welcome everyone out of the whoo here I
0:03
have returned to Central Florida behind
0:07
me and over that shoulder is Epcot's
0:10
parking lot formerly Epcot Center and
0:14
now they have capitalized all the
0:16
letters once again taking it back semi
0:18
old-school and check out some
0:20
construction updates as well as what is
0:23
new here on property we are into 2020
0:28
I'm inviting you to join me shall you
0:30
they stay behind that yellow line hooks
0:33
the tram is right behind me
0:35
they're more dirty please live or
0:37
boarding and everyone on board sit back
0:41
and hold tight driver we are clear to
0:44
dispatch and we definitely faster to
0:46
walk if you want to watch the trailer
0:49
even let me know it's faster to walk but
0:52
I figured it'd be fun to take the tram
0:53
let's go up loop around me normally
1:08
not too busy yet judging by the amount
1:08
of cars in a lot
1:30
we're loads of
1:36
oh wow security is over here now that's
1:39
where you go through and get your bags
1:40
checked in just a few months I've been
1:41
gone there have been a lot of changes
1:43
here a lot of changes well I guess more
1:45
like two months I've been gone but still
1:47
have the Pass Holder line this is a
1:49
little different you cannot walk
1:51
directly in front of spaceship earth it
1:53
is completely blocked off it's almost as
1:55
if leave a legacy never existed at this
1:58
point erased current guide map is as
2:03
follows I have it lined up almost had it
2:05
lined up perfectly this must be a new
2:07
slogan the world awaits Here I am
2:09
certainly looking forward to the
2:11
revamped fountain that will be where I'm
2:13
currently standing and this is a view I
2:16
never get tired of first things first I
2:19
need to stop in that store to the right
2:20
and get a new Magic Band I forgot mine
2:22
there's some cast members down here
2:24
directly have some directional arrow I
2:26
was letting you go either to the left or
2:29
to the right never in all my years have
2:34
I not been able to meander over that
2:37
direction that is a sight to behold went
2:42
with the figment option but there was a
2:44
problem linking it to my past so got a
2:47
step into guest services real quick got
2:49
the band issue rectified the people that
2:51
are flowing out are coming out from the
2:54
attraction this angle looks different
2:56
with the exception of a character
2:58
meet-and-greet up in this section
2:59
there's not really a whole lot going on
3:01
this cast members they are alerting the
3:03
guests has to be go to be rerouted
3:06
around the other two directions which is
3:08
kind of exciting because over here used
3:10
to be a backstage area now it is a guest
3:14
region
3:22
move that thing I will be taking this
3:22
path you see before me that I've never
3:24
seen nor documented prior and by the way
3:28
there goes the mono
3:41
bring on a breath on that one wasn't
3:41
ready for it wasn't ready for that long
3:43
winded incredible is so there goes that
3:48
the traffic and jam inators uncharted
3:52
territory to say the least I've never
3:57
been back here at least in this
3:59
particular area and along the sections
4:02
are promotions for some of the
4:03
attractions in this area like journey to
4:05
imagination and the Living Seas plenty
4:08
of things up their sleeves I would say
4:11
the future here is going to be a
4:12
fantastic one oh the janitors I said
4:24
terminators I work too
6:32
just to give some perspective on what
6:32
you're looking at on the left there that
6:33
dismantled building is where club cool
6:36
used to be referred to as the party zone
6:39
where you could get beverages of the you
6:42
know coca-cola from around the world and
6:45
different tastes for free little sample
6:47
cups and that has been removed as well
6:50
as in the center was the the larger
6:52
fountain on this opposite side there's
6:54
one but still going to remain on the
6:56
front side entrance of spaceship earth
6:58
but on this back portion it is going
7:02
away and pretty much looks like it has
7:04
already gone away there's also a stage
7:07
there and electric umbrella is off there
7:10
in the distance kinda to the right even
7:12
though that building is gonna stick
7:14
around the restaurant is not and then to
7:17
the far right Mouse Kearse has been
7:20
temporarily moved and will be getting a
7:22
huge revamp this entire portion is going
7:27
to definitely considerably look
7:29
different in a year or two or maybe even
7:32
sooner good things to come moving into
7:36
frame very slowly
7:48
Rahman
7:49
and swooping past that iconic spaceship
7:55
earth it's almost like a little piece of
7:58
my 80s heart has
8:06
disappeared I am excited about what's to
8:06
come
8:07
it's very unusual looking at the stuff
8:10
got to be honest this as I stare at it
8:13
kind of hard to wrap my head around this
8:16
and even this little he's in this little
8:19
path it's kind of messing with my head a
8:23
little bit
8:43
even the start of the huge logo here on
8:43
the ground is obscured you can see kind
8:47
of where it begins and then goes
8:49
completely into that courtyard for now
8:51
that's it's also covered now on the side
8:54
near test track where a lots taking
8:57
place over here as well you know kind of
8:59
over to the left of what I'm looking at
9:01
the facilities on this side are also
9:03
being revamped and some topiaries have
9:06
been placed down there the entryway into
9:08
what will be once again mouse gears its
9:11
temporary home straight ahead there you
9:13
can even see they placed a sign up
9:16
towards the top for now that's where
9:19
it's gonna be located usually a bustling
9:21
thoroughfare through this but you can
9:23
see that with the land pavilion kind of
9:25
peeking up there temporary detour for
9:27
now just for now you are your old school
9:30
what do you think about all the changes
9:32
this taking place that's great
9:33

9:35

9:58

10:01
either one of the two it's not it's not
10:02
what I'm used to seeing normal wonders
10:05
of life of ilium which will be turning
10:06
into the play pavilion is obscuring the
10:09
view of the new ride section where the
10:12
coaster for guardians will be behind it
10:14
space themed restaurant will also be
10:17
taking place and it's going to be
10:18
located right back in there you can see
10:21
where the pathway was and will be again
10:23
it's interesting that Ellen's energy
10:24
adventure is gone but this tree still
10:27
stands strong in fact there's a play
10:30
pavilion advertisement right there as
10:32

10:34
that's where it's gonna be I don't know
10:36
if anyone really knows for sure but is
10:38
Cherry Tree Lane the Mary Poppins
10:40
overlay going to end up back in this
10:42
exact section for example will the
10:45
gazebo go away in this courtyard be
10:47
utilized or where they just overlay that
10:49
section or will even be back here at all
10:51
I don't know later this year should be
10:54
out of meander through here back into
10:56
ratatouille definitely something to look
10:58

12:23
of what's taking place over there at

12:27
sight most likely for the sky liner and
12:30

12:56
that's gonna be cool maybe that's the
13:00
cue
13:11
listen I think we're good right wait
13:11
wait is proportioned I'll be a little
13:13
heavier on my end there's no one in
13:17
these seats
13:24
I think we'll be okay thanks him the
13:24
whole reason we got on this was just to
13:26
see what's taking place at ratatouille
13:28
yeah the whole lot going on so we have
13:31
to go all the way up here deep word get
13:33
back on then go back and get it from oh
13:36
you said there's like that neons well
13:38
you're transferring seats yeah I'm gonna
13:39
balance this this is feeling a kind of
13:42
skin like that
13:43
what's the condole is that at DCA now
13:48
you're scaring me what exactly is this
13:51
moves like you reach across hold hands
13:54
and sway it they don't want you doing
13:56
that no lean it's like they lock arms
14:00
and then Oh what was that a little bit
14:04
of a bump now she doesn't bother me at
14:06
all some people get a little frightened
14:08
on these but I really enjoyed this like
14:10
a nice peaceful of a cruise through the
14:13
sky what's the running man
14:34
I was sprinting there
14:34
now have to reboard heading back over to
14:37
Epcot drops us off at World Showcase
14:40
we're saying there's a new sign up here
14:43

14:46
I think beyond I think that though
14:50
eventually light up it's not illuminated
14:52
yet yeah obviously not during the day
14:54
but it's a little teaser of things to
14:57
