NEWS: Potential Leak Causes Multi-Day Closure at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort

By Leave a Comment

During a recent visit to Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, we spotted a closure that may impact transportation.

Fort Wilderness Entrance

Every once in a while, we run into transportation detours, delays, and cancelations. Back in the spring, all boat transportation to Disney Springs was temporarily closed due to low water levels and construction. Even special events like runDisney races can cause transportation disruptions, so we often recommend reading up on any ongoing construction or road closures before your trip. You don’t want to be caught off guard on your way to an important reservation, after all!

“This Is the Most Ridiculous Concept Art I Have Ever Seen.” Disney Just Made Some BOLD Promises, but Can They Keep Them?

By 2 Comments

Imagine you’re the CEO of The Walt Disney Company. You’ve got a lot on your plate. There’s the ever-precarious state of Disney+, which gains and loses subscribers on a quarterly basis. There’s the Parks and Experiences division, with rising costs and a passionate fanbase. And then there’s your competition, who is building a brand-new theme park in your backyard, and no one will let you forget it. They don’t pay you the big bucks for nothing!

But since you’re an excellent CEO, you put on a brave face and try your best to give the people what they want. What do the people want? An answer to Epic Universe. A place for the Disney Villains. New attractions that are innovative yet nostalgic yet creative yet timeless. Easy, right? At D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney did its best to cater to fans. They unveiled a Monsters, INC. coaster that fans have been talking about for years. They announced a new nighttime parade to assuage the live entertainment fans. They even confirmed that a Villains Land will, in fact, be built “beyond Big Thunder Mountain” in Magic Kingdom. But despite the news, fans were quick to voice their concerns. Is it fair to judge so soon?
