Fantasyland Expansion

[NaCler]

Here are some good pics of the expansion from Dumbo's point of view. Also, there is a pic in there of what Mark and Len were too scared to try during their trip in July.

WOW!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!! Those are very COOL!! It looks like Disney is really stating to go into overdrive! Is there a longer que time for Dumbo because you can see so much of what's going on over the fence?

I hope not! The queue for Dumbo is long enough

Only issue is that the person being lifted in that case weighs a lot less than me. It was towards the end of the vacation, and as you saw from our dining, I ate very well

Thanks for the pictures and it is great to see the Fantasyland Expansion is preogressing at full speed yet. MAYBE if we get lucky they can run ahead of schedule

Trust me when I say this, the crane they are using for TLM is a lot bigger in person!

MadEye, do you have a vantage point of any of those cranes from where you live? How far away can you still see them?

Well, if it weren't for the trees blocking the view I would. Can't see much, but I know where to look.

There was a video on youtube from Dumbo by Jeff Lange. Didn't look like they had done much except for move some dirt piles around.

Behind that big dirt pile is the vertical construction of The Little Mermaid. Why else would that huge crane be there? Not to mention the vertical construction I saw last week on the Beauty and the Beast Be Our Guest restaurant.

I've seen cranes erected and just sitting for months with no progress on what is supposed to be going up. It's called union labor.

Here is the video.....

Gotta love that union labor......
But in all seriousness, sometimes in construction you just gotta get the big equipment set up and leave it for a while. When it's needed, it's needed, but at all other times it just sits there. It's much more cost-effective to leave it in place for when you need it rather than setting it up and tearing it down over and over again. So we just don't know what's going on, I guess....

We need out insider to help us out ~ oh Jacca! Can your inside sources give us any dirt on the...well, dirt pile?!

[Jacca5660]

I'll see if I can get any dirt on the dirt! I liked writing that!
