I am with you, not sure I would want to ride after being stuck on the ride.
I don't think I have ever seen Muppets that packed!
I don't ride it to begin with so I would never ride it after seeing it stuck. My hubby on the other hand jumped right on!
Oh the crowds!! Our favorite saying became, "These people are all going home soon, right??" Spoiler alert - They stick around for a while!
Great update! Muppets cheesy? I never noticed -I love it and never miss it when we go. Of course, my children are older now so I don't have to drag them along ...only my wife. What do you think of the Muppets TV series? Lots of "smart" humor.
We love the Muppets too! I've never heard of the Muppets series. I may have to look that up!
Joining in. Love your report so far! Would have loved to surprise my family with a trip to see Osborne Lights this year, but it just was not in the cards. I never did get to see them...
It was such a sad night on our last night there. We literally stood in the center of the street with hubby's arms wrapped around us as we cried. It had become our family tradition....our way to start Christmas season and now it's gone forever. I will surely miss them!
Loving your trip report so far! You have a beautiful family!
Ahh POFQ!
It's so pretty there!
Those CROWDS!
My anxiety would be through the roof for sure! Thank goodness for FP right?
Looking forward to hearing more!
Thank you for the compliment! I think my boys are cute but then again, I may be totally biased!!
We love POFQ. I wish it were included in more discounts.
FP was great but with only three we still waited in LOADS of lines!!
DH and I just returned last night from a 5 night trip to the World, so I'm catching up on everyone's TR's and trying to get moving on my Nov. one! Isn't the Hollywood Hotel cool inside? It's my favorite ride in all the parks so I've been on it "a few" times, and I definitely would've ridden again after getting stuck lol.
I've never seen the Muppets pre-show area so crowded
We all like it and do it once every trip; I will admit though we skipped it this time since the kids were home with Nana
Can't wait to read your November one! Definitely share here when you start it. It is such a cool ride queue. I'm glad that I finally walked through it. OH Hubby had no problem jumping on it. Me on the other hand.....I never ride it.
We like Muppets but that was more like Sardines!
I've been thinking about switching from DL to WDW at the end of the year. I was thinking mid-Nov or early Dec. But after seeing your photos, it looks like it's just nuts at WDW all the time. And then with all these rides with FP attached, there's nothing to get in line for that isn't being slowed down by FP. This thread is making me think I should save my money. And you haven't even got to the bad part yet!!!!
We love WDW and have never been to DL so I can't compare. I think going on weeks that aren't school holidays works a lot better crowd-wise. However, being a teacher, my days are limited.
Joining in!
Love the trip so far. I've heard horror stories about how busy the holiday season was at Disney, and your pictures just back that statement up. Some of those crowd pics surprised me. I'm sure it was a little disheartening to see such long waits wherever you went.
Love the shot of you and your DH on the Speedway.
I'm already looking forward to hearing about the stepsister proposals in May.
Glad to hear the Wishes FP allowed for at least one thing not to be crowded. Small favors...
Very curious to hear about the alternative TR title story. Also a little worried, though. Certainly doesn't sound very magical.
Yeah this was the worst crowds we have ever seen. I really think that the Osborne Lights drew more people than normal.
Oh DH is a hoot and was cracking me up on the Speedway. Our poor car was going from one side to the other while he had pretend "road rage".
Yes we need to bring our ring pops in May!
We LOVE the Wishes FP!
Oh yeah it's coming up! I may not get to it tonight but I will get there soon.
Following along!
That TOT line
Isn't it crazy!!??!?! I had to snap a picture of that craziness!! Why would you even get in that line?
Hi joining in! Fantastic trip report so far
This is my favorite picture so far:
I have a similar one with my DS from when we ate dinner at 1900 park Fare...she was doing the kissy-kissy thing and he was like whhaaattt????
too funny
Wow the parks sure looked crowded! When we went this past summer (we always go the 3rd week of August since I teach too and have to be back by labor day) its was PACKED (they had given free dining to the UK was what I heard as well as free dining to the US which is why it was much more crowded than it usually is in late August. There were 30 minute + waits for just about everything.... we weren't used to it so it definitely put a little damper on going to the parks, you know?
Anyway, happy to be joining in and can't wait to read more!

Free dining does bring in the crowds!!! This DS actually puckered up at one point and the step sister pulled away very very surprised!! lol.....
Okay guys, I'm worn out. I promise I will get to the next update but not tonight! Have a great week!
