Tron

Last week, Susan and I returned to the Magic Kingdom for a special Cast preview of the new Tron rollercoaster.
It's a perfect roller coaster for me, not too wild but plenty fast. The theming is pretty good if you're a fan of Tron Legacy, which I am, although it is a pretty short ride. 
We returned for another preview last night, this time with Bryan and Jennifer. It's definitely more interesting at night, as the canopy changes colors.

Moonlight Magic

 
We visited the parks several times in February.  Early in the month we attended a DVC Moonlight Magic event at Epcot. We rode several attractions, including Guardians of the Galaxy, with short or no waits, and enjoyed free snacks.  
We also checked out several of the Festival of the Arts booths. We had dinner at Regal Eagle, the BBQ restaurant in the American pavilion. It's become our go-to place in Epcot since it opened about two years ago. 
We also spent some time in the Magic Kingdom. The train had restarted in December, but we didn't get a chance to go in and ride it until early in February. It's nice having it back.
Similarly, last night we finally got into Hollywood Studios to see the revised Fantasmic! show, which opened in November after a long hiatus.  
The show was mostly the same, but they did change out a couple of musical numbers. I think changing out a couple of the longer pieces for a few more shorter, more contemporary ones was a good idea. Of course we also walked around Galaxy's Edge and I rode Star Tours while we were at the Studios.
