on that note above.. does anyone know how much land Disney owns in France?

That's a good question. I know they have land available but I'm not sure how much.

Rivers of Light dining packages will open soon for May 2017. The show will open before that though.

The current theory is the Disney webpage in question was a holdout from the previous ROL offering in May 2016. The page has since been removed. I think we will see ROL dining packages this year.

That makes sense. I agree with you that we will see packages sooner than later. Once ROL is live and running smoothly/regularly, they'll want to cash in on dinner packages.

Yep that's what is happening. The dining page was also taken down again.

Dinosaur refurb being extended until November 20th...

Sorry - couldn't resist. Actually, we were going to be there right after the refurb ended, so I was pretty curious to see if they were truly fixing up this ride to make improvements. It's a ride to me that COULD be very entertaining, but the way it operates so in the dark makes it rather dull in my view. Won't miss it much - but WILL miss that it would take away people from other rides.

I think the extension could be good because that would mean they are doing some serious work to the ride.

Someone else mentioned they had a FP that hadn't been cancelled yet. I would just keep watching to see what happens with this.

Ours for the OCT 19th is still there as well. I am not going to switch it until I get notice but really disappointed another major attraction being closed for our trip.

I'm feeling less and less positive about us getting to ride BTMRR on our trip. First the treehouse refurb gets extended, now this? Ugh...
