Few firsts, friends & H. P. an Oct. TR - New 3/4 - THE END...

[Native NYer]

I love the theming of TSM!
It's worth waiting in the standby line at least once to see everything.

 

[mickeyfan71]

I agree with ya on the theming-I love it. I can't wait to take my mom and son through it in October. I've made a note to make sure we get there early and go straight to the ride!

TSM was "walk right on" last week. did it twice in a row. My high score was 140,000ish.

You're right, the theming is wonderful!! You're also right.....once is enough to wait 90 minutes!!! Fast pass from now on!!!!

Hi Scott,

long time lurker (years!) on the Dis and also on your trip reports. Your reports are my favorite of all, love your commentary, the snippets of video, and your photos. Its great to read reports from folks who really "get" WDW!

so, how exactly does one get to become an ip-dipper? someday would love to get to meet / say hi to you all!

we are new DVC owners as well, as of Black Friday 2010 when they had the sale at the DVC store in Long Island. worth the trip! our first stay will be in Aug. 2011.

thanks for your reports, looking forward to reading your blog too!

We will be in WDW in August too!!!!!

englishrose,

we'll be there Aug. 7 - 15! our gang of 7 and our first stay at BLT what about you?

I love TSM, it is the bestest. We are really competitive, I have better accuracy he just does not stop shooting at everything so he wins. I can hear in my head "Let's break some plates". One day we had the b-day FP's, rope drop FP's and did the regular line back to back. I think we went a total of 5 times that day. My arm hurt though. The que and Mr. Potato head schtick is hilarious. I love Stinky Pete!!!!!! I am going to bring a Mr. Potato Head with me and demand my Bazillion Dollars Reward! That was a really great post

Vinny always gets better accuracy than me. I go for points.
That is a lot of times. It is a game geared more to men to play.
The queue and potato head were fantastic. Loved it.
Thanks

Love the photos of the regular line, I have never been only thru the fastpass line.

I have to try an get there early enough in May to take a look.

U should try it once.

TSM is definitely my favorite at DHS. Everyone I go through the queue I find myself taking more pictures even though I have all of them already! There is just so much to look at there.

 

[Yankeemouse]

scott,

home resort is BLT, but we want to stay at all of them. great black friday deal for Bay Lake...have been thinking about DVC for years, and when the offer came along, we couldn't refuse!

With Buzz and Woody done we decided to walk around. We soon found ourselves here.

We then got in line and the guy said from this point it will be 45 minutes. We decided not to wait because we wanted to see American Idol being we had never seen it. We went through a side door to exit along with some other people.

Love this statue.

Along the way I finally found the umbrella. As you can see they were setting up for Christmas already.

A little Christmas in October.

I see you.

Walking

I love this fountain too.

We thought about going into

however the time was against us. So I took pics of the fountain instead.

We did go into

looked around and did not really see anything I wanted. We continue on.

I CANNOT WAIT

I never noticed the Ewok village. They had the jedi academy going on here for sign up.

I surrender

We did stop for a snack

This was mine

delicious.

Walking to AI.

Time to stop.

Up next

More of the day. 2 more updates to go then Vinny's pics.

 

[DawnMaree]

Loved the picture overload of TSM. We haven't experienced that yet either. While I'm excited about it, I'm a bit bummed with our family of 5. Stinks when we can't all be together.

So, you haven't had much time, but you have a snack and take a zillion pics...

 

[englishrose47]

Vinnie is a POLE DancerGreat Update Scott !!!

 

[PrincessAlways]

Love all the fountain pics! I wonder how the updated Star Tours will be?? I haven't seen anything about it.

 

[Charleston Princess]

I can't wait for the new Star Tours ride!!! Is it okay if I steal your picture of the billboard for my Star Tours update over on my PTR?

Vinnie on the Streets of America is too funny!

 

[Lesprivate]

You finally found the fountain. I can't wait to ride Star Tours in May

Snacks are always better in Disney.

 

[Yankeemouse]

does the umbrella squirt water? I heard that it used to? I have never noticed that snack bar before, those treats look yummy! I can never find soft serve when I want it! Is yours a root beer float? mmmmmmm....

that whole walk and snack took 15 minutes the most. it was quick.

Vinnie is a POLE DancerGreat Update Scott !!!

didn't even think of that. Thanks

thanks.
from what I understand it is going to be a 3d simulator ride with 12 different locations so the ride is not the same as the time u rode it the time before. I could be wrong but that is how I understood it to be.

me too.
go right ahead. steal away.
