I will have limited access to update the site itself for the next week, but I will have Twitter access – although I may not have much to post as I will be very busy with other business…however, you’ll probably get a few tweets and pics perhaps from The Wizarding World of Harry Potter again…although I expect it to be far more crowded this time, and I’ve heard that an open bar and dessert buffet is NOT standard. 🙁

So Captain Jack fans may still have several months to wait…if you need your John Barrowman fix, check out I’d Do Anything, the Andrew Lloyd Webber singing/talent competition airing on BBC America where he is a judge.
