Likely! There is usually less construction going into the summer months (or any peak seasons). That doesn't mean new things won't go under construction in September though.

Fair enough!

We were there last September and saw all the scrims down Main St, but we were hoping a great deal of the spruce up would be done and over before this coming December!

Remember, they tape the parade the first weekend of December. So I always count on them wanting everything fixed up and looking purty!

True... keep forgetting about that!

This is my first go at WDW for Christmas so I'm a fish out of water!

You just MADE MY DAY!!!! WooHOO! I would sooo love it if they do the diferent movie set Mickeys like DLR, but the FP alone is AWESOME! My youngest DS has moderate autism, and waiting to meet characters was a first just last August. We've NEVER been able to do it at MK b/c of the lines, even though he is a Mickey fanatic

We might miss this on our March trip (we head home 3/26/11), but we are doing a short SWW in May, so we'll hit it then

Regarding the fairies/pixies:

Does any one know if Terrance, Tink, Rosetta, & Vidia are the only ones appearing or do they switch out on different days?

TIA

Those are the four regular fairies (entertainment is subject to change). If one is unavailable, they may pull in a different fairy.

Video of the train passing the former Toon Town... not a great view, but interesting.

Someone should tell the conductor that it's not opening in a year... oops!

If there was any question on whether Storybook Cicus was going to open in 2012 or 2013, I think we have an answer!

Is that Mickeys house torn completely down inside that fence?

 

[think-like-tink]

Oh! thanks for that pic. We are going summer 2012 and this new sign pic has me excited!

Anyone know what they did with all the decor inside the house? I would LOVE to have had the glass houses in Minnies house.

Does anyone have any news as to what's going to happen to Mickey and Minnie's houses? I can't find anything about them.

Watch the video. The big piles of rubble are what is left of them.

 

[hollisterluva92]

I saw that as soon as I posted this......I am so beyond sad right now. I just don't understand why they destroyed such a great place for kids......they could have relocated it at least........it was such a big part of my childhood and I have a picture from every single year with me posing on top of the fabric from the sewing machine in Minnie's house.....a little piece of me just died inside. Hopefully Mouse Surplus will be able to grab a few of the decorations to sell, I will definitely try to snag something!

 

[stargazertechie]

On my last trip I was walking through Mickey and Minnie's houses. There was an adorable family with the little girl dressed in a Minnie dress out back in the Gazebo. I saw the parents taking turns taking pictures with the little girl. I offered to take a picture of all 3 of them, and the mom started crying- she knew it was their last chance to get a family picture in the House of Mouse

Still no official announcement from Disney, but Jack Spence (allears.net) indicates Snow White's Scary Adventures is closing early 2012.

As part of the Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland expansion, “Snow White’s Scary Adventures” will be closing permanently in early 2012.

The World According to Jack

Thanks for that info, looks like we'll be riding SWSA in a few weeks!

O.k. I've check both threads (this one and the one that was linked here) and I can't seem to find a video of the demolition or whatever video everyone is talking about. Can someone link it here for me? Yes I am a bit slow today!

Thanks!
