It's always a shock to walk into the dining area as they have the a/c on full blast and the music playing over the speakers is LOUD!! But we had decided the night before what everyone wanted to eat so it didn't take long to get it purchased and dig in!
The line to get on the bus wasn't too bad and we made it on the first bus, excited that we would be there when it opened!! But that wasn't to be as when we got there, I think every other resort had beat us and they were already allowing people in through the gate!!
Before we headed to our first ride, we had to check the kids in for Jedi Training!! And of course we missed the sign where it was to be but we finally got there and put their names on the list for after lunch! And then we raced to the new Toy Story Land!
That sun was bright!! But the temps that day were the lowest of our 4 days and only reached 79 so we were happy with that and glad to see the sun after they'd had days of rain!!
Our ride on the Slinky Dog Dash was the longest wait all day but we knew the lines would only get longer!! It was a cute ride - a slinky dog roller coaster and the kids loved it!! As we walked by this, I just had to have a picture because I remember the girls playing with these types of items!! So fun!!
We had our 3 fast passes for the day in the morning and we all loved Toy Story Mania which is shooting at items from a little car - and the Star Tours was awesome!
I was disappointed to find out that "The Great Movie Ride" had been shut down. Amazing how some of these rides come and go!!
We ate an early lunch which worked out great - Jill had discovered that almost all of the food places we had picked to eat did mobile app ordering!! So while we were standing in a line, we could have everybody decide what they wanted. Then you ordered and paid for it. Once you actually got to the eating place, you clicked on your phone that you were there - and about 3 to 5 min later you picked up your food at a special window! It was AWESOME and we didn't have to stand in those long ordering lines!!
Aleah really enjoyed the Frozen Sing Along which was our last Fast Pass (meaning you basically walk onto the ride ahead of everybody else in the standby line) and of course it's ALWAYS nice to sit down in those nice cool theaters!!
Then we took the kids to their Jedi training and watched them - it was really cool and the kids loved it!! After they were taught their moves, a performance was held on this same stage and the show was great!! Aleah and Parker are in the second row.
All of Jill's family wanted to do the Tower of Terror!!! Been there, done that - no more for us!! So we got ice cream and enjoyed sitting on a bench relaxing!
We enjoyed a couple of shows in the afternoon and got one more fast pass for the shooting game again - the "green men" came along a couple different times and they're always fun to watch!
Ice cream for the Savage's after we watched Beauty and the Beast! Love those ears on Parker's ice cream!!
Jill and Robby also rode the Rock 'n Roller Coaster while Glenn and I took the kids to another ride - we all met back in Toy Story Land for dinner and then walked back out to the main part to watch the Star Wars Spectacular show! It was amazing!!!!!
Getting back to the hotel on the buses is always long as everyone is leaving the park!! And of course we're all tired (18,500 steps that day I believe!!) The kids rec'd their gifts that night - more glow bands and a book for each of them to put their pressed pennies in!! An awesome day!!
