Early Entry / Princess Breakfast

[kbkids]

We have an 8:50 PS for the Princess Breakfast on Early Entry morning at Epcot. We've never done early entry before, but if we got there at opening, would we have time to ride Test Track and still get to the breakfast on time? I wasn't sure how quickly the line built up at Test Track.

Also, if not, can you get Fast Passes during Early Entry? Like, could I grab one as we're headed back to the World Showcase for breakfast so we could hopefully walk right on to Test Track when we're through with breakfast?

I've heard that even on an EE day at EPCOT, Test Track fills up very, very fast. If I were you, I would grab your Fastpass and then just head on over to the world showcase for your Princess breakfast and see how that works. I would rather miss riding Test Track if the wait is too long than miss my character breakfast.

You are so blessed to be able to go to through Disney after what we went through here in P'Cola after Ivan....enjoy your trip!!

I ate right through my Disney savings because of hurricane Ivan, but I suppose I can take some of my income tax refund next year and build with it again.

Thanks Denise! I wasn't sure if they had Fast Passes available during early entry or not. That will work out perfectly, as that is literally the only thing my kids like to do in Epcot. So, we'll eat, ride Test Track, and hop on the monorail to MK.

We went in May for my DS's birthday, and this is my DD's birthday trip. I was so worried that we were going to have to cancel it, but everything has worked out. We live in Pace - neighborhood with no trees - so we had no damage at all - just a few shingles and our back fence got blown over by the tornado that hit Pace High School.
My parents live over by University Mall and weren't as lucky - tree on their house and two more in the front leaning over. The trees are so large that the roots from the two that are leaning are pulling on the foundation of the house, so they've got to come down too - unfortunately I doubt insurance will cover those two as they haven't actually damaged the house YET!

How did you guys come out? We've got friends in Gulf Breeze - they live in Paradise Bay, and we haven't been able to get in touch with them yet. Not sure how they made out. Hope things weren't too bad for you. It kills me looking at the pictures of Pensacola Beach. I grew up here, and it's tough looking at houses that we've rented out there over the years - they're just gone!

DH and I came out just fine. We live in an apartment complex and any damage is taken care of by them. The only damage is lost siding and shingles. Fences and trees down, but all away from the complexes.

We came home Monday, to power and my two cats that I left behind did just fine!

I've been helping out at the Ruby's here in Gulf Breeze and I've heard some horror stories from those in the areas of lost houses with nothing but foundation left and neighborhoods that look like a war zone. I drove through one last night....had to turn around coz it was heart wrenching.

People in my store, Ruby's on Hwy 29 are working in whatever clothes they can find to wear because they are still without power. Our water ban was just lifted yesterday. I realized after walking through those doors yesterday how blessed I am to be where I am considering P'Cola took such a major hit being on the immediate east of the storm.

Glad you did well. I'm looking forward to building my Disney funds back up again. Have a wonderful time on your trip.
