This was a great addition. And for the record, we have been there multiple times now and it was always full. You learn something and it is fun. I would imagine as it gets hotter this will just get more and more crowded.

One would think that this would be a person they would encourage to come to the grand opening… I do like it though

Excellent! Very happy to see it back up so quick, and that it's not going to be an "oh well.."

Disney fixed something. I thought that didn't happen.

Nice. Quick repair. Maybe just a late growing pain.

EXACTLY! and Moana would have looked better in DAK.... And maybe a splash Zone themed to an Oceanographic Institute actually on the same side of the monorail beam as the Living Seas would have been a better choice.... Something that matched the style of the front half of the park....

Keep kids entertained, something to cool off. However if that is the case how come Hollywood Studios doesn't offer one or Animal Kingdom. If the Dino playground is going away for good then that's removing something for the kids. Hollywood Studios could use something water it's hot there.

I still don’t see how it was a good idea to put a Moana water feature in the middle of Epcot. What were they thinking???

Perhaps this is just Epcot crying out I don't want this transformation that none of us asked aside minor enhancements or upgrades like Creation Shop and Connections made well better for Epcot how it was.
