Originally Posted By Niele I've seen it mentioned that the monorail will be back up on two different dates, Dec. 15th and Dec. 22nd. Any thoughts? I am hoping so much for the 15th because the 22nd will be our last day in DL/DCA.

Originally Posted By Niele Again, many thanks for the info. I sure hope those dates "keep". We'll be there in December so I was trying the DL calendar and it does not show that time yet. Also, thanks for all of your update photos; even if I can't make it to DL often, I can see the fun and joy through your camera lens.
