'it's a small world' at the Magic Kingdom is currently behind scrims for an exterior refurbishment.

The entire facade of the building is behind the scrim, suggesting fairly extensive work. The ride remains open for business as normal during the work.

... And people say masks are unneeded!

You can argue the mertis of how effective it is from saving us all from COVID but that mask is the only thing saving her dignity. 😂

Do you think they got that sign from vistaprint or the local Staples?
It's a scrim of color, a scrim of size
And it's so bright you'll have to close your eyes
There's so much color there
You will tear out your hair
It's a big, tall wall of scrim.

It's a tall scrim after all
It's a tall scrim that's a wall
We sure hope it doesn't fall
It's a tall, tall, scrim.
Interesting...

Sure hope that sign is temporary.

I think that entrance is temporary now...

Seems like it. I mean, WDI did file a permit for new graphic installation, so I’m assuming something new is coming.

That area is frequently a bottleneck, so if that pink-striped gazebo is part of the redo, it won't help pedestrian flow.
Not that I’d necessarily want it to happen, but since the Disney character treatment was rumored for WDW at one point, couldn’t they easily install some of them one by one? They’re not complicated figures, and they could just fabricate everything they made for Tokyo and send it over to MK. To me this seems like something they could do as a part of the 50th, without having to spend too much CapEx. It would also align well with the paint scheme enhancements taking place right now, and WDW’s IASW could use some love.

That has always been there, just given different colors throughout the years. It was blue in the 70s and 80s.
