Crazy to believe this won't open for nearly a year.

It'll be open closer than that.

It'll be open closer than that.

Hope so. They can get this done by December if they put effort into it.

Ive heard pretty early into 2014. And from what ive heard they have had the trains for a little while now, but I could be wrong also.

Yeah I've heard one (maybe a mock up) has been in the station for at least 6-7 months. Not to mention I'm just gonna say February 2014 for the opening...

Thanks for the heads up HTF. I'm glad the early rush will be out of the way before Summer.

Thats around the same time i heard it would be opening also. Working on something for this also but not sure its going to pan out or not :thumbs:

Earliest seems to be Spring 2014 from various announcements. Of course, that could mean from March until June.

That cart looks a lot bigger than I had imagined!

Update from yesterday:

 

[maxairmike]

They really want that Mermaid shop open on the back side of the mountain.

They want it open, but are still moving really slow on it. And behind schedule.

Thanks for the update Bri. I visit MK once a year, usually in February/March; it'd be refreshing to know that this will be open.

I hear Fairytale Hall is supposed to be open later this year. As a parent of a little girl, I have to ask, has there been any word on who or how many princesses will be in there?

Their latest update said this:

The castle-like entrance will feature walls of stone and stained glass windows opening up into a large gallery – an airy space with a high ceiling – where portraits of the Disney princesses adorn the walls. When it’s time for their royal audience, guests will proceed to one of four elegantly finished chambers to meet their favorite Disney princess. Each chamber accommodates up to two Disney princesses.

Looks like it'll never be finished!

Thanks. So essentially Fairytale Hall will be capable of holding 8 princesses. Whether or not they'll utilize all 4 chambers regularly is TBD. Love or hate it, MnGs are essentially attractions at WDW. With that said, if they're gonna have them, I'd prefer them well-themed like Fairytale Hall, instead of just some bland backdrop.

Thanks for the update Briman. That's the most changes I've seem in a long while. It will be nice to be done with the construction in that area.

I was thinking of heading out to get an update, but doesn't look too different.
