How is Wishes viewing from...

the dessert party at the noodle station? If anyone has been I'd appreciate any info you might offer. We have this booked for our first night with m-i-l, aince she has never seen Wishes before, and has limited mobility through the crowds. Wondering what to expect as far as viewing is concerned.

If you have been I'd love some feedback!

At the Noodle station it is not as crowded as Main St but, you would get a nice view of the castle. You could see the view by day and if you dont like it you might find another viewing area.

The general public can't go to the Noodle Station to view Wishes anymore.

There is now a "Dessert Party" in that location. See the info in the above post.

(Nobody knows if this party will be continued into the future.)

My family and I just did the wishes party the other night. I think that hands down, the best viewing of wishes is from main street because you'll be able to see the castle straight on and the firework effects that are supposed to surround the castle actually do surround the castle. From other places off to the side (including the noodle station) the effects are kind of offset from the castle and the experience isn't quite the same.

Now, that said, the noodle station isn't really a bad view... you can see the castle and the light effects on it, but be aware that because of the angle the fireworks will be slightly offset. You can still see all the fireworks and you'll definitely enjoy the show, but it's not the perfect viewing location.

Also note that because of the roof of the noodle station that you'll need to walk up and stand at the rail (if your MIL isn't on a scooter I don't think anyone would mind if she brought a chair from one of the tables to sit on). Our table was one of the closest to the rails, but we stiill couldn't really see much of the fireworks from the table (although we did have a great view of the castle while we were eating). There is a limited number of people allowed in, so it was not at all crowded at the rail and it was a very friendly atmosphere, so you shouldn't have any problem finding a spot for your MIL to stand (or sit).

HTH,
Brett
