We had breakfast at Everything Pop. This time was biscuits and gravy, croissant, fruit cup, bottled water, oj.
I love croissants!
Today we were going to Studios. I was happy that with FP+ we didnt have to rush to TSM. Hope wanted to do Jedi Training, but I didnt want to get too early of a Jedi show so we would go there after RnR.
When we got there we saw this cute little set up to take pictures and we did. We planned to watch Monsters U before the trip, but it didnt happen.
Ooh, scary!
I was a little annoyed after reading how studios opens earlier than posted time everyday they didnt open early for us!
We went straight to RNR. But took a pic of ToT instead!
There was only one group in front of us. There's just something special about being one of the first on a ride. Hope didnt want to do it again right then but said it was okay. She decided against ToT. I was fine with this because ToT isnt one of my favorites and Dave didnt want to ride it even if we did.
Then we said we were heading to sign her up for Jedi Training. She then told us that she did NOT want to do Jedi Training. Now before the trip she really wanted to do this. I mean, she REALLY wanted to do this and now she didnt??? RED FLAG? Dave said he thought she should so we got in line to sign her up. That way if she decided she wanted to later it would still be an option. While they were in line I got TSM FP. It was 9:38 and the return time was 6:55.
We had a FP+ for Fantasmic! So unless we got to TSM! right at 6:55 and then speed walked to F! we would have to miss one of them.
When I got back to them they were at the desk checking in. Her return time is 4:10 for the 4:40 show.
Up next was Star Tours. We are all big Star Wars fans but Dave sometimes gets sick on this ride and doesnt usually ride it. He decided to give it a try since they made some changes.
We had the sequence with Yoda talking to us, pod races in the dessert, and being in the death star. Dave didnt get sick but didnt want to ride a second time. Hope & I decided to ride again since it was a walk on.
I really enjoyed the second time a lot more. This time we had Princess Leah, which wasnt as good as Yoda. I know they can computer generate Yoda to do anything and they have to use Carrie Fisher footage that they already have, but it was weird that she was talking to us but not looking at us. We went through a snowy area, met up with JarJar Binks, and the underwater was cool. I just liked it better.
Then we hopped in line for the Great Movie Ride.
We waited a few mins, but it wasnt long. This ride has a few of Hopes all-time favorites. Mary Poppins is one. I watched this a few times pre-Hope, but Ive watched it MANY times with her. It wasnt until watching it with her that I realize Dick van Dyke played the old guy in the movie.
We watched Indiana Jones just before this trip and she really liked it. She also enjoys ancient Egypt and has learned a few of the hieroglyphics, so I thought this would be a good picture.
By now we were ready to eat, but we tried in vain to get food. First we went to ABC and they were opening in 9 mins. We waited. After waiting 10 mins they said they were having issues and they didnt know how long it would be before they open. Then we went to Backlot Express which wasnt opening for another 30 mins. So at 11:06 we got a sugar funnel cake from Oasis Canteen and took it with us to snack on while we watched the Indy show. Dave and I hadnt watched this show in years and it was Hopes first time. Now that I know they are closing it, Im really glad we went.
WHAT!?! They're closing it?
After our show we headed back to ABC Commissary and at 12:09 got seafood basket, fries, bacon cheese angus, fries, chocolate mousse, seasonal cupcake, bottled water. The cup cake was super cute!
Yes it is!
Catch my next update to find out if we did Jedi Training, made it to F! and what all these red flags are about!
