Hey guys, going to Florida from December 2-16. I was wondering what's new since last September. Last time we were there was in September 2008 and we saw a lot of pumpkins for halloween. Any help would be appreciated.

Space Mountain got refurbished, and there's the Tiana's Jubilee show, and Pixie Hollow. Off the top of my head, that's all I can think of.

I thought that this was interesting: it's a list of things WDW's been spending money on, fixing and whatnot:

When we were at WDW in September we had supper at Pinocchio Village Haus. The food was good. Yummy!

HOLY SHIT. I love that place. They had tasty "wet burritos"

Yes, the wet burritos are muy bueno! I wonder how much, if at all, the menu will change, though- maybe it'll just be expanded seating and similar things?

It appears that a new pizzeria will be coming to Epcot's Italy pavilion. A construction permit has been filed for construction of the new pizzeria, naming the Patina Group as the owner/operator of the facility. Patina also owns and operates Tutto Italia.

Studio Backlot Bulldozed???

I actually wouldn't mind this one bit. I never was on the Backlot Tour back in the day, when it actually was a Backlot Tour, but from what I've heard, the current tour pales in comparison. It's always something that we'll only do if we're walking by and have time- we never are like, "Ohhh, we can't forget to do the Backlot Tour today!".

More rides can only be a good thing for DHS- it can use them. And YES PLEASE to a Monsters, Inc. coaster- I've thought that the door ride would make a great ride ever since the movie came out.

I don't know, I enjoyed the tour. It wasn't very exciting though.... And a Monsters, Inc. coaster would be awesome!

We saw Tiana's Jubilee show. We loved it. We were standing at the spot where the boat stopped to put on the show.
