    They already have boats that accomodate wheelchairs. Are they planning on adding more?

    I think so and the boats would be able to carry heavier weights as well

    I just found internal communication that the Living With the Land boat voyage will be closed to Guests starting August 1 thru late fall for refurbishment. No further details were provided.

    Any conformation that the ride actually went down today?

    I have seen it on some other websites, but nothing in coming from Disney. Everything I have read said it is an "emergency" refurb and there is no scheduled end date so far. They are stating that is the Living with the Land ride not the whole Land pavilion.

    I just got back. The Land ride definitely went down for refurbishment on Aug. 2. I love Living with the Land and I was sad it was not operating.

    This really has me bummed. This is definitely one of my favorite rides. I guess I'll just have to plan another trip after the rehab since I'll miss it this time.
    In need of a Disney World fix really bad.

    If anyone hears of a re-opening date... please post. We are going Oct 23rd and it is one of our favorite rides. We stumbled across it several years ago when it was the only thing without a line and we were hot and tired.... we were so surprised and have loved it since. It will be sad if that and TTA is down.

    I agree, this is one of the most relaxing rides left at WDW. My DD5 and I rode it three times without getting off last trip while my DW and other DD's rode Soarin. We were the only ones on the boat and we had a blast. I played the video on Youtube last week for her and she got so excited. Hope it is back up and running in December.
