We're back home and into the grind again. Just wanted to share a bit about our trip, not really a trip report, but more like a few of our experiences and observations. We were there Tuesday, May 9th to Friday May 12th. Me, DH, and DD (celebrating her 5th birthday!). We stayed at the GCH...

Oh! I just checked the calendar for times the parks will be open for the next few days and DL opens at 9am! So, EE at 8am, right? Gosh, I don't know if we can make it... I suppose we could leave San Diego at 5:45-6:00am? Ouch! But I really want to do EE... maybe catching it on Thursday will be...

Well, we're heading out tomorrow! Here's the plan: Leave San Diego 6:15am-ish, arrive and check-in the the GCH around 8am. When I confirmed the reservations, the person I spoke to denied that it is a perk of the resort hotels to allow EE with a hotel charge slip. Now, we have 3 day park...

Oh, okay, more details... If we got a Fastpass for Space Mt. as early in the morning as possible, like right at opening, and the window was 45 minutes away (like you said), how long could we approx. expect the wait to be when we came back for the ride?

When you get a Fastpass and return at the specified time, about how long on average is the wait? :thanks:

I've read several times in several places that you'll never see Mickey Mouse at Goofy's Kitchen? I'm wondering why that is? Thanks for enlightening me :)

I came up Aladdin. Fun!

I'm sure this comes up often, but could someone tell me EXACTLY what rides (by ride name, please) are typically available during EE? We head to DL from San Diego on Tues., May 9th and we plan to do EE because we'll be guests of a resort hotel (GCH). We'll leave SD earlier than I had anticipated...

What??? The cheerleader convention will be in L.A. or actually at DL? Wah! We're going the 9th-12th and were hoping crowds would be somewhat low. Oh well, maybe they won't like the same rides as our 4 yr. old ;)

Oh my gosh, I totally got violently ill after eating at that Greek restaurant! Love Seaport Village, though :)

You know, I've heard so many times about the special towel animals (?) and the turndown service with chocolates, but when we stayed last year there we got neither the towel animals or the chocolates. We did have the turndown service, though. What's up with that? I left a tip every day (stayed...

I figured out how to post pictures :) Here is my daughter giving Flik a big hug! She really likes him :)

Okay, I'm gonna try to post a picture of my daughter making a pizza. I've never posted a pic, so this might fail miserably.

And there's a little popsicle stick like thing in it that says the child's name so the waiter knows which child gets their pizza. My daughter had fun making the pizza, but didn't eat much of it. She was just turning 4 at the time.

... have a single rider line? We're going for our second time in May and DH wants to check it out before DD rides it (she is exactly the height of the height requirement). She loves this kind of thrill ride and I think she'll be fine, but since DH and I have never been on it, he wants to be sure...

Now is this just if you are staying at a DLR hotel, or if you bought the whole ticket/hotel package? We stayed at the GCH last year, but bought parkhoppers elsewhere and were told we couldn't do this? We're staying at the GCH again this year and would love a chance to do EE.

What if we want to come in to DL at the height of parade time? We watched the parade last year and thought that this year we'd try to ride some rides while (hopefully) the majority of the crowds enjoy the parade. What I remember is that when we were to watch the parade (the circle area... I'm...

GCH to PP? We're staying at GCH and think we'd like to have dinner one night at a PP restaurant. Is it like 10 minutes? 5? 15? A big pain or easy? Thanks! :)

Can anyone tell me how they liked the character breakfast at Storyteller's? We're staying at the GCH this year (we did last year as well) and haven't tried breakfast there. Whenever we walked past in the mornings last year, it was really packed. Is it generally crowded? Food good? Service okay...

We bought one last Tuesday night right before the fireworks at a cart by the Partner's Statue. Sorry to say it wasn't what we'd hoped. Very salty and dry.
