Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[elmoandzoey]

In sitting in the most boring meeting ever. At least I have reception on the phone! If ADRs go live today, I think I will entertain about a 500 people with my squealing

Coffee done brewing and and Happy St. Pats! In real life this pirate's last name starts with McC so it is a fun day for us! Too bad we have a house full of sickness. I have been thinking lately if I ever do get access to dining packages for our April day at Animal Kingdom that I will sit frozen with shock at the keyboard until long after they are sold out...

Happy St. Pats from a former Mc! (I got a German last name when I got married.)

I think I'll be the same way if/when any of these changes are made (ADRs, FP+, and/or park hours) - just shocked!

May your house be germ free ASAP

Thank you beesly and figment! My little beast has viral pneumonia and I am now sick. Hoping you don't NEED to catch pneumonia from your kid that coughs directly into your face?

On topic, I can now book a party of 7 at the rainy cafe at 6, 630, or 645, which I have not been able to do before. No "water" and "light" dining.

 

[figmentfan423]

Nothing, nada, zip, zilch, zero

 

[MickeyMinnieMom]

Aaaaaand.... NOTHING.

I'm sorry to hear that! I hope you can find time to sleep.

I guess this meeting will not be entertained by me today

Good Morning everyone. I wasn't going to get up at 5 o'clock this morning, but thanks to Daylight Savings Time my internal clock says that it is time for me to be up. Thanks everyone for checking already, now I can go make coffee and wait for the phone lines to open. Although I'm not holding out much hope for any new changes, maybe the Luck of the Irish will all be with us today! Happy st. Patty's Day!


edited...ok, so it is not due to DST...I'm just awake and there is no good reason for it! I hate it when that happens!

It looks like the total number of restaurants in the "All Dining" list has gone up by one (from 346 to 347). I can't tell which one is new, but the total number when you filter for AK is still 27, so I'm guessing it's unrelated.

I did find out while poking around this morning that the Dibb actually has a tool where you can sign up to get an email notification if/when WDW officially changes its hours during your stay (you input a date range to receive notifications for): http://www.thedibb.co.uk/forums/parkhours.php?hours=04+2016

From this link, there's an orange/yellow bar you have to click to expand the notification fields.

In that expanded restaurant list, beyond what is currently bookable, Tiffin, Nomad Lounge and Animal Kingdom Special Activities are listed. Maybe a teeny tiny positive thing.

I noticed that too, but I couldnt figure out what was new either!

 

[Vernie822]

Coffee in hand ready to call! Not expecting much but we'll see.

 

[rlk]

Just got off the phone. Nothing yet.

 

[figmentfan423]

Same here. Nothing but I must have heard I'm sorry at least 5 or 6 times

 

[Indybill]

Same here...got the "watch the blog" response.

 

[antman]

I think/hope you meant lurking? But welcome![/QUOTE]

Hahaha! Yes, I meant lurking

 

[Vernie822]

Nothing here. "Watch the blog" "I'm sorry I don't think we have anything"
