Of course, I will still be stopping at the DLR once or twice a week... And I have others things scheduled. Thursday evening, planning to cover the 11th Taste of Anaheim event. Friday should be the release of the 11 Parks, 11 Roller Coasters in less than 11 hours album, timed to the release of the article. Saturday is the new Pirate Shores area of LEGOLAND and then the San Diego County Fair.

FWIW, I got to DL around 8:35ish & there were next to no lines to get in the park. I got in line at the Emporium at 8:45 & was in my boat at 9:30.
