Construction can pop up anywhere!
Those that enjoy cooling off on a water ride mid-day probably know what we’re talking about — Kali River Rapids! This attraction has been closed since November 1st, but it looks like we could be riding it once again soon!
The reopening date for this attraction has been listed as mid-December since the closure was originally announced. And, while the refurbishment notice still has this as the timeline, we noticed today that the ride is now showing operating hours on Thursday, December 16th from 9AM to 7PM.

So, if you’re headed to Disney World then and you want to get completely soaked on a hot day in Florida, you’ll likely be able to do that on Kali River Rapids soon (seriously, you WILL get soaked).
