PI Update: I'm Here For The Hoopla!

It was two years ago this month that we visited Laguna Bar on the water behind Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. On that evening former Adventurers Club bartender Jessica was working and confirmed they have a secret drink menu inspired by Pleasure Island.

It helps if Jessica is working (Friday-Tuesday) when you visit because other cast members may not know about the secret drink menu. Just tell her, "I'm here for the Hoopla!" We need to get back out there to see if it still exists! Kungaloosh!

DS Update: Springs Not Bubbling

During our most-recent visit to Disney Springs, we noticed that the springs of Disney Springs weren't bubbling. Typically, there were some spots within the springs where bubbling occurred to indicate these were springs. But there were no bubbles. Don't know if that was just that day or whether the springs bubbling has been turned-off permanently.
