Where we left off last, oh, whenever that was, it’s been too long for me to keep track.
As a part of reinventing Epcot, Plan Alpha, we’re taking it as read that Soarin’ Over the World exists, but has shifted it’s entrance from The Land, where it does not belong, into World Showcase. Given it’s world-spanning nature, it serves as a fantastic “introduction” to World Showcase. We’ve started to discuss idea of creating a new, large pavilion in World Showcase, themed to the 1964 NY Worlds Fair. The new pavilion would add a permanent festival space (to be addressed later), and added a year-round attraction to the space by moving Carousel of Progress (and reverting it back to it’s Worlds Fair version, complete with Sherman Brothers song). I then teased something about It’s a Small World, and promptly disappeared for a couple weeks.
