Ok, just checked disney./com - and Spalsh doens't show to be under refurb there past the 27th of this motnh. PHEW PHEW PHEW! You trying to give me a heart attack, Doobie? Not nice since those are spreading like wildfire on my team at work lately! lol

Originally Posted By Labuda I think you just did it to scare the poohsticks out of me! Anyhow, thanks for updating your page there, adn thanks for the link to your refurb schedule. I'm so very used to check Deb's site for EVERYTHING that's not on the boards here, that it's hard for me to train myself to look at what you all oost here. Especially now that you LIVE at WDW, I am totally trying to make more of an effort to use LP resources when I think to do it.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros Great pictures, as always. I really hope that during the rehab on Splash, they are able to replace the grass on the building. It's looking especially flat on the left side, but that may be because they removed the plants for the rehab (at least I hope so). Any reason that they don't have a little wall blocking the view from the front? The briar patch looks pretty bad without any water in it, and I hope they don't regularly leave it like that.

Originally Posted By Doobie It had very limited hours before. It would close pretty early but it was definitely open sometimes. But apparently it's just closed now. Doobie.
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey It's a shame about the Fountain View. I enjoyed having breakfast there, and they had delicious desserts. I never understood why it wasn't open longer hours. It would be a great place to grab a snack before Illuminations.

Originally Posted By MPierce That would explain why I never catch it open, I never hit Epcot until after lunch. That's prime real estate, it's just a shame to see it empty all the time.

Over the holidays, if I remember right, it was in bloom with pointsettas and other flowers that appear to be replaced. Give it a few days and it will be in bloom again
Originally Posted By danyoung Seems to me that every time I've seen workmen working on that flower bed, they're planting already blooming flowers. Is this not the case any more?
Originally Posted By TDLFAN I am glad to see the MK so empty after such horrendous crowds over the holidays. Also glad the horrendous High School Musical show is off the MK and being shipped to MGM. Finally, much to my delight, glad to see Splash closed for rehab concidering it hasn't been that long since they repainted it and somewhat freshened it up.

Am I missing something?
