They'll have put orbitron all up by the time the summer holiday starts

I can't wait to see those planets spinning again!

Hey guys,
I'm a little confused right now cause i saw so many pics with green fences around almost everything.I'm glad to see everything being refurbished, don't get me wrong! And work on the castle was shorter than expected, but I'm a little afraid what the situation is going to be in august... Does anybody know more details? Thanks for your help!!!

Josh · July 08, 2011, 09:21:43 PM

I don't think you need to worry, particularly, when you go then.

I think we've probably been making it sound worse than it actually is. I think the only things in August that will be behind the walls will be The Old Mill, The Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse and the pirate ship in Adventureland next to skull rock. Oh, and the second floor of the castle may be closed, too.

There's probably a few things that I've forgotten, but they'll be really minor.

in august, there'll be very few if any ride closures

It looks fantastic. People are saying on MiceChat that one month from now the planets will break and stop spinning again. I hope that isn't true, but let's come back at the end of August 2011 and see if it is.

Josh · July 14, 2011, 05:56:32 PM

Ha ha. I think they're just joking.

It probably got a new motor that's more reliable, so I don't think that's going to happen.

Anyway, it looks like it's spinning really fast. If they used to be like that before, then it must be ages since they were last working. XD

peter · July 14, 2011, 07:02:23 PM

agreed, that middle one is really going. does it do it none stop or during ride cycles? because non stop must take up a lot of power.

Quote from: "Alan"It looks fantastic. People are saying on MiceChat that one month from now the planets will break and stop spinning again. I hope that isn't true, but let's come back at the end of August 2011 and see if it is.

They already stopped spinning after just a few days. (Anyone know the definite reason why?)

Has The Old Mill ever looked this bright before or is a new colour scheme?

I think it's new. I was watching a video of it from about 1994, recently, and it lucked the same as it does today.

The new colour scheme is nice. It fits in a lot better with Fantasyland.
