I heard it speculated that Splash needs to stay running until MMRR is up to full capacity. That might push the closure into February.I almost wonder if they put it off at DLR due to the number of ride breakdowns we've been seeing... maybe they need all the uptime they can get?
The reason why you didn't know it was based off Song of the South, is because it really isn't!Oh don't get me wrong, I completely understand the reasoning behind retheming. I just have issues adjusting to change! I didn't even realize it was based off Song of the South until I was in college. But yeah...not the best choice and pretty odd.
You're right, there are so many great opportunities I hope they take advantage of! The exterior will definitely be a shock (but lets hope in a good way).
