What's going on – are we under attack?

Yes, indeed. The attack of the Sand Blaster. (I was going to start quoting from Mr. Sandman, but I wouldn't want to give anyone an unwanted earworm …)

Mr. Sand Blaster is hard at work stripping Monsoon Lagoon of its paint.
It's time to refurbish Splashin' Safari's popular water-play area (which was added in 1998, can you believe it?).
Monsoon Lagoon looks very different without water, doesn't it? Not to mention all those "60 ways to get wet."

Something else that's missing? All those rope nets? Gone! We're adding steps for 2014, which should make getting around easier for all the little explorers.

We'll bring you updates here on the HoliBlog throughout the winter until it's time to "just add water."
This image deeply disturbs me. It feels i wasn’t supposed to see this..
