But I went by there tonight (Friday night, Jan 13) at 9pm, and it wasn't lit up. I figure such lightings are usually done in conjunction with a grand opening. But won't it be lit up for the previews? Does anyone know more about this? I'm looking forward to seeing Everest from over the tops of the trees, all lit up at night.
