It’s not uncommon for Disney to CHANGE rides for a limited time!
Disney California Adventure

There are some smells that instantly transport you to another time and place. We can pretty much all recognize the distinct yet familiar smell of crayons, and it doesn’t feel like summer until we get our first whiff of fresh-cut grass. In Disney World, they make scent into a SCIENCE! From attractions to parade floats, tasty (and stinky) smells follow you throughout the parks.

EPCOT
Rides will go down around Disney World for a variety of reasons: sometimes there’s technical difficulties, or sometimes the closure is longer for a scheduled refurbishment. But today, we noticed a few rides had closed unexpectedly in EPCOT.
Even the MOST classic Disney attractions aren’t immune from receiving changes!
Haunted Mansion
