News Round Up 2019

[scrappinginontario]

I hope they improve the flow in SWGE. We ordered from Aloha Aisle last week and it was basically a free-for-all. Very little organization and nobody really knew when to go to the counter. When my app said my order was ready I joined a line of about 12 people who had the same message, and then waited another 15 mins to get to the front of the line for them to make my order.

Normally I'm a big fan of mobile ordering but I will say at busier locations it still requires some enhancing.

Is anyone else hoping this Disney Book gets published http://michaelperaza.blogspot.com/2019/05/the-55ers-pioneers-who-setteled.html I think it would be awesome to learn about some of the year 1 CMs at Disneyland

A look at the Kyber Crystals used in the Laightsaber building .... Sounds like a really fun and unique experience

The structure for the now closed Mickey's Backyard BBQ at Fort Wilderness was torn down today. That was the one meet and greet my kids liked when they were little. We've never been a meet n greet family, but that one was a load of fun. Maybe when they are done building the monstrosity next door they will find a place to put it back. Another memory consumed by this misplaced resort...

One thing I'm really excited for is that land crowded with people and a bunch of kids swinging their lightsabres around. (And yes, my kid was once one of those kids.)

yup - looks like all the stars from the new movie. If you want to hear a girl scream "I Love You" over and over then watch the video out on instagram

Aloha Isle is one of the worst examples of how to do mobile ordering. They should probably just get rid of it there. I usually put in my order before I get there and then immediately get in the mobile ordering line, even before it says it's ready. There are usually others that have done that too.
