Today we were returning to Hollywood Studios, hoping that the rides wouldnt be closed down like yesterday!
The weather was definitely turning, it felt much warmer & the forecast was mid 60s.
We made it to the park in time for the opening ceremony again, and quickly walked to Toy Story Mania with the crowd (I always find it funny that despite being told to walk, there are still so many people that try & run then cast members tell them to slow down!)
Tinsel in tinsel town
Pixar Place
Tangled!
And something I think is rarely seen
5 minute wait posted at TSMM!
We were among the first people on the ride for the day.. the car we got into had no one exiting!
I liked how the games had been updated to include Toy Story 3 characters.
Steve won, as usual!
We saw the green army men outside, I really like how they interact with guests.
Next we headed up Sunset Boulevard to check in to the Hollywood Tower Hotel.
We both adore this ride! There was minimal wait time too.
As we walked around to Rock n Roller Coaster we noticed how many people were now streaming into the park, so glad we always try to make it for rope drop.
RnRC had a 20 minute wait posted, but again we walked straight through to the pre-show..
Hidden mickey..
Im always terrified at the start of this roller coaster, but enjoy it!
Wed done the big three and it was only 9.45am time for breakfast! We stopped at sunset ranch on Sunset Boulevard for pastries, juice & coffee.
Unfortunately, once again I hadnt charged my camera.. so pictures are a bit sparse for the next part of the day!
We went on the Great Movie Ride the wait was about 15 minutes and we saw the movie clips two times before it was our time.. never mind, I love how its themed in there! We had a good tour guide but the gangster wasnt great Ive only ever seen the cowboy scene come to life once maybe they only do that one in the peak season?
Next up was Muppets 3D, I like this more & more each time we see it! Its even better now its been put into HD and cleaned up.
Steve suggested we went to see the Indiana Jones Stunt show we bought two bottles of diet coke & got there quite early, but got really good seats in the middle, just behind where the show producers/sound people sit. We both enjoyed the show a lot, Id forgotten a lot of it.
We stopped for lunch at the ABC Commissary I had a chicken curry with rice (really tasty & such an usual dish for a fast food restaurant!), Steve had a double cheese burger which he said was okay but wished hed ordered the curry too after trying it.
Next we went to the Animation Courtyard I wasnt too worried about seeing the film, but we did want to catch a glimpse of..
Lotso! The line was pretty long so we didnt meet him, and to be honest hes a pretty mean bear, not sure I want to hug him
We also saw Mickey, Mr Incredible & Frozone there .. we had a go on the what disney character are you game, Steve was Scar!!
We wandered back towards Tower of Terror, the wait time was only 20 minutes so we went on it again this time, when the elevator doors opened at the top.. a workmen/engineer was walking across a ladder on the building!! Everyone laughed he froze, not knowing what to do.. then waved & smiled before we plummeted down again!
