Just waking up and getting my thoughts together from yesterday.
We got to HS at 4:30. We have APs, so no big deal. Grabbed Starbucks then headed to Mike and Sulley. Waited about 45 minutes for them. Met Chewie then BB8 then headed to Baseline. Got stuck there longer than planned thanks to a storm.
We grabbed our wristbands at about 7:30 then did ToT FP. Yes I rode. Never again.
Fantasmic crowd was building. Several tour groups.
Headed to TSMM for our FP at about 8:15. Lots of people were leaving TSL at this point.
It was raining again, so we found a covered bench near the Lunchbox and waited.
Rode Aliens at 9. They were still letting day guests in even then. Waited about 15 minutes.
Rode Slinky 3 times between 9:30-10:30. Queue moved quickly, but it was pretty darn full.
MDE showed waits between 20-30 minutes all night and I would say that was accurate. Heard a few people complaining, but I knew what to expect. Fireworks while riding gets a thumbs up from me. So cool.
We had ice cream sandwiches and drinks between Slinky rides. Grabbed popcorn on the way to ST.
Headed to Star Tours, then Mickey and Minnie. No waits for those.
Headed to ToT. Husband and daughter rode while I waited. It took them about 30-40 minutes. They said people snuck popcorn on and it made a huge mess that needed to be cleaned.
At this point it was about 11:50 and my daughter declined another ride on Slinky. Good thing since the wait was still 30 minutes.
Headed out and caught Movie Magic at midnight. I was so happy to see it!!!
Bus was waiting for us at the stop when we walked up.
There were more people last night than I saw in March. Drinks were cold. Snacks plentiful all night.
We had a great time. I hope it continues when there are more things open. The ToT refurb definitely has an impact on this event.
