real loss of power, so yeah. Glad to see everyone around is good, too. That wind was something else!

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    It’s currently over the attractions area and it is not fun at all. Can feel and now hear our upstairs shaking with the wind we’re getting. Can’t help but think that cleanup is going to last into Friday with debris, even if major and minor structures aren’t badly damaged enough to keep them from...

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Woke up a little bit ago after a few hours of sleep to the wind roaring like mad. Went upstairs to check on things and wow…can feel everything shaking during the strongest moments. No apparent water damage or intrusion so far, but I was back downstairs pretty quickly. Probably won’t be going...

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    My first thought when I saw the pictures of the cots being set up was that I would rather be on the upper concourses, club level, or team areas than on the field.

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Had the power go through a prolonged flicker (about 5 seconds with a few things off or actually flickering) a few minutes ago, so I’m not feeling confident for what’s to come after seeing what happened to the Trop.

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Wow…Tropicana Field just lost about half of the dome fabric. It is just shredded…

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Now is when it will start getting really interesting in the attractions area. We’re in the mass of nasty storms on the north side of the “eye” until around 4-6am. Lights have been flickering every so often for me since about 8pm.

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    HAFS-A has been relatively close with the rapid intensifications of Milton so far, more accurate than the others it seems. It has wind falling off pretty steeply over land thankfully, so hopefully it stays just as accurate in that regard no matter the exact track.

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Physically, mostly (forgot a few things until it was too late, but nothing that will hopefully be critical, just things I wish I had done for a little extra peace of mind). Mentally, not at all. 😂

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Do you think the models are all underrepresenting the MSLP and 10m winds on those graphics? Those are what I’ve been using to try and calm my nerves since no matter the track they’re generally seeming to show sustained winds under 45kt here in the Orlando area. HWRF is showing a little stronger...

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    Decided to take a look at the models a little bit ago and noticed they're starting to drift northwards beyond Lake Apopka, so I hope the track ends up reflecting what your interpretation is, and that it holds for my sanity/piece of mind. The winds definitely seem to fall off faster inland in the...

    Hurricane Milton coming to FL

    It needs to shift quite a bit further south to take serious direct damage partly off the table for the attractions area. If anything the current slight shift south puts the attractions area in the “dirtiest” part of the storm north/northeast of the eye. Best tracks for the WDW area are either...

    Tokyo Disneyland Resort Expansion

    This is the reason I took the plunge with the vacation package. While we roughly know how to use and jump through all those hoops, I knew that would result in a more stressful visit and I would be more hesitant to take the slower pace I wanted to be able to just enjoy and take in everything, in...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    The Chronos is also still roughly 80-90% finished. They have some more details on the top, plus the additional stuff on the sides above the portal where the bare silver metal is still visible. The additional structure on the sides will help to give it more visual weight. I’m uncertain what the...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Stained/colored glass style at that scale? Never seen that in my 14 years down here, though I don't wander very far outside the I-4 corridor. And "brutal" was more about the environment under a big glass enclosure than what it was exposed to. Sure, there might exist or could be made a material...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    My first reaction was that I was disappointed as well, but then after I thought about for a minute, I'm good without actual glass because that could have been brutal under there, and of course things like hail, debris blowing during hurricanes, etc. Hopefully there's some lighting effects on the...
