Hey everyone out there. In this update, AK, and Epcot

--At Epcot, Mexico and Germany pavalion facades are under rehab, but still open
--Mission:Space--I can confirm it will not open for testing this week


And now to the good news--

--While "mosying" through Asia, I came upon some interesting stuff. Many trees in the smoking area by the Kali entrance, have yellow marker tags on them marked "Everest" and there WDI tags. An interesting fact on these tags is that they have HKDL marked out with a black marker. Talk about cheap
--Another Everest fact is that it is ABSOLUTELY going across the bridge and near the lake. Think of walking over the bridge to Asia from DI, and you look right. Water draining has already started, and tractors spotted.
--While at AK, it was extremely busy. I took avantage of the new AP event there having at the park. You go to Island Merchantile, book up a book, and go scavenger Hunting all day. The book has 50 questions, and there not easy. I'll post them later.

The parks were VERY busy today. Like "cant find a seat" busy. Lines were not incredibly long, there were just people everywhere.

Ok all, pics of the imagineering markers will be up very soon, as well as the water draining. That does it for the edition. Goodnight.

We are at 99.9% Resort Occupancy. (And yet my hours are being cut because attendance is down. Riiight.)

Hi!

Thank you for the excellent information! Do you happen to have the answers to any of those questions? I was going to do the hunt (I'm an AP holder also), but the questions are outrageous!
I only have one day to spend at AK, I'd spend all day answering questions!

Guys, I know about 30 of the 50. The other 20 required me wait in 70 minute waits to find them out. Im going to finish it up another day. I think they went a little overboard, having 50 questions. And before I went on this hunt, I had to go pen hunting in all the stores cause I forgot a pen. Te lady at Island Merchantile finally gave me one after I begged her.

Do you mean the one in my photo album? Its a funny story. When my grandma moved down to Florida in 91, she found that map in a closet of the house she moved into. The owners never came back to get it, so she gave it to us. Its hanging over my computer right now (and its also hanging in one mans dream at MGM). My parents still own it, and they will give it to me as amoving out of the house present:lol: ....I heard it was he opening day Fun map, and it was only sold on the first day the park was open

I think it should last longer. We left the 14th and I don't think we'll get back there by mid July. Oh well, I've got other AP pins.
