Walt Disney World Florida

We're going to WDW in about 3 weeks' time.

I''ve just seen on a website that the Pirates of the Caribbean and the Liberty Riverboat are closed for a while, and that the Tarzan Rocks show has closed for good.

Have any of you visited in the last couple of months who can give me an up-to-date list of all attractions that will be closed during our stay - May 19 - Jun 2.

Failing that, can anyone recommend a website with the right info on? I have looked at several Disney-based sites, including the official WDW one, but can't seem to find a complete list.

Many thanks.

http://www.thedibb.co.uk/ someone might be able to help to on here :o)

Wow, thanks both of you for such prompt replies!

Metz, I've used the DIBB website a few times, it was there that I first got an inkling that Pirates was closed, thanks for suggesting; it's a very useful site.

In A Pickle, I especially appreciate your time spent searching the WDW website - I feel such a lazy so-and-so now, cos I had a look on there for quite a while and lost the will to live, so gave up! I'm never that impressed with that website, to say it's Disney 'n'all.

17 days and counting..... ;-)

Thanks again - Diane

To my mind Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure are much better theme parks than Walt Disney.

Spudqueen have to agree, love Busch Gardens too :o)

Pirates of the Caribbean isn't that good anyway. There are much better rides than that in WDW and Islands of Adventure - you'll have a great time without going on that ride in particular.

Sorry, Spudqueen & Metz - you're talking to total Disney Freaks here!!!

We did go to Universal years ago(before Islands of Adventure opened) and loved it, but our kids are Disney all the way, and proud of it!!

We're taking them to Seaworld (despite my protests!) and Kennedy Space Center, which I LOVE, but apart from that, it'll be Disney, Disney and more Disney!

Thanks for all you advice & comments. I'd send you a cyber postcard if I knew how!

Well Xanderma, you can send e-postcards from somewhere in EPCOT! You can take your photo and adapt it on the computer, it was great fun.
I am also a big Disney fan, but enjoyed the universal parks as well.

Pirates of the Carribbean is closed so they can re-do it, and make it more like the films. Jack Sparrow will be making an appearance in it!

Aw, shuks, I guess that just means we'll have to go back again next year to check it out!

I'm going in just under 2 weeks!!!! Have you been before?? I've been using -

http://www.wdisneyw.co.uk

It's a great website and seems to have info on just about everything.

Sorry, i didn't realise your question was posted on 01.05.06!!! I put WDW in the search and your question come up - anyway, did you have a great time!!!!!!

[xanderma]

Thanks for your answer anyway!! I thought I was cracking up there for a minute.

Yes thanks, we did have a great time - and yes, we HAVE booked to return next year.

Hope you have a fantastic time, best place on earth so far as our family's concerned!
