Where is the new Nemo ride going to be located? For some reason I've been "picturing" it in my head in the water where they do Fantasmic.. now I know that's not right! lol Can someone fill me?

It is in Tomorrowland next to the Monorail station. Strictly speaking, the ride is not "new". It is a refurb of the old Submarine Voyage ride which lasted from the 50's until 1998/1999 when it was closed. The "sub lagoon" sat vacant for several years, and then was revived as the Submarine Voyage with Nemo. It was originally budgeted at $40-50 million, but in the end cost $80 million. Just for the refurb. Compare that to the entire construction of Expedition Everest at WDW which cost $100 million.

Okay, now I know! I was way off. I'm glad its kinda to the "back" of the park though, or far to the side I should say. Yes, I'm bitter about the ride b/c I don't want all the crowds, lol! Watch it end up being our new favorite!
