ok guys, here is all the latest info i got about the MK and some WDW news as well, enjoy...
DIAMOND HORSESHOE SALOON REVIEW.
Bad news.....it is 100% going to close. I confirmed that by upper park management. Feb 1st.
Good News....MK entertainment has been listing to guest feedback, and what the guests are saying is they LOVE the castle show, and the fact that the charters interact with guests after the show. So, as a result, they are in the planing stages of a new, character based show, themed to the ''frontier" WITH LOTS AND LOTS of character and guest interaction. There is no timeline on when this new show may open, and current plans call for a meet and great with the Toy Story characters for now, of course not buzz himself, but woodey and the gang.
EDIT>>> Now with the Country bears gone, Woody and the Gang have been making appearences out infront to the CBJ. This supports the idea that they will be going into the DHSR building soon.....
BTW, the kids seem to like them better then the bears, but the adults do not....who will win.....????
Tom Sawyer Island....for the last 3 weeks and for about 2 more, the main Island dock has been closed and under Rehab. They are simply refurbing the fences, and benches and walls ect ect, nothing major. For now the rafts are docking at the ''Huck Dock'', located near the bridge to the fort. This dock is generally only used in emegencies, or when we increase form 2 rafts to 3 rafts, during Easter and X-mas.
Splash Photo....still under rehab till the end of Feb, but you can still buy photos in the mean time.
Pecos Bills.....will be closed mid week next week for floor rehabing. one to two days max.
Epcot
Spain....its gone.
M:S...the wall that was in the back, keeping CM from getting to close, has been removed, but from the back, the building just looks like the back of anyother attraction, with a loading dock and emegency exits. Nothing too exciteing. Oh yeah, and its going to open Sunday...............just kidding....sorry i had to do it!
Resort News
Pop Century.....still apears to have 0 work going on there, however one of the swiming pools has been filled with water, but others remain dry. Also 0 work going on at ''phase 2 of this project. Still only the main building and just one other up. Where as phase 1 looks from the outside, to be all done. But from what i here, the rooms are far from done.
Shades of Green....looks like the first few stories of the at least 2 buildings are up. Still a long way to go.
Disney Vacation Club at the Institute.....ground now all cleared, looks like fundations are about to be poored. Some old Villias remain, and appear to be staying, but unsure if they will be used or not.
Bonnet Creek....main road into complex complete, construction on intersection to merge it into the Disney comlpex is going on now.
Epcot Center Drive.....the bridge near DD has been down to one lane for over 2 months now, due to extensive damage. These lane closures will continue to at least the end of Spring. SEEK ALT ROUTES during busy times, as this 3 lane road is now down to just 1.
