Dancin' with Disney sounds interesting although I wonder how successful they'll be at keeping parents from mobbing the characters to get a photo.

I just had to repeat this section from under refurbishments:

Disney California Adventure
None currently scheduled

FINALLY!!!!!!
Thanks for all the coverage over the festivities, to the whole MousePlanet, krewe!

ETA: They showed the Time Travel Cars Short over the weekend (I think on ABC) at the end of Cars. It was really cute. They also had Larry the Cable Guy doing 'commercials' for Cars Land throughout the broadcast.

We were in there long enough Saturday to watch both character sets, and each character has a handler to help deal with photo-hounds and autograph-seekers.

I'm wondering how many CMs they took to handle crowd control on friday. We saw several characters at DL without handlers. Brer bear even asked me what time i was and walked behind us 3 kiddos and showed that would be the end of his line, he was going in. All by his lonesome, it was kind of sad.
I and Whistler found the new sleds uncomfortable, and hard to get out of as the bottoms are now flat in addition the the reduced leg room. we didn't have much of a ise from the floor to the seat before but it was enough tho help with comfort in leg room and being able to get up.
Great report, and thank you very much for all of the construction updates an pictures over the last several years as well.

I thought the Mad T Party REPLACED ElecTRONica?

In the part about the Glow with the Show ears (emphasis added):

reported last week that Disney had invited passholders to try out the new Glow with the Show ear hats during upcoming after-hours performances of World of Color. I described the event as a test, which sources in merchandise tell me is not the case. The new ear hats went on sale to the general public last Friday, and the interactive feature is now active at ElecTRONica and the Mad T Party, with readers reporting that the ears also seem to react to some locations in Cars Land, as well as to the Soundsational Parade in Disneyland.
