Thanks for the links Heather! It's great to get a better idea of what they are planning! When do they begin work? Or has it started already? Any word on what will happen to Mickey and Minnie's houses and meet and greet areas?

Dawn-I don't believe it's started yet, but I'll let you know when I go in a little over a month how things look! Last I heard, Mickey & Minnie's home won't be moved anywhere, but who knows what they'll end up doing. They are doing some work on the Expo on Main Street for a new Mickey & Minnie greeting area.

It looks like the work has started, construction walls are starting to go up:

No, I didn't. Where they broke ground is backstage. The only construction I saw was the typical refurbs of the outside of stores and such that they always do around this time of year. I did hear that Ariel's Grotto is closing on April 12th. Ariel is going to be with Eric at the Adventureland Veranda, starting sometime in early May. Also, Pooh and Tigger are moving from their spot near the Pooh playground spot. Both of these have to do with the expansion, since both areas will be taken away. I think the area in the back of the Expo is already closed (wasn't when I was there since I took pics with the cutouts!) for them to work on converting it to Mickey & Minnie's meet and greet.
Melissa is going later this month, so maybe she'll have more updates.

Good thing we finally toured Mickey and Minnie's houses this last trip in Dec; we'd missed them our previous two trips.

Thanks Heather! I'm hoping this is a good change! I'm one of those people who doesn't exactly like change! I hope they don't get rid of the original characters all together and just focus on the princesses! Ya know!?

Here's pics of the construction walls & updates on the expansion
http://www.disunplugged.com/2010/04/...-magic-kingdom Dawn-I'm sure they won't be getting rid of Mickey, Minnie, etc. That's what they are building in Expo Hall, a meet & greet area for those characters.
