Reindeer in a confined space is a horrible idea in too many ways to count.

 

[Shafor]

I was just joking Although reindeer at the stables would be killer.

Indeed, or in the grazing area right next to Festa.

I can't imagine whatever the "Polar Pathway" is would be inside Pompeii. I mean, when one thinks of "waterfalls of light. The smell of pine trees in the crisp frosty air", the first thing that springs to mind isn't exactly the musty inside of a ride that has been associated with Howl-O-Scream for years. But yet, the description mentions photo opportunities and specifically calls out Pompeii, and I don't see how this is possible without using the inside of the attraction.

"Waterfall of light" could mean that they will be covering the drop from Pompeii with lights and you walk under that into the Polar Pathway.

Maybe they are using the crane to take down part of the drop and they will have the water running out to make it look like more of a waterfall.

^Neat idea, but too much work for a one month thing.

 

[Peter R.]

Are there outside employee pathway around that area ( I can't remember myself)? Could BG use those for a Polar Pathway?

 

[Bryant]

Any idea what's in or how the peppermint hot chocolate is made?

 

[Gavin]

Having never been to CT, yes I haven't and probably never will, I can't say. BUT I've made peppermint hot chocolate using this recipe, and it's quite wonderful.

In bigger news, O tannenbaum is up outside the festhaus, and Christmas trees are lining the train track to make it magical!

 

[Ghost of Pretzel Kaiser]

Horrible news, guys. The pretzel shop isn't open for CT. Now what am I going to eat at the park?

 

[Zachary]

Could someone please explain the reason behind this? That just seems dumb.

It really does, the best thing to open up this year which is easily staffed and is very popular is closed during a time where food is a main focus.

Off topic but..what the heck is going on with the dateline listed in this thread?

 

[Bryant]

Wonder why it is closed? None of the food places or shops are closed..

 

[Ghost of Pretzel Kaiser]

To be fair, it's just not listed on the website. There's a possibility it's open, but as of right now it doesn't look like it.

 

[pandorazboxx]

it is kind of open, so maybe it could be hard to keep all those pretzels warm??

Some of the employees there told me it would be open. They said they were working it.

 

[Ghost of Pretzel Kaiser]

It's a Christmas Miracle!

 

[FAL NR OX]

But looking at some previous posts, not every employee is accurate, I'm not saying that the pretzel shop won't be open, but don't be surprised if it isn't.

well, there was a limited quantity $5 twitter deal today for friday evenings. Sold out an hour ago. Took less than an hour to sell out.
