The track isn't done yet... is it???
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Not the entire thing as far as I know but they're making really good progress with it.

Wow there has been a lot of progress made within the past week. Good to see how everything is quickly coming together. It should be interesting to track the Fantasyland expansion in WDW in a similar fashion.

I wonder if there's a site that shows the progress for WDW. I only know of two sites that are for West coast theme parks.

Doesn't MiceChat cover some WDW stuff? I am totally spoiled by their construction coverage for DL!

I think in the Weekend Update sections they do. Dateline Disneyland on Mondays is usually for DLR.

It is a spectacular show ~ I'm sure you'll like it! It is good to see that they are somewhat listening to what people desire and holding the show longer. It would be nice to have a new show in there at some point though...

Eventually, yes I think a new show would be called for. However I am thrilled that Aladdin will be staying for a while longer! I think what makes that show work is that it is constantly updated with jokes based on current events.

The last time we saw the show (in October, I think) the Genie was poking fun at the whole Jon & Kate situation and I think he even threw a Kanye joke in there.
