 » April 17, 2008 Resort Update

 

 

April 17, 2008

 

Greetings, Adventurers!

 

Today's Resort Update takes a look at the return of the "Jules Verne" time train from Back to the Future III, Grad Bash preparation around Islands of Adventure, and an up close view of the latest developments with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

 


Mardi Gras ends this Saturday with a performance from Earth Wind & Fire, if you haven't been this year, now is your final chance.

 

After being removed from the front of the Back to the Future attraction last year, the Jules Verne time train from Back to the Future III has returned - completely refurbished and looking more beautiful than ever.

 

 

 

 


Freshly painted and polished, the train now shines in places that were previously plain black paint.
