Disney mobile app updated for new DCA

Anyway, today's update includes updating the map for DCA to include the new BVS and CL lands.

Waiting for a text back to find out where he downloaded the app from.

I'm clueless about that stuff.

I think he regrets getting it, cause I'm always randomly texting him asking him the wait times for various rides just for the heck of it. But I promise not to do that to you, Hans.

I downloaded the update yesterday and Carsland/BVS are there. As I was scrolling around, I noticed that the Boudin Bakery still shows up! Talk about a serious oversight. LOL.

I have the iPhone too (for work) and might have to take that if needed.

It's the official Disney app so I'm assuming the wait times are accurate and constantly updated.

Why is this funny. I know that Mission Tortilla Factory is gone, but Boudin is still there, right?
