Rumors of Light (ROL discussion thread)

[Clumsy_Chica]

I did as I was instructed to do this morning and called back. I called twice because the first CM said ROL has been cancelled.

Oy vey!

One of the posts on ewdw's forum called our thread a dumpster fire!!

And the flames are like flickering rivers of light...

We just got home from seeing ZOOTOPIA...if you haven't seen it yet, it's great!!! We loved it...just DH and me, no kids, but we definitely were surrounded by them in the theater! I would say it's as good as INSIDE OUT

Slightly but my husband just said the sweetest thing and I had to share.

"I don't understand Disney. It doesn't really do anything for me, and I don't really 'get' Disney Magic. What I DO get is how important the Disney Magic is to you. To you, the magic is absolutely real, and seeing you in the parks caught up in all of that magic is worth every penny to me."

Aaaaaand I'm crying

None of the dining /show packages (Fantasmic, Candlelight Processional, the Epcot Eat to the Beat concerts) are prepaid. They usually come with appetizer/entrée/dessert/nonalcoholic beverage. On DDP, some Fantasmic ones are one credit (Brown Derby is two) and CP/ETTB packages are two credits. If the restaurant is buffet or ACYE it's not broken down into appetizer/entrée/dessert, you get whatever you'd normally get when eating there.

Has anyone called today? If so, are you being told to check the blog tomorrow?

I called about something else but did my obligatory inquiry. She said that they had no additional advisories and that she knew nothing about it. So, okay, cool...

This was the best way to end my workday!

I mean, here we are.... Over 400 pages, someone gave BIRTH while waiting for ROL ADR and FP+ announcements.... and we are still having a blast. I get a laugh every time I step away from the computer for an hour and the thread jumps 10 pages! I always check the last post first, to make sure I didn't totally miss something important (like a baby being born), and then go back and read. I absolutely LOVE how this thread is all over the map, and everyone is nice and helpful.

Also - If someone is still working on the t-shirt, baby Rolf needs a mention.

Baby ROLf needs a onsie!

They really should have called us a lantern fire....

That's so sweet!!!! I think we might have the same husband because mine says the same thing. Even though my husband isn't a Disney World fanatic like me, at least he understands how much it means to me (and the kids) and willingly makes a trip there every 2 years or so (actually -- 2 years in a row this time!). And that makes me very happy.

You know...I've just been reading the BLOG and it got me to thinking...

Maybe we've all been too hung up on all this "night" stuff! Maybe we should all change our plans and do the nifty "Sense of Africa" tour instead. It's a breakfast thing (and very budget friendly). Anyone?

Interesting change from other days when people were repeatedly told to "keep checking the blog for updates" and "information should be coming soon". Hmm...

Latest I've heard. Don't expect those preview wdwnt posted. The only event still on the table is 4/19 which is media/corporate related. I'm even hearing the opening might be pushed back until the 26th or later.

My husband does not get it either. Recently, he said, I think finally I get it now, it is like me with the train shows, and my trains. (he collects model trains, and goes to shows, and belongs to a club and is always searching for junk on Craigs list). He apologized for not understanding!

(I go to the parks 3X a year, and even work at TDS. He has not been to Disney in many years, BUT is going in October, we booked the Cabins, he can walk around the woods if he wants a break.)

I can't even like this post out of spite. :|

I call every other day about something else (looking for new CM room discounts ) and I always toss in the RoL question too. Nothing on either front, yet.
