I’m back! And still singing a little bit of the post-Disney blues. I had a great trip with lots of good food and friends, and I headed right back into a crazy week. Literally I got off the plane Tuesday night and went directly to my theater for dress rehearsal, for a show that has 4 performances this weekend. I could use some downtime but I guess I’ll have to wait another week for that! In the meantime I’m counting down to my Disney cruise in May.

Disney Rumors
Epcot // Not the first time it’s been mentioned, but there is speculation that Illuminations will be replaced by a new “nighttime spectacular” fireworks show.
Magic Kingdom // I think this one is waaaaay out there in the rumor field, but some people are suggesting that It’s a Small World will be replaced by a Tangled attraction. I don’t see it happening.
General // Although we just had a ticket price increase, some people are saying that there will be another increase this year, and that multi-day ticket prices will vary based on the season.
