Nice!!! Enjoy it!!



This was definitely a smart decision by you to head to the park today!

Yea it's very relaxing actually.

By those Pics, I assume we had a regular FOF today, not a rain FOF?

Idk? It started at 145pm. What's the rain version?

Transportation and Pet Care operational update

Just wondering, are we/WDW expecting downpours tomorrow night?
Is that why MK/EPCOT isn't doing HEA/ROE at closing tomorrow ?

I believe they want to hard close the park. So closing time actually means closing time. The night shows prolong the exit.

Currently trying to decide if I should stay in Tallahassee or head over to Jacksonville. These shifts west do not look good for us at all.

Stay in Tally. I stopped in a nearby sports bar in Tally and met a couple from Key West who I know is safe compared to their home. You don't want to be on the traffic on the road. You're better off staying and hunkering down. It will be a Cat 1 or TS by the time it arrives here.

Well the driver was nice... but more of a "I can't let you get on without a letter" which I understand. It was the baggage people who just didn't seem like they knew how to handle the situation. Which seems odd to me... we can't be the only family that misplaces their letter right before departure.

Oh well...

We, too, have misplaced our letter in the past, so don't feel bad . For that one they just printed a new one at reception. YMMV they say, right?

Mickey and Minnie in regular outfits. No opening dancers, etc.

Do they still use the letters? Or do they just scan your magic bands? (I cannot remember for the life of me)

For those of you who have downloaded the Zello app..( @Tony the Tigger etc)-

someone sent me a message trying to test it.

She said that it took over a minute to reach me. Here's what I got when I tried to respond -

It worked fine once we finally got they though.. but we're under normal conditions and there was still a delay. I think you're better off attempting to use text or FB messenger.

None of the parks are doing evening entertainment it seems, so not only can they close at closing time, but people will also leave much earlier if there's nothing to stick around for.

At noon today frontieland was empty

Im going too for illuminations lol. But I have a feeling it will be packed there all the locals

Cosmic rays is empty. I am here eating lunch and people are complaining about the park closure and being stuck in Orlando.

Unbelievable... This is a sad commentary on today's me-Me-ME!!!!! culture.

Edit: Curious to know the approximate ages of those complaining. Families? Individuals? Young or old?

If they close all the gift shops at 9PM, then you know they're serious....

I don't think many locals over a 15 or 20 minute drive will be heading over there lol.

For some reason I feel like this is going to continue to push more west and go up that side of Florida rather than through the center of the state....seems like models are slowly moving in that direction.
