On the wall of the bank in Lion's Arch is a poster. The text is New Krytan, which theorigtcally your characters are actually speaking, not English, French or German. Here is the English translation, from Arenanet:
Avast! Ahoy all ye landlubbers!
The hardworking members of the consortium are proud to announce the upcoming unveiling of your dream vacation! coming soon we will open the gate – the asura gate – connecting Lion’s Arch to a veritable tropical paradise of magnificent proportions!
Swim in the radiant waters*!
Relax on the beach*!
Dance the night away*!
Prepare to hoist your jolly roger and to embark on a most majestic adventure with your favorite band of salty dogs!
Arr You Ready?
*Towels not included. The consortium cannot be held responsible for aquatic-related and rythmic-related injuries(or other injuries related to misadventure or otherwise general buffonery). Our medical staff will be on-call to happily ignore your needs should they inevitable arise.

Me too but I suspect those radiant waters are inhabited by some realty nasty creatures.

I haven't seen it (yet) but apparently a dead whale can be found beached in Lion's Arch. Also on top of the Lost Shores page is a scrolling calendar bar. It has "October 2012 Shadow of the Mad King", "November 2012: The Lost Shores" and "December 2012 Coming Soon". That last with a locked symbol instead of a picture. Don't know if that supposed to mean monthly updates from now on or what. November 1st update accidentally increased drop rate of unidentified dyes (got several my self), November 5th update lowered it back to normal.

I've seen a Lost Shores schedule. If you actually have a job its going to be awful because its all one time only events all happening in the middle of the three days it run.. Arenanet needs to stop with these one time only events that most people will never see. They didn't do that with the first Guild Wars.
I searched Lion's Arch. No beached whale. I suspect like everything else in Lost Shores it was a one time thing.
Oh and despite their previously saying it begins the 15th, which I have off work, it actually starts the 16th.

Kissa Nimbleclaw is now an agent of the Order of Whispers. She's going to investigate the grawl.
Vigil members aid a lesser race.
Durmand Priory members study a lesser race.
Order of Whisper members investigate a lesser race.
The most militaristic order, the Vigil, is also the most charitable.
Lesser race=less advanced non-playaable race. Skrit are an option for players who are not asura or norn which is one of the reasons I don't think skrit will ever be a playable race.

Yesterday's update, in addition to adding links to Lost Shores page and Halloween diorama winners, also stopped raw candy cane nodes from popping up. Before the update, I would occasionally see one appear for a second or two than vanish. Couldn't mine them.
The only icon I don't have on my character load screen now is the equip legendary weapon one.
Rameî (formerly of the Vigil) is Commander of the Pact (second in command).
Whâkk is a Warmaster of the Vigil.
Anvîndr is an Explorer of the Durmand Priory.
Kissa Nimbleclaw is an Agent of the Order of Whispers.
My other characters haven't joined an order yet.

The posters have vanished from Lion's Arch. Don't know what that means.
Not at the moment. Ramei hasn't beaten Zaihtan yet.
Made my previous entry too soon, Whâkk has just been promoted to Warmaster.
Just saw legendary short bow, The Dreamer, being used in Lion's Arch.
