it was just down in early August for around 5 days. we had to add an extra day on to our trip just so we could ride it in the morning before we headed home. the explosion/steam effect did not work on any of the times we rode it, though.
goofy's in DCA is also closed, those are my 2 favorite rides but we'll find plenty of other things to do. glad we had AP's a few years ago - we are less stressed about having to do everything, and still have not done everything yet...
