Powering Down
After August 7, 2010, the Power Rangers, seen on Streets of America in Disney's Hollywood Studios, will join Four for a Dollar, Imaginum, Kristos, and Andy Mation as former WDW performers.
Confession # 13: Not Me
As much as I've looked forward to the opening of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter over at IOA/Universal Orlando, I did NOT go on Opening Day.
Nope. No way.
It had been announced that the parking lots (Universal Orlando has 2 huge multi-story lots) would open at 5:30 am even tho the WWoHP wouldn't open until 10:30 am (not counting the earlier entry for special guests).
And people started lining up the day before, standing on the I-4 overpass ALL night because U/O wouldn't let them stay on property.
I turned on the tv at 5 am and there was already coverage on local stations which continued until, get this, 9 am, just about when Bill Davis, U/O prez started to open the envelope (see below). Our local ABC channel switched over to The PTL Club! So I switched over to the local all-news station.
I am definitely gonna go, later, tho, like about November.
And I'm already saving up $$ for all the HarryPotterCrap I want ... definitely a wand, both kinds of butterbeer (frozen and not frozen), cauldron cakes, chocolate frogs (seeing a trend here...)
