Do you think this will continue through to next week? I’ll be there next week!!

I was so mad, I was there on December 4th, and on Friday the 7th, and it wasn’t open either of those days. It seemed far from it, you could hear hammering and banging behind the construction walls they have put up……

Well they can still do soft openings during construction… from people who have gone on it… so far i haven’t heard much good… kinda makes me nervous…. but atleast they have till feb to finalize it

The cast members here say they don’t know anything about it being open. EPCOT is Thursday for me so I’ll keep you all posted…

Cool i’m at Epcot all day Thursday…

Folks,

I heard it straight form the horse’s mouth: Dec 4. I’m sorry if you are disappointed. We are going down next month—hope it is open by then.

It was totally open on Wednesday the 12th from about 3 PM to somewhere around 7 PM. You could tell it is still not complete…
