Okay now is the time to post my TR on Saturday.
I also forgot to mention when I went to the parks on Thursday, I was hoping that my new Premier AP would work. When I got to the main entrance and gave my AP to the CM, when she scanned it, it showed my picture on the screen.
I was relieved that my Premier finally worked especially having so much trouble with it last month. Than when I had dinner at RSV, it had giving me the 15% discount for the food. I'm glad that it worked during my trip and now I am hoping it will be fine when I go to WDW next month. I would assume that it should be fine, but I was planning on going to the park when I get there on Friday Dec. 10 on the day my DA and I arrive in Orlando. I hope u read my live TR from WDW in less than three weeks.
Back in my hotel at BW Stovalls, I got up 7:00am in the morning. I knew that I couldn't go in the park during MM since I am not staying on-property just like my October trip and don't have a PH ticket with a MM on it. I also brought my tripod with me so I can videotape the 2:30pm "A Christmas Fantasy" parade. I didn't want to go back to the hotel and pick it up so I decided to bring it with me and put it in the lockers at the DLR. I left my room at 7:30 and head over to have the continental breakfast at the hotel. I just had orange juice and a bagel in the morning. Than it was off to DL to get there when it opens at 8am in the morning.
I got in DL when it opened at 8am and there were only a few people outside the gate but most of the people were waiting inside MS USA. I also took pics of the CALIFORNIA letters for the last Holiday season and I have took better ones on Saturday, I will post those later.
The first thing I did when I got inside the park was to head on over to the lockers right by the Cone Shop. I got the large locker and my tripod just barely fit inside the locker. I had use the large locker outside the main entrance of DL right by the GR. It was np fitting inside the locker and like what the reports said that DL has upgraded all the lockers with a keypad at each one instead of going to one of the main screens and punching in the numbers.
After I put my tripod in the locker, I was heading straight over to Tomorrowland until I see the radio broadcasting booths right by the Hub. I remember that DL had a private party for the radio broadcasting but there were a lot of them from different cities on the West Coast. I have seen radio companies from Utah, Arizona, and of course California. I had also see that they are videotaping right in front of SB castle.
After seeing the event going right by the Hub, I went over to the Tomorrowland and the first thing I did was get a FP for SM. I knew that I could have just got on SM since it was a 10 min wait, but I had to get the pictures of the ride vehicles at the other lands.
After getting the FP for SM, I head straight over to Adventureland and got on Indy. As always in the morning Indy was not that crowded and I got on the ride in just less than 5 minutes. I also took the picture of the ride vehicle of Indy with my Sony camcorder with the night shot.
After Indy, I was about to go on HMH, but it was too early in the morning and I know that I could walk-on the ride later during the day. (But that was a mistake for me later during the day. I will talked about that later on this thread.) I decided to go on the DLRR and ride it towards ToonTown depot and head over to IASWH. Here are some pics of the NOS stations as well as a wreath for the quest and I got to ride on the C.K. Holliday with Holiday 5 car set with the Lilly Belle parlor car.
After I got off the DLRR from ToonTown Station, I went straight over to IASWH. There was no one there and I just got on the ride immediately. When I was on IASWH, it took longer to get off the ride since the CM are adding more boats to the ride. From the time I got on and got off it was around 19 minutes until it was finished.
Than it was time to head on over to Tomorrowland and get on SM and use my FP. I walked over to FL and than I remember to take a ride vehicle photo of Matterhorn Mountain Bobsled.
After the picture of the Matterhorn Bobsled I also took a picture of FNSV submarines.
I head on over to SM and it said that it was still a 10 min wait and I showed my FP to the CM and I walked thru the FP line and when I got to the line that connect the standby line there was no CM and I just walked in. I believe it was a 7 min wait to get on the ride. I also got to be in front on the ride. Here is the SM ride vehicle with the night shot.
Here is my picture after the ride on SM. As you can see that I was in the front with my video camera as I was videotaping the ride in night shot.
After SM, I went over to BLAB and got on in just 5 min. It was around 9:10am when I got on the ride and as always I had to get a pic of the ride vehicle.
After BLAB, I got a FP for BLAB as a souvenir. Than it was around 9:25am and I decided it was time to head on over to DCA and do the other activities at DCA.
I will write more of my TR later tonight.
Thx for reading another part of my incomplete TR.
. I'm getting excited to hear your TR next month.
