  The waits around 6:30. Notice Splash has emptied out the most due to the dipping temperatures. But overall everything has lightened up compared to earlier.
  Small World Holiday is still running for a few more weeks.
  Happened by the projection show again.. here is a closer and slightly better video of this show which is a shell of its former self in my opinion.
