Knowing that they are planning on completely refurbishing King Arthur's Carrousel from top to bottom, I've been surprised the past few times I've visited DL to see that the cover, which is in terrible terrible condition and needs serious work, has yet to be touched. Well, I guess the thing is going to be a bigger project than they first expected. If I remember correctly, other than splash, everything had been listed to reopen early summer. Now, the carrousel, according to the website, is down until at least NOVEMBER, and probably later but the site doesn't have info past mid-November.

Anyone know if they have hit some specific snags, like with the wheelchair retrofit, or is it simply proving to be in worse condition than they fist suspected?

When I asked a CM, he told me that it needed more TLC then they thought. :)

BTW, really cool title. :)

Well that all the rides are basically like older houses, try to fix one thing and you are forced to fix 12 more things in the process.
