Once satisfied with my first day at Animal Kingdom, I headed back to DHS to use my TSM FastPass.
I love that DHS is such a small park, it takes no time to walk to
Pixar Place and get on the ride. The FastPass line is not quite as exciting as the regular line, but it's a much happier place to be speeding through!
I rode alone again, but didn't do as well this time as I did last time. I got the Beaver prize once again. I wish that you could actually buy your prize at the end of the ride, that would be fun!
My next stop was TOT to see what the wait time was and also to get a FastPass. The return time on the FastPass was 7pm so that gave me plenty of time for Rockin Roller Coaster.
Rockin Roller Coaster is, now next to TSM, my favorite ride at DHS. I waltzed through a completely empty Single Rider Line and quickly reached the top of the queue. Nobody in front of me, nobody behind me, heaven. If you are alone or just don't care if you ride with other people, use the Single Rider Line. There is nothing better. And I think that RNRC has the best one. You go through the preshow like the other riders, but you get the top section of the show. Then you quickly line up and are on the ride. I was in the top section of the preshow all alone, it was awesome!
Again, here's just me with arms up!
I still had plenty of time before my FastPass was up, so I stopped for ice cream. I had seen a picture of the Flavor Burst on the Food Porn thread and just knew I had to get one. The cart is just outside of the RNRC exit, so it worked out perfectly. I got the Cotton Candy. It was, eh. Mostly just like Vanilla ice cream, but with a little tiny extra flavor. The good news is that I love Vanilla ice cream, so it hit the spot anyway!
After literally inhaling the ice cream, I ran back through the Single Rider Line. I literally could marry the Single Rider Line I love it so much. If only every ride could have one, life would be perfect!
This time, I made my Rock N' Roll face
After I got off the ride, I took some Photopass pictures. Don't have the CD yet, but I should soon enough. Then you can all see what a spazz I was when the guy told me to make my Rock n' roll face for the picture!
One more time through the ride...this time, I pretended to be asleep. It's the little things that thrill me.
My fastpass time for Tower of Terror was up, so I made the quick trip over. The wait time was only 10 minutes, so I probably didn't need to use the FP, but I did anyway. The people in front of me wanted to take me on as a part of their group. They couldn't believe I was doing such a scary ride alone! I thanked them, but quickly ran out of the preshow and veered right at the split. ALWAYS GO RIGHT! No one ever thinks to go that way for some reason. I was cruising through the line when the CM, another nice girl from Taiwan, called out to me, "Single Rider?" I said, yep! and hopped into place.
Before the ride started, the CM took a little kid, who was sleeping in his mother's arms and asked if it would be okay to measure him. The parents obliged and he hit the mark just fine. I couldn't understand why you would bring your now just waking up kid on the ride, but they did. The ride was great as always and I screamed my face off.
Again - what is with people not putting their arms up??
As soon as we got off the ride, right where you see your picture, the previously sleeping little kid stopped dead in his tracks and puked. Yes, that's the second time in less than 8 hours somebody had puked within 15 feet of me.
After the puking, I decided to call it a night at DHS and head to my next destination.
As I exited the park, I had a decision to make. Did I head to MK to start off the EMH night or did I go to Epcot to ride Spaceship Earth. I really wanted to see the changes to Spaceship Earth. I saw the Friendship Boat was waiting at the dock and my decision was made. I hopped aboard for a nice 20minute ride to Epcot.
The ride was nice, I got to see many resorts that I had not seen before. The Boardwalk looks like a fun place to stay.
On the boat there was these two guys in front of me, they were a couple. About halfway through the ride, they started laying on each other. In full view of the whole boat and the captains. Since I was sitting right behind them I was really tempted to say something, but I figured they would have been offended. But two guys, two girls, a guy and a girl, whatever the situation, it was totally inappropriate!!! And not just for Disney, for any place in public. Good thing it was only a 20 minute ride.
I walked as quickly as my legs could carry me to Spaceship Earth. I really forget how huge this park really is. It's also the only park that I can get lost in. Good thing Spaceship Earth is huge and easy to spot!
It was a great ride, I loved the updates! The girl in the go-go boots is hilarious. I took lots of pictures, but without the flash, most of them didn't come out too well.
From there I headed to the exit, there was nothing else I really felt the need to do that night.
I took the Monorail to MK...yes, I managed to hit all of the WDW between park transportation in one day!
Up next...Extra Miserable Hours
