Anyone know if the Disney Store in Asheville NC is still open?

Howdy!
We are getting away this weekend WITHOUT the kiddos - it's our 10th anniversary! We are going to Asheville NC - I'm sure we will do some shopping while up there - is the Disney Store in Asheville still there? (I think it said Asheville Mall?) I'd love to see if there are any goodies that I can get for our trip this summer, plus I have two birthdays coming up!

I tried to google it but the list I came up with didn't look "official", thus not updated. It did list the Asheville store, but it also listed the Charleston store which closed in Fall of 2003. I've heard so many have closed. My little one was devastated when ours closed - it was her favorite store to go visit in the mall - so it was the carrot that got her to behave while shopping (if you are good - mommy will take you to the Disney store - and it wasn't necessarily to buy anything - it was just to look at everything - all the decorations and window displays) - she was very concerned about where Mickey had gone. LOL

Also - if you are from or familiar with Asheville - any restaurant/shopping recommendations? ANy must-sees?

Thanks!

If you like ribs you need to go eat at Damons. They have very good ribs. The Biltmore house is nice to see. Just wondering around in downtown is nice. Lots of shops to see. I hope this helps.
