Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[Jobelly]

I've had my 7 year old daughter to a little mix concert tonight and I still checked dining to see if ROL had been released. The bloomin thing is running/ruining my life!

It appears Disney needs people in Public Relations that have a clue.....

Oooh I would love to work for Disney. Imagine the discounts.

I could work the Parks Blog. Writing vague posts about nothing while ignoring comments.

I hear ya....I'm checking all the time too. I wonder if it would be better to be blissfully ignorant. Just show up at WDW, grab a park map and say....ok, what do I want to do?
Who am I kidding....I'm a type A planner, I would go crazy with no plan. However, the blissfully ignorant probably sleep well at night, and if you don't know what you're missing, you wouldn't miss it would you?

We've been hoping for the same
Unfortunately Disney has been screwing with us. Pull up a chair, grab some coffee and rum (you're gonna need it!) and join the insanity.

Yep --- trust me --- we want info in the worst way !! But if we don't laugh , we will cry--- and laughter is the best medicine -- ( well, except for Xanax) --- so, yep--- pull up that chair--- or something else to lie down on !!

We are here for you !!

Ha! Had my sister over for an ole' fashioned Irish dinner in honor of our mother, who would have been 84 years old today!

It was her dream to win Megabucks and take our rather large family to Disneyworld! That didn't happen, but I am planning the aforementioned sister trip! I feel strongly that my mother would have liked me to see ROL! She saw AK with her sisters when it first opened, and she loved it!! I remember her telling me all about it!

Anyway, I'm trying to be a good hostess, but I'm sneaking peaks in case there's a call to action (actually, I'm just sneaking peaks, I don't expect the call to action). And I'm CRACKING UP about the Maggie shirt!!

I hope I'm not to late to pre-order my Maggie shirt?! My sister wants one too!!!

Sorry to add to the clutter!

So I was thinking. ROL starts 4/22. Well 30 day FP would be like March 23, right? So do you think they could maybe be releasing FP then? That kind of coincides with the updated calendar dates someone was talking about earlier. At this point, I just want a FP for 5/16. This staying up every nite checking is wearing me down. LOL

ETA: Or is that too logical for Disney?

Al little off topic but you guys seem to have the latest info. While we're on the subject of Disney events that aren't going to happen anytime soon, does anyone know for sure that FEA isn't going to happen in May? I have an Akershus that I know someone would lows to have but I'm currently hanging on with the slimmest of hope that it's going to open around the first of May.

I read May 27th on another forum. I hope so since our Epcot day is June 6th. Lol.

I'm going to add "I survived the ROL launch of 2016" to my signature. Unless, of course, I don't survive.

Can we all have a badge made to put in our signatures? A special slider for our trip countdowns? I love the t-shirt ideas (I Love Maggie -> ) but would like something for the board too.

I've been thinking about this/watching the calendar too. I (selfishly) hope that ROL FP+s are released before March 23rd, so those of us staying in resorts have an advantage (there's really only one day I can fit ROL in, and it's the 22nd ), but we're getting closer and closer to that date with no new info.

I haven't figured out the whole signature thing yet.. but I like where you're going with this!

I'm actually going to be kinda sad when the dining/preview packages are released because I won't have this thread to follow anymore.

We'll start a "Celebration of ROL" thread for all our review through the months!

 

[Jfsag123]

Scrolling through the pages laughing out loud yet again. I must say, I have encountered many a thread about nothing on the Dis (and some about even less). This one is by far the best.

I will be out of town with spotty internet this weekend - look for packages to be released then. Somebody save me a spot.
