    Feel free to post questions for comments!

    And yes, it was VERY hot, but very enjoyable. Quite nice to see EPCOT still all decked out for Flower and Garden Fest... they provided for some nice shots.

    How was Futureworld without whirlygigs? I guess the tarp is still there?

    Pretty much. Moderate waits, the usual rush for FPs and crowds for MSEP and Wishes.

    The rest of the time? Very quiet. Not as quiet as last year, when Potter debuted, but it wasn't as busy as December, or as June should be.

    (Yay)

    Two of my favorite things! UoE is pretty old, but it's a great show. Fun.

    And Impressions of France is FANTASTIC. Classic 1982 EPCOT Center travelogue. Was recently converted to digital projection, and it looks great.

    FW was very nice without the added clutter. But we needed more gone! LOL
