Personally, March and April are the two nicest months of the year, for me and David. We have our two birthdays, a week apart (we're both Aries - go figure), and a big time anniversary all by Earth Day. Guess it'll be better to celebrate everything "closer to/in home", etc. Glad we got to Disneyland, last September. David enjoying the non-spinniness of a tea cup.

Oh, "for the record," Canada's big music night, The Junos (Cdn version of The U.S.Grammys) to happen (and be broadcast on tv) this Sunday in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (had to write that place out)....has of course, been cancelled. And some musical acts are already there, starting to get ready for events.... that are now cancelled. Talk about instant information. Oh, Canada. All for the best, I know. Still.

Just read that Broadway shows will be shutting down all performances until April 12th. So far. So Stephen Sondheim (and all) will miss out on "Company"s opening on Mar.22.... also his birthday. Not till mid-April, Bobbie.

Walt Disney World Epcot Discussion Thread
Nrthwnd replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Sad thing is, I don't think they did it that way in Paris. I remember you disembark "the rat," you stroll by the floor~to~ceiling glass partition between you and Bistro Chez Remy diners. Plant vines and such are painted on the glass so it's not totally see-through either side.Then it's into a hallway, that's normal sized, out to the outside of the bldg. Pretty bland way to end it, although seeing all the wonderful theming in the restaurant is cool to see, too. (We did have a wonderful first meal there as well, on our Sept.2015 visit.) -

Walt Disney World Epcot Discussion Thread

^As far as everything I've read online, it will be a copy of the one in Paris. But - ya never know, right? At the end of the Paris ride, there's the Remy's Bistro to see (through a glass partition/wall) as you get off it. But they're not putting that in the EPCOT version (separate creperie instead), so the unloading area and exit may/will be different, visually. Also, they may have a gift shop for you to walk through, when exiting the attraction. P.S. It would be fun, if they started the exit way like you're still rat-size, then slowly bring it up to "human-size" by the time you exit the building. That would be cool! And now, they're adding a banner announcing it's eventual opening! Photo from the net. -
Non-theme park related... David has a family reunion (end of May) in Minnesota he's planned to attend, flying via Air Canada. Got the flight ticket already, but no Cancellation Insurance. D'oh! So we're keeping up with the news (Air Canada has already announced, no flights to or from Italy) as it happens.
