Nice to know that color combo meant something! One CM even commented under her breath "Well, that was weird".

I noticed the color difference on our last trip but never did receive an explanation for it even when I asked.

In January I had the new band and at MK (which was our first park) it actually said "welcome home"

We are somewhat underwhelmed..... :)
