They also stopped selling cigs at the main gates of the park as well.

does that still apply?
there are official smoking areas at MGM for certain, especially around echo lake and on sunset boulevard, people smoke all the time and i always had to direct them to the smoking areas when i worked there in 2002.

Hey bailey!! I am leaving for Walt Disney World that day too! (leave Seattle 1225am 05.02) !!! Maybe we will see each other there! :sohappy:

Thank you for checking the phone line, DVC_Couple. I was sweating bullets too. When the hours first came out, I was mad that the first fireworks show at the Castle were slated for 6 hours after I departed back for Seattle. When these hours came up, I was jumping for joy! :D

This is gonna be soooooooooooo cool!

Oh right on! I have a VERY good friend down there, and somehow he was able to garner us PS tix to Cindy's breakfast. I tried to get them over the phone and failed. Mind you I had to get up at 350am my time to do so ... I work at 6, so that was not too big a deal, waking up 30min earlier. But not even 10 mins went by, got thru, sold out!! :brick: :cry:

But he calls me, and then tells me he got some like a few weeks later!! :sohappy: :) :D YAY!
 
Not sure if this affects anyone's plans (I know it affects ours) but I also noticed that they have signifiganty increased the number of days that Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach are open in May.

Blizzard Beach is now only closed May 16,17,23
Typhoon is now only closed May 18,19,20

Originally they had Blizzard closed 7 days in May and Typhoon 9 days in May.

Definately another good sign.

One more thing......the phone hours have the MK closing at 10pm on 5/10 where the website still has it at 9pm.

Couple of questions...

Someone menitoned that The Great Movie Ride was closed, when does it reopen?

I have never seen Timekeeper or Carouse of Progress, but they say they are open at 'peak' times? Would that include mid-June?

:animwink:

Lastly, I know that Fantasmic and Illuminations happen every night, but what about the closing show at MK? Is that Spectromagic? Is it on some sort of schedule?:

From what I understood from my travel agent's flyer, we are in Peak season down there right now, and it ends either this week or early next week. May is considered "regular" season, that is why I am going that week........much cheaper for a poor boi like myself! :lol:
