When I read "Topiary," I thought it might be just in conjunction with that. We are going to be there just after the Flower and Garden Festival ends on May 17.
If it is ended with the closure of the festival, it will be fine because my children don't know about it. They can still get passports and have them stamped in each country.
I just found my booklet and it is indeed only through May 15. So sorry you guys are just going to miss it!
I am so excited too as we will be there for the flower and garden festival!!! So my son will be able to do the booklet while in Epcot. I am so excited!!!
Thanks for the confirmations and the tour details because we will be going to see that too!

To confirm, I spoke with a cast member at DHS last week after visiting Luigi's garage to visit with Mater and McQueen, she mentioned that we should take lots of pictures because the entire area was going to be redone in just a few weeks to go along with Cars 2.
"M-I-C....K-E-Y....M-O-U-S-E!"<br /><br />"I'm gonna need a stretch....uh...make that a SUPER STRETCH!" (Rock N' Rollercoaster with my favorite band, AEROSMITH!)
I kind of panicked when I saw the last post last week because one of the MAIN reasons we are going to WDW next week was so that my son could meet Lightning McQueen....
But I have to say that this past Saturday we went to the NYC Javitz Center for the car show and we were able to enjoy Lightning McQueen and Finn (the new car from Cars 2) all by ourselves since NO ONE WAS THERE looking at him with us!
When I figure out how to post pics on here I will post some but it was wonderful seeing him with no lines and getting great pics with no one else around. I am so glad we went because if he isn't there next week when we go to WDW I won't be so upset since my son got to meet him

I would be fine with ADDING Lightning to LMA, but I'm not thrilled about him replacing Herbie. Of course it makes sense to promote the new movie, and the movie will in turn fuel (heh) enthusiasm for the show featuring Lightning. I just don't think enough effort is put into keeping classic ideas/characters for older fans to enjoy. Part of the fun of Disney is going back to relive old memories and build new ones. As a motor enthusiast, Herbie is something I remember fondly. The kids may not relate, but I do, and I pay the bills to enter the park.
Would it really have been so hard to incorporate both vehicles into a new show, or by tweaking the old one? That would be great! Old school and new school driving the stunt show together.

I agree....kind of like PotC. They kept the same ride just added characters from the new movie so young and old can relate. I know my brother is a huge Herbie fan....grew up with it. I haven't told him this info yet because I know he will be disappointed.

Reading that there was a 3 hour wait makes me feel MUCH better though.
I know 3 hours is crazy! That is why I was shocked when we went to NYC on Sat. to see them I was preparing my hubby for the line.....What a relief when we got there that no one and I mean no one was there with us except 2 guards. It was amazing!
