I'm curious to know how the land rehab/constrution is coming along. Also it would be great to find out if the Living Seas omnimovers will be brought back into service. Enjoy your trip! :)

I was just there [obviously] and have to say you'll like the crowds this time of year, it was amazing the lack of lines, esp. at Epcot. When they say the wait is 10 minutes for an E-ticket ride like Space Mountain and you only spend 4 minutes walking through a queue and 1 minute to load you know you're in good shape!

We'll be expecting a full length report and analysis on the SeaCabs :D

Cast member rumors are never a good gauge of what to expect. I wouldn't take it with a grain of salt.

Parks where quiet with little to no waits. The longest wait we had was Test Track and that was like 15 minutes. The Universal Parks and Seaworld were even slower. We walked on to everything.

Have a good time!

Ok quick update... sorry for not having the website up as soon as i got back. Had some deadlines for some sidework that sucked up all of my time. I have 1/2 of the site done and will be at 3/4 by the end of today. I'm shooting to have it up by this weekend.
