Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[MickeyWaffles]

I mean why post about something that really doesn't affect you at all - let the folks who care about it post.

Do you really want this to be an echo chamber of only the same opinions and perspectives?

This whole “don’t share your thoughts if it doesn’t affect you” thing pops up on here from time to time and really gets old.

I guess they can’t plexiglass them off property. Weird they’re at the point of bringing in ride vehicles, but the ride won’t be open for another 12-20 months.

It was not included on the Disney press release as opening in 2021, so we’re assuming it’s going to open in 2022.

Catching up on the last 4 pages or so, I was subtly reminded quite a few times that rteetz is on vacation .

Well yeah, they're selling those wands for about $50 each.

I think there is a difference between HP wands and the Disney. Universal was selling a ton of them for only a few dollars less before they were interactive. I know I ended up buying each of my kids one when we first went before there were any interactive elements. When Hogsmeade first opened, Ollivander's annex often had a longer wait than FJ. Even if they took away the "magic", they'd still sell a ton. The Ollivander experience and the ability to buy the character's (and other) wands would still be a draw.

The last time I went to Universal, many of the effects didn't seem to be working. In a nod to their own cost-cutting, they didn't have any of the Hogwart's students out to help us muggles like in year's past either. Hard to tell if it was muggle incompetence or "dark magic" preventing them from working. Since I didn't see any one else getting them to work, I'm going with dark magic.

Yeesh, sorry.

Just poking a little fun at the off topic tangents that are inevitable when rteetz is busy. Wasn’t the first and won’t be the last I’m sure. Did not intend to offend or single anyone out .

FWIW, I thought it was funny.

He seems to take vacations at the perfect times. Early November 2020. And this week. Though, as far as I’ve seen it’s been pretty civil in here. No one on DISboards deserves a put-the-phone-down-and-relax vacation like rteetz does.

Sorry, I was in a melancholy mood earlier after reading the article about the NJ Rep down on his hands and knees picking up garbage at the Capital. I'm better now. I have no hard feelings and can often misinterpret posts. I hadn't yet played SotMK but have some cards and did watch some folks play on my last visit and thought that would be cool to try sometime. Not the first time I saw something at WDW and said I'd get to it at some future visit and then it was gone.

It has been a rough week all around. Sometimes it comes through here because we are like family and it’s our safe space.

We are all adults. We disagree, we discuss, we move on! And most importantly, no hard feelings.

Agreed, you don't get to my age - which I call the new 40s - without a sense of humor and patience and tolerance. But there are just some days I really need the PeopleMover - and that came this week.

Now bring D23 to Orlando. Actually it gives me a reason every other year to go to the California parks, so maybe keep it there
