The popular Peter Pan’s flight is scheduled to close for refurbishment in the New Year. The Fantasyland attraction is scheduled to be closed January 7, 2019 through February 1, 2019. The longest closure comes in the form of a pit stop for the Tommorowland Speedway. To accommodate construction of the adjacent Tron Coaster, the attraction is scheduled to be closed January 2 through May 17th, 2019.
Gourd Snack Ideas

The mixed berry flavored confection is priced at $5 and can be currently found at its own cart next to the namesake wall.

If you need alcohol for breakfast, you are in need of serious help.

Especially at the Magic Kingdom... look, I've been known to enjoy some mimosas at brunch, but this is not the place for such offerings, in my opinion.

I agree. But my son and I did joke that maybe adults needed alcohol to make it through a day of screaming kids.

MK amen. I want a scotch at rope drop. When I'm on vacation, there is no clock for drinking, as they say, it's 5 oclock somewhere. I wonder what they'll have available to drink in the morning?
I look at it like tailgating. If tailgating, I'm drinking beer or whiskey at 8-9 in the morning, depending on the game.

January closures always have me wondering if the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. Marathon weekend is always the second weekend in January. Every year they close major attractions the first weekend in January. They literally promote an event that attractions 10s of thousands of guests and then close attractions. Can they not wait a week?

Or when your credit card bill comes in, or you have to settle up at check out... Best to have had a few too many before...
Son of Jor-El.. Kneel before Zod...
TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Often the right hand has no clue what the left hand has planned and is doing, and vice versa... but when uppers say close it, it closes no questions asked...

While possible to be a bureaucratic gaff, it has happened so many years in a row; I would wager that is (at least now) intentional.
The Marathon itself has become an attraction that draws huge crowds, so they may figure they can cut Operational costs early on several attractions and the hoards will come anyways because of the event.

Look there she goes that girl is strange, no question
Dazed and distracted, can't you tell?
Never part of any crowd

No denying she's a funny girl
