Kyle Rupinski Park update for 10-9 and 10-10-09

Work walls and scaffolding are up in Fantasyland, mostly around Mrs. Pott's Cupboard. It's unclear if this is just scheduled maintenance on the Exterior or part of the recently announced Fantasyland refurbishment.

Space Mountain still has a lot going on, though it seems more work is being done outside. Worker's were hanging the "VIDEO ARCADE" sign, painting walls, and working around the main entrance and fast pass distribution areas. Workers were also working on a building across from Space Mountain (though it was probably a restroom area). There is still no pavement in front of the ride.






I took a ride on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, and noticed they changed the narration. Now they just talk about the rides in Tomorrowland, and features voice overs by Buzz Lightyear, Mickey Mouse, Stitch, and Roz (from Monster's Inc.). Worklights are on in Space Mountain, though there were walls up around the majority of the ride.






I also visited Epcot for some of the Food & Wine Festival. Because of the festival, Epcot, even on a week day, seemed a lot busier than it would normally have been. But it wasn't unbearable. Out of what I ate, I highly suggest the Beef Empanada's (Argentina), the Taco (Mexico City), and the Pork Pot Stickers (China). I didn't work my way past China. But next time I will for my park update.




Thanks Kyle on your update. Great Job
