Show me more updates, please.

Hello all.

We’ve spent a great deal of time visiting The Fort in past Januarys, and created an enormous amount of childhood memories for our children. We have not been back in almost three years now and I do miss the fort. My two big kids learned to swim at the fort and my youngest is now asking when we are going to teach her. There is only one place I know that is perfect for teaching swimming! I know a place…. I’m considering a last minute trip toward the later half of January and curious about the updates and construction. I see there is a good bit of construction around the meadows & down at the settlement. If you’re currently there now, I’d love to see how things are coming along around the pool & dock. Also, does the construction work distract from the holiday mindset while at the meadows? Another thread shows long yellow construction materials around the canal. Is that still there? Are you able to canoe around the canal?

Any updated details, photos, and changes I need to be made aware of are much appreciated. The daddy daughter dumbo photos are long overdue.

We are also making a last minute trip to Disney, Fort Wilderness on Feb 1.we will only be there for four nights, and doing one park. Then up to Fort Laudrdalemfor a two week cruise. Thought it would be good to leave the cold weather behind for February!!

@bjschil it just seems wrong to tolerate a full Midwest winter doesn’t it? A cruise sounds lovely. We spent last February in Maui. That is wonderful to hear you and Bill will be there around the same time. I need to gather more info, see what window reservations we can get, and go from there.

These threads are helpful. Check the last 2-3 pages or so of each for recent stuff. First one is on the Zero Entry Pool being built in the Meadow field behind the Meadow Pool. Second one is the bland-but-offensive-eyesore behind Pioneer Hall.
