Well as Briman and I just found out, Indy will be down for a four month refurb starting September 4th through December 7th.

Damn it!

This has to be the longest any George Lucas creation has gone unchanged.

I've heard it's in rough shape so while I'm upset it's down during my visit, it's apparently very much needed.

I'm not. CTX did have the downtime for a few months during the transition to Dinosaur, but that's not saying the ride isn't in rough shape. Most rides with individually moving cars/trains usually have one in cyclical maintenance and Dinosaur is no exception, but that doesn't mean the cars aren't getting rough/old/out of shape.

Well, you guys discuss that Uni doesn't tell what is going on with the new potter so that people don't put off their trips. This is exactly what Disney has done, yet they at least gave you a months heads up. They don't want you to cancel.

It's weird that ioa is one of my favorite parks in fact port of entry is one of my very favorite places of any park and yet I couldn't name any ride at uni that I would be sad about if it was closed on our trip yet I could name many Disney rides I would be sad about.

Not sure what that means really.. Maybe I just love ioa for the well themed lands not necessarily the rides. And the more I think about it I guess I used to be sad if dragons was down which just means I'm getting old I guess :( :)

Apparently the boulder scene isn't even working. Kind of ruins probably a big time moment of the ride and wouldn't be nearly as much fun to experience without it.
