Hi to all,
Just wanted to know if one of our faves is still around. The Carousel of Progress, that is.
Thanks!

When I went last September it was till up and running—hope it's still open when I go again this year (and getting refurbished like everything seems to be). BTW, it's one of my favorites as well

(I can never get that song out of my head though).

I was just on the CoP just last week!

This was the first time I actually paid attention to the fact that there is an extra little girl in the first scene. Thank you Intercot for pointing that out! Although now I want to know why!

Yes, I did read that too. I can't wait to check it out.

I was there the last of May. It has been open
every time that I have been lately. It is a great
ride. We always enjoy it.

It was open in Dec.06 when we were there last time.

Going in Sept. 07 and hope it's open during our vacation

I read in a couple of WDW guide books that COP will no longer be open seasonally, it will be open all the time!

I sure hope this is true! COP is one of my all-time favorites!

I must have missed something, why is there an extra little girl? I can't recall it just now and I LOVE that ride.

It was open when we went in May and I was very happy to find out that my kids LOVED it! They begged to see it a second time. The only problem was that it malfunctioned and we ended up in one 'era' twice, but they still enjoyed it.

**Mickey91** · 06-28-2007, 11:29 PM

Yes! As a matter of fact, it is now back in the Birnbaum's book!! Plus, our Passporter says it is no longer on the seasonal operation status! I think it is hear to stay!!!

So glad to hear. It has always been one of my favs. Btw - welcome to intercot Ariel's Dad.

Everyone makes fun of me because COP is one of my favorite attractions!!! It may sound weird, but the COP song is how I get my little girl to go to sleep sometimes!!! She loves it also and gets her right to sleep!

**jrpersinger** · 07-01-2007, 08:19 PM

We just rode it Friday!

"Its a great big beautiful tomorrow!"

COP is the first ride that the family heads off too once we hit the Magic Kingdom. The kids just love it! I would love to know where you can read about the extra little girl in the beginning?
