To early to tell this is going into its Seasonal opening and also to help out with crowds since Alien Encounter will be closed

All right! I LOVE CoP and haven't seen it in FOREVER...come on, March, hurry up and get here! :sohappy:

Okay then, this is some good news. The news that CoP and The Timekeeper are being opened though.

The bad news is that Alien Encounter is closing.

Not to sound stoopid, but I assume this means Timekeeper will be open in December? I've REALLY missed this attraction.

From the notes I would say yes it will be open to handle the Holiday crowds

Well at least with this bad there will be some good. Can't wait to see Timekeeper this December (And CoP too but we got to see it in July also). It will be tough for me to go into Tomorrowland and not see my AE open but it's gotta be done :lol:

 

[Katherine]

Yay! I'm so happy.. to bad I'm not going to WDW. :animwink:

 

[WDW John]

While I'll miss AE I find it cool that CoP and Timekeeper will both be open, I haven't seen CoP in a couple of years and Timekeeper in a few. My time to check back in is coming up in just a couple of weeks!

Now, my question: will there be any objections to video taping all of CoP? I know, I know, no lights or flashes, but is it OK if I just sit there quietly taping?

Thanks,

 

[valmont]

Im gonna miss AE. But im happy in the other hand because im gonna get to see CoP and Timekeeper. I havent seen CoP since I was like 9, and I have never seen Timekeeper. :-D
