Rose & Crown Pub and Restaurant

At the beginning of the month, we learned that Rose & Crown Dining Room would close for refurbishment until early spring.

We headed over to check out what the restaurant looked like now. The restaurant service is down, however the seating areas both inside and outside are open.

You can still grab a drink from the pub, and now you’ve got more options for where to sit!

EPCOT Merchandise Updates

The Fjording

We noticed that the gift shop in the Norway Pavilion called The Fjording moved some its merchandise around! There are now shoes being sold where the Norway branded items were.

Germany Pavilion

The Germany Pavilion was home to the Annual Passholder Pop-Up shop last year, where annual pass holders could get some exclusive Disney merchandise. Now, some of that merchandise from the pop-up is available in the Germany gift shops!

We also found a few new-to-us items in the shop including this Germany Tervis Tumbler.

Art of Disney

We recently spotted some new Soul t-shirts with the murals you can find around Disney Springs on them. Now, these t-shirts are available in the Art of Disney shop right by the new Soul of Jazz Exhibit.

Soul Merchandise

Each t-shirt is $36.99 and features an artist’s gorgeous work. Plus, you can learn more about each artist on little placards around the merchandise. One of them features Mr. Mittens as Joe’s hair…

EPCOT Construction Updates

La Gelateria

While in the Italy pavilion we checked to see if there was any progress on the La Gelateria construction.

La Gelateria Construction

Not much has changed, but it looks like it’s coming along! We’ll let you know as soon as we hear about an opening date for the new gelato stand.

United Kingdom Pavilion

Even though the Festival of the Arts is in its final days, it’s not over yet! Well, Disney apparently thinks it is because they’ve already removed some of the easels in the United Kingdom pavilion to make way for decor for the upcoming Flower and Garden Festival.

United Kingdom Pavilion Garden

We noticed that some of the tea cup planters we’ve seen in past Flower and Garden Festivals are here.

Looks like Disney is ready to move onto the next festival!

Harmonious Barges

While we walked around World Showcase, we saw that one of the arms on a Harmonious barge was being tested!

Harmonious Testing

We’ve seen several tests on these two barges before, and we really can’t wait to see what they’ll look like in the show!

Take a look at the second Harmonious barge!
