So....any photo updates?

Hey guys, I have heard from a MULTITUDE of Universal TM's that Dragons will be reopening as Dueling Dragons (before the Wizarding World is ready), but with the entrance being in Hogsmeade, up the new pathway, over the old exit path, then going DOWN the reride stairs, then into the loading areas, just like they have (had) now. The exit path, I'm not sure of. The castle will still not be used until the official transformation to Dragon's Challenge.

Hogsmeade would be open just up to the Dragons Portal, with tarps over everything, and walls up so nothing can be seen or touched.

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Why not just keep it closed and make sure its "transformation" is done correctly? They don't NEED to rush its downtime.

I rather have dueling dragons open but like jordan seaid universal dosent have to rush to get DD open.
Dose anyone have any pictures?

My guess is that they are so afraid of having one of their signature attractions down for Spring Break that they will rush to get as much done as possible. Damn the boy wizard. Damn doing it right. Same reason why Sea World reopened Believe with trainers that don't get in the water.

Bad news. There is now a guard at the entrance to Hogsmede. I think this means no more pics.http://boards.ioacentral.com/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif
