It is Day 2 of Everyday at Disney in 2017! We went to Hollywood Studios today which is definitely my favorite park to park. That sentence sounds funny. But I find Hollywood Studios to be the most convenient place to drive to.
Here are 5 observations from our day:
1. The parks are still decorated for Christmas and playing Christmas music. Everything was just as festive as it was before the holiday. So if you are wanting to see the parks decorated for Christmas, looks like you still can!
2. You can also line up for Toy Story Mania along the road that runs in front of Echo Lake (across from Hollywood and Vine). They merge this line with the regular line that forms on Hollywood Boulevard.
3. I scored 183,000 on Toy Story Mania. My goal is to hit 200,000. I am trying to beat my husband on this game so I try to practice every time we go plus the baby loves it. I’ve found that if you hit all of the lava balloons that appear in the balloon game, the volcano will explode and rain down high value balloons.
4. The Great Movie Ride is drawing larger crowds since almost everything else is closed in the parks. Molly Kate rode this for the first time today and she cuddled me most of the ride. She was not crazy about the shoot out scene with the gangsters or the scene from Alien.
5. We went to Star Tours at 10:30 AM. Usually it has about a 15-20 minute wait at this time. But today was extra busy and it had already hit 40 minutes. By the time the kids got off it, it was up to 50! The kids were happy that instead of going to Jakku every single time, they are now randomizing it along with Kashyyk, Hoth and Tatooine and the hologram transmissions come from BB-8, Admiral Ackbar, Princess Leia or Yoda now.
Be sure to look for the Vlog from Day 2! It will be posted on Wednesday, January 4th. We need 2 days to edit them.
