It's A Small World Reopened Today

[Melanie]

No characters. :( I was really hoping they'd surprise us.

Just the promised switching of the entrance and exit, and the new air gates.

Wooooohoooo!! Can't wait to see it in Sep. 2011.

You mean now the queue is under the facade so we can't look at it while waiting? :confused:

I am also curious to know the new changes

It's been literally decades since I've ridden Small World, yet it's somehow comforting to know it continues.

A visit to WDW isn't a real visit for my family unless we ride IASW!

So if I understand this correctly you enter now where you used to exit and exit where you used to enter?

Air gates? This one I'm not at all sure about.

IASW was the first ride I & my family ever experienced at WDW in Dec. '71. I'm SO glad they have not messed with this ride.

It's tradition with me to make it the first ride I experience each & every trip I make "back home".

Some things just need to be left alone.:mickey:

Exactly what are the changes?

[tsantillo]

Yep, you enter where you used to exit and exit where you used to enter. We were there last week. You do a little zig-zagging just under the awning and then follow the wall around behind the tower.

I can see where it definitely benefits those who need the alternate entrance, i.e. wheelchair, problem walking, etc. Overall, I don't like it.:( It makes the whole place look soooo crowded. As soon as you walk under the awning, all you see is people everywhere.
