"Drop off rest of party and then park car to save time getting to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter?" I'd recommend keeping everyone together. View my complete answer

Hi, OI fans and friends. I just wanted to let you know that I've fallen a bit behind on responding to emails and questions. All of the grandparents were in Florida for the last week or so, and of course I had to spend some time showing off Orlando! Anyway, starting tomorrow we'll be settling back in, and I'll have a chance to get caught up. If you sent me a message to which I haven't responded, and you need a response ASAP, please send me another quick note. Otherwise, I will be responding as usual in the next 48 hours. Thank you so much for your support. I hope everyone is having a fantastic National Margarita Day!

We just got this message from one of our readers:

I called the Warner Bros studios today and was connected with the Ellen show, and I asked her if the show would be returning to Orlando this spring and she stated that they would not be. The number I called was Warner Bros main line at 1-818-954-6000 and asked for The Ellen Show. Maybe I was told incorrectly, which I hope, because I’d love to see Ellen back in Orlando this spring!
