Pirates of the Caribbean Under Construction, KSC: Launch Day

Hi Everyone! Starting March 28th, I will be working in the Canadian Pavilion at EPCOT for a year, as a cultural representative, participating in the W.D.W. International Program. If you are ever visiting WDW in the next year, be sure to email me and drop by EPCOT's Canadian Pavilion to say hi. Thank you for visiting my site, and I hope you enjoy my Florida experience, as much as I do.

Pirates of the Caribbean Under Construction, KSC: Launch Day

There was rumours of cast previews on June 29th, so I headed there before work just in case. That of course was not true. :) I still managed to see the new Captain Jack Sparrow show that is put on right in front of the attraction. Workers could still be seen working on the outside:

The resort is getting ready for the 4th of July:

I got a text message from my friend that works at the MK, saying that there would be previews happening today only (the 30th) until 7 pm. I rushed to the MK, and was able to make in on the LAST boat of the night for the cast member previews. It was great to be one of the first to see the attraction, and all of the new added special effects. When we got off the ride, we saw them still trying to finish up the exit, so we had to take a special path out of the building. :) I'm really happy with what they have done with the ride. The next day (the 1st) I was up at 530 am to catch the bus to the Kennedy Space Center. Shanan joined me for the mission, and the deluxe breakfast at McDonald's. :)
