Well, we were at WDW on the 16th and it was so crowded you could barely move at times
We started out in Tomorrowland and did the Stitch thing (which we could have skipped, we both smelled chili dog burps for half the day!) and then the Monsters, Inc. comedy show which was hilarious! We got our fast pass for Space Mountain (thankfully because the wait was 60 minutes) and headed to Fantasyland. We did the tea cups and It's a Small World and then high tailed it back for Space Mountain. While my daughter and I did Space Mountain, my dad and his wife went to Liberty Square for the Hall of Presidents (which bummed me out because I really enjoy that one and I didn't know they were going to do it without us). After Space Mountain, we went back to Libery Square, which was a challenge because there was a massive parade of itty bitty cheerleaders, majorettes and dancers.. hundreds of them. All their families were in that area too so that was when you couldn't even move. We were going to get in line for the Haunted Mansion but it was a 70 minute wait at that point! We ended up missing that one. Into Frontierland and got a fast pass for Big Thunder Railroad and worked our way to Adventureland. The parades had just ended and there were people everywhere. The Pirates of the Carribean line was listed at 110 minutes at that point and the fast pass time was way past when I thought my dad and his wife would still want to be there (we had a two hour drive back to his house when we were done) so we missed that
We went to the Tiki Room (always one of my faves). We got in line for the Jungle Cruise, which was listed at 40 minutes when we got in line. However, an entire family reunion showed up with fast passes at the same time. After we'd been waiting for 40 minutes, we realized we still had a whole nother buliding of lines to go through and my dad wasn't dealing with the line well (he's a pretty impatient guy). His wife got out of line to answer work phone calls. A few minutes later, we got out of line too. The wait time listed then was 80 minutes, which was far more accurate. So, we headed back to Big Thunder Railroad where we had to wait about 15 minutes before our fast passes were good. The wait then was only about 10 minutes (although the guy at the gate said it would be around 30 minutes.. with the fast pass!). We headed back to Main Street to do our shopping and then left. It was just a quickie trip this time so we did miss a lot but we'll be back again.. next time, staying in one of the resorts so we have more time and no grandparents to "slow as down" as my daughter said!
