Mike started the morning with an almost empty Main Street. So gorgeous!!!
The morning then started with the dedication of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. All the dwarfs were there, as well as Snow White and Tom Staggs, Chairman of Disney Parks of Resorts.
Here is the video of the dedication, in case you missed it. It was short and sweet!
Next, Disney held it's What's Happening Around Our World presentation. During the presentation, they announced quite a few things.
First off was that Disney's Polynesian Resort would be renamed, Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. They also announced that Trader Sam's Grog Grotto would be debuting and they released some concept art of the new lobby redesign.

In addition, Disney is still looking at a 2017 opening date for Avatarland.
Moving on to Disney Springs, the Landing portion will open in early 2015 and that is when Disney will rebrand Downtown Disney as Disney Springs. The second half will debut in 2016.
