We ate at GG last Friday morning and had an 8am ADR. We arrived at the front entrance at 7:30am. We were let in at approx. 7:50am and it seemed like most people were headed towards FEA and Akershus. I had heard if you were the first family to arrive you could see all of the characters at once. So we walked briskly (even though no one was headed our way) and were the first ones into the Land Pavilion and to GG. We were seated right away and met all of the characters, got lots of photos, autographs, and then began breakfast. At 8:30am were were about done and our server asked us if we were planning to ride Soarin' and suggested we be down there by 8:45am to beat the people from the front. So we got the check, paid, and headed down about 8:40am. We never felt rushed, met all of the characters more than once, and it was so laid back. We were the second family in the Soarin' line and they let us in right when we arrived. We got to ride Soarin' all by ourselves with the other family. There were only 10 of us in the entire theater!!! Then they let us stay on and we got to ride it again. We could have ridden a third time but the kids wanted to move on. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish!! Hope you're able to have a similar experience. It was definitely a great morning!
