Latest scuttlebutt around the Springs is that that "Neverland Tunnels" area will be an underground rum bar.

No mention of a name, but now has me speculating "Neverland" may have been a codename for a pirate theme?

Possibly. I know the Tunnels will have hidden entrances and such.

First I've heard of these tunnels, not that I follow DS discussion much but this does have me intrigued. Anymore info guys?

It's under Edison in what was the old employee area under Adventurer's Club.

I could see that working with a kitschy pirate theme.

I'll probably have to give this a go. You know, for professional reasons.

The center chair has "Dave" carved into the wood. ...and there's a wheelchair stashed behind the bar for Mark (UK Trigg) for transport back to his hotel room.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm 95% sure thats the Twilight douchers up at the top middle about to kiss.
If it is... uhhh... ???

Ate at Wolfgang puck express last weekend. That pizza was absolutely incredible. I would eat there over more "upscale" places.

Charachters in Flight received new skin. They seem to replace it every 4 year (lifespan is 8-10). This is the third different skin the balloon has seen.

I think it looks a lot better than the prior Circus looking balloon.

Is it just me or is that like something out of a Real Housewives' wet dream?

I know the first time they replaced it the original one had damage to it. So that doesn't seem to be an accurate lifespan.

I'm just quoting the manufacturers website

I'm sure there are a lot of variables. Who knows it could be the company that operates the thing doesn't take proper care of it, based on their past of replacing qualified pilots with people with no experience because the pilots refused to go up due to wind I don't exactly have a lot of faith in them.

I think the blue will help hide it in the distance - previously it loomed over the skyline like an uggo deathstar.

Save PI has posted rumors that The Edison may feature a night club, so I wouldn't be surprised if something like that ends up happening.

Of course, WDW shut down HOB from doing ny sort of club nights in late 2015, so if there is one at The Edison then it will probably be fairly tame as HOB got shut down because of a few things...
1. Free admission to anyone over 18 (21 the last few months) and lax bartenders in checking ID.
2. Disney CMs (mostly CPs) would go here, get plastered, not show up for work or not even make it home and then they ultimately got fired for it.

Nevertheless, HOB was pretty much THE place to be in Orlando on Sundays for clubbing.
