Losing it, eh? Did the Exam Week From Hell get you down that bad? :wink: :D

On top of everything else it might have. I'll email you later tonight.

Has anybody seen the looks of the mermaid attraction building in DCA? if the exterior theming for the one in WDW is on the same level we will be in for a treat!

I sure hope WDW gets something somewhat close to DL. The building for the attraction looks awesome! It's looking even nicer now that there is some paint going on :D

I thought from the concept art that WDW's Mermaid ride was to have an exterior based on Prince Eric's castle. :?: :?: :?:

You are correct about that. I am just hoping the attention to detail on the building is as good as it is for DCAs.

Me too ~ sometimes it seems like WDW gets shorted a bit :(

The permits for the rock work "packages" for inside and outside the TLM building have been filed so we should see soon (I hope).
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.”

Permits I believe are visible to the public through the OC Registrar. The rock work will hopefully be visible from over the walls when it commences.

I enjoy taking the CM Bus every day to get to work to see what additions have been added to the FLE. Though it will be boring once they finish all the exterior work and are busy working inside haha
I know this is probably your first flight...and it's mine too...ha, ha

Rain upon that planet Earth. And they rain ... and rain ... and rain. The deluge.

Is there any way you can peek inside the buildings or is everything strictly off limits if you aren't part of the construction crew?

Yes it is! CM's have been warned that being in the construction area can get you fired!

Update: There is now a large "advertisement" for the Storybook Circus and the only real thing I noticed was that it said 2012. I'll try and get a better look in the not too distant future.

Oh, it's on their top 5 to do list. TDO just doesn't want to spend the money on JC and spend it elsewhere. Seem it's always stuck at number 5... :evil:

Are there still movie rumors out there? Maybe they are waiting.
tom hanks and tim allen to star in a "night at the museum" treatment of the ride. here's the link: http://www.wdwinfo.com/news/Television_ ... e_film.htm makes you wonder if there really are no creative minds left writing in hollywood. i sure hope they come up w/ something more original than this before actual production time.
