Garsh, folks, EPCOT's your late-day park this Thursday, October 15, open 9 AM to 9 PM. First heads-up: Test Track's single-rider line was closed all day Wednesday while cast tested a new operating procedure, and nobody's confirmed it's back, so figure on standby and ride it early. My plan? Let the party crowd drift off toward Magic Kingdom at 6 PM, then work World Showcase after 4 when the roads open up. The Food and Wine Festival runs through November 21, so booth-hopping makes a fine dinner. One more thing for your calendar: the Rose & Crown pub carries a refurbishment notice for a February 15, 2027 close. Even I couldn't goof up this plan, yuh-huh!
