Music Plaza view of current work for the large overbanked curve in Fast & Furious Hollywood Drift.
Hot Dog Hall of Fame is closing soon. Limited opportunity to sit in seats from many baseball parks. This @JimHillMedia podcast has a feature at the end that tells the story of how Rainforest Cafe and this CityWalk location are related. https://podcasts.jimhillmedia.com/show/the-universal-joint/from-rainforest-cafe-to-hot-dog-hall-of-fame-with-steven-schussler-ep-108/
Current work for Fast & Furious Hollywood Drift behind Music Plaza. Tall supports for track where cars will ascend a hill before descending into brakes at the station. Underneath is the first launch of the cars. Speeding through the supports, adding visual thrill.

When the rehearsal of Celestial Goodnight stopped tonight. Helios Grand Hotel remained colorful for a moment. Then resumed normal lighting.
Rehearsal tonight of new Epic Universe fireworks show seemed to have an nearly immediate stop. Spectacular heat lightning nearby, high in the sky, likely caused a safety stop. Team Members are on rooftops, near a lake, for this show.
Odd to see this pair of World Celebration shops closed daytime. Might be the first they have been closed for EPCOT daily operation since their refurbishment in the pandemic era.
Current brick work at the theater in Monstropolis. All bricks to be painted soon in the style or theme of Monsters Inc.
