SG - but for a good reason...

Post by Malpass93 » Mon Jan 05, 2009 8:46 am

Well, on a recent visit to Epcot, I'd decided to see for myself the situation regarding Wonders of Life. 'Twas dark, with no-one around, Universe of Energy quiet, with everyone in the vicinity headed for Mission: SPACE. So I shuffled past the potted plants and benches, then ran to the entrance. Locked, of course. So I took out my camera, and got some shots. Didn't get busted, no-one about. Would have feigned innocence if anyone was about, though. The attached pictures show WoL's predicament best.

Anyone got any news (be that official, CM knowledge/rumours or snooping around WoL)?

I remember the last time I was there, December of 2007 I think, it was open and I got to do the stuff in there. Some of it was cool, but in general it was just not worth the time spent in there, I think it really needs an update.

It is used for special events these days. Displays and things like that are set up in there. It was used like that for both the Flower and Garden Festival and the Food and Wine Festival.

Feigned innocence after squeezing by large planters and ropes? HA! Planters and ropes are there for a reason, please don't go through them again. This time they were just blocking off a building but the next time they could be blocking off a hazard or something. I've been tempted to do the same thing but haven't because of the barriers that are there.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Apologies.

You're lucky. The last person that shuffled by the plants and benches stepped into one of the punji stake pits.

There's always one who's unfortunate...

Watch out for the lizards in particular...they'll bite you if you try to help them out of a resort building...
