This is great news about Storybook and Casey Jr. I'm doing a happy dance right now! I love Storybook at night and I can't wait to see the new Tangled addition!

Enjoy Casey Jr. and Storybookland! I love them and enjoyed them during my May 2025 trip. Unsure when I am planning another trip to DL but I am glad they are reopening.

Just wanted to say thank you to you for keeping us informed, even though you're kinda off DL at the moment. I always appreciate your posts!

Just do not know when I will return! Definitely in 2026. It is fun to see what is going on! Living on the East Coast is far away from DL closer to WDW but I prefer DL. DL is better. And WDW Magic Kingdom getting rid of Rivers of America and such. Plus I do not like WDW Fantasyland as compared to DL. Florida is too big. DL and DCA are smaller but have more attractions than WDW.

My final thoughts on BTMR. We rode it a total of eight times during our trip. Waterfall was on half of the time. The misters make it better when the water is off. Definitely an improvement! My wife noted that goat is "fluffier", and when I took a closer look, it definitely has been replaced/modified. It looks great. The overall ride seems smoother and I would have to say the upgrades/improvements are all terrific. 10 out of 10!

You guys are convincing me to give it a try this time! It got so it was just so jerky and rattling, it wasn't fun for my old bones! But now I am encouraged!

Yay, now if we can just wander up to Trader Sams around 9am and get a walk up for brekkie, my holiday will be perfect!

I'm going next month and I'm incredibly excited to see like everything open for once! All of my trips I've on in the past year or so I always miss a few rides.

Appears that Indy is going down on 12/1 and reopens 12/5.

 

[JerrodDragon89]

You had ONE job Disney

Sorry for those affects but I assume this is a must for the ride...no other reason to close it during the busiest season

Thanks. @Irish Duck I had it opening on 12/4. I will update.

 

[mich311e]

I just looked at the Hours & Events calendar and see Indy closed on 12/1, 12/2, and 12/3. It is not on the refurb list on 12/4.

 

[Irish Duck]

Yeah. They just updated it again.

 

[joseph821]

Yeah. They just updated it again.

To what it was originally ugh!!

 

[Piscus]

Dang, I hope they keep it at the three days at most. Or push it back to January entirely!
