Do they still "blow up" the torch in the World Showcase Lagoon for Iluminations? I saw the show last night and it didn't do anything but open up and higher the torch!
Last night, Friday, the torch that rises out of the globe didn't rise at all. It lit but didn't move. Also, oddly, the globe was parked by the American Adventure Theater all day long ~ normally that gets towed there around 4pm.
BTW, the holiday ending (Peace On Earth) to ROE was also last night. The firework finally of that segment has to be the most at one time, and LOUDEST fireworks I think I've ever seen before. It makes your head pound like it could be the end of the world in armageddon.
Hmmm...Are you sure? I saw it rise two times, but didn't light! I was there last night!
Yes, it truly is an amazing ending on top of an already spectacular finale.
What really impressed me the most was just how loud it was, and how far away you can hear it. (Even the regular RoE fireworks carry pretty well, but not like the Holiday FInale...)
We could clearly hear the finale fireworks at our condo at Orange Lake CC last year, and it's over 4.5 miles away as the crow flies...
