New platform stuff





Well, that's all folks.

Just thought that I'd point something out. If you look at the full resolution picture of the map, you can see in the center of it, which is just to the right of the guy's arm, that there is the drawing of a 10 port manifold which connects to all of blowpop fountains that are in that circle. This would mean that that pump is their source for water and having an official map doesn't leave too much to question, although I did not see anything else that came off of the manifold that would explain the small attachment on the top. So the 10 port manifold is definitely being used for the blowpop fountains.

I'm receiving word that DCA's CALIFORNIA letters will have construction walls around them next week "for construction and maintenance." But don't get your hopes up -- they're not going away (yet). The work has to do with drainage issues, and not the DCA remodel.

Stay tuned...

Sorry, never posted in this thread before, so don't know if this is where this goes. Does anyone know what is happening in front of DCA? There seems to be a wall in front of the lettering ( Twitpic - Share photos on Twitter ). Are they beginning the gate construction, or just putting up the Halloween lettering? I don't remember them putting up walls in years past...

See above thanks for the picture, also its been mentioned that the Halloween letters go up over night.

I saw the same and forgot about the drainae post MG made.
Althouh the walls go up to but not around the letters. just a large area in front of them

but prob just drainage

I get so excited for BVS I jump the gun!

If they don't fix the drainage issue, when they remove the letters for the construction of BVS, the Matterhorn will collapse!

When they drained the lagoon at DCA, the Fun Wheel sank a good few feet! You can see its now underground. Everyone was so focused on the Matterhorn that they didnt even look at the Fun Wheel. Now you know why that camera was pointed at it for so long.

These are the most confusing posts I've read in quite some time...

[RocknGuitar]

Yeah, what's up with the Matterhorn? What does that have to do with anything?

There was a big urban myth that if the sub lagoon was ever drained that the Matterhorn would collapse.

Now if someone could only lay their hands on a set of CAD drawings......I am sure I am not alone in wanting to get CAD drawings you can email them to me I promise that they will only be used for good and I will not leak onto the net.

Hmm. Never heard that one. Wasn't Matterhorn supposed to get a loop at some point, also?

Ok, so the D23 Expo opens in about 40+ minutes. I really hope someone has an Iphone or other way to post some pics to this forum from the Parks part of the exhibit. I'm sitting in the Central time zone wishing I was in the Pacific time zone in a big way.

[Coast21]

Got a text saying that the expo will have a detailed model of carsland. Anyone who goes needs to take pics and post them asap! Please

[ChessurInWonderland]

Can't wait for pics, video, and any other information use die-hards can get our hands on from the Expo!

At first I was like: and then I was like:


What's next: Myths that we're going into some sort of weird global warming thing?
