? About The Land

[Snoopygirl]

Will it be open by May 21st? I'm still confused about this one. Is the whole building closed and is this where Soarin' is??? I love the boat ride in this one!

The entire pavillion is currently closed, but is scheduled to reopen April 26th. The entrance for Soarin' will be inside the newly refurbished The Land pavillion. (Previews for Soarin' are currently being lead through a side entrance that bypasses pavillion itself.) Soarin' officially opens on May 5th. The Garden Grill Restaurant will reopen July 7th. The pavillion will sport some new theming and a new quick service restaurant (similar to the Sunshine Season Food Fair.) However, Living With The Land (the boat ride) is not supposed to change. Hope that helps!

Does anyone know if they will still have the "Behind the Seeds" tour when The Land re-opens??

That is the plan.

Does anyone know if Nestle will still have the cookie baking stand there. I sure hope so.

That is the plan.

Thanks! My Mother has her heart set on it and it's been closed during our last two trips.

No problem. I've always loved the land (despite being a bit bored with it simultaneously.) I think it reminds me of my Grandfather's farm. But don't expect the quiet ambiance to last through the changeover. I would expect the tour to reopen around the same time as Soarin'. I believe it's the work on the new queue that suspended the tour (not the pavillion's closure, at first.) If you take the tour, be sure to post a review somewhere on The DIS.

Oh, and here are some pics of the work in progress.

I will! My Mom is also mourning for the loss of the little garden shop on the downstairs level. She always buys something there, but it was closed the last time.
