New DL Update From AL

So when is the hotel thing supposed to happen? We need to rent the swank suite at least once before it goes - that would be some party

I hate you.

I'm glad I got to see the waterfalls at least. Even if the dancing water thingy wasn't going.

Nostalgia be damned in this case.

Of course, I didn't grow up here with them yada yada. That's just my "outsiders" perspective. I think I actually still frown a bit when I see them from the tram on the way into the part. 1960s Hilton indeed.

Nostalgic to me. It will always be the "super cool hotel that the monorail ran through* that I never got to stay in because I live so close" to me. However, since I've been in the hotel, and in the rooms, I no longer *have* to stay in it. I'll be sad to see a landmark go, but it can go.

*yes, I realize now that the monorail never ran through it.

Went to go see it a few weeks ago, but they had turned the falls off. Any idea how late they are normally left on?
