1. We were surprised that the music in the IASW queue was so inaudible. A bartender later that evening said (to someone else without me asking) that they lowered the music because the repetition we driving guests nuts. No big deal either way to me, but interesting.

2. Soarin Classic was awesome - as others have reported, the projection was crisp and perfect. Also, not only were the scents working, but they were stronger than I have ever experienced. We were in the new theater, which in itself was cool. All new carpet and paints.

3. Also rode the new Toy Story Mania track, which was cool. Wait times are definitely down for the ride with the new addition.

4. A CM (Tyler) at MK doled out some magic and gave us fastpasses for the family during dinner at Tony's, which we used for a second ride on SDMT. In fact, the CMs have been nothing but phenomenal the whole trip - nothing bad to say.

5. My DD6 rode Everest and Kali for the first time today and loved them, which was awesome.

6. Animal Kingdom today had virtually no lines, but unfortunately the weather chased us out before the nighttime activities. Looks like the night activities will have to wait til next trip for us unfortunately, though I am not too upset about it having taken a peak at the video of the Jungle Book show. My kids would not have appreciated it, nor do I think it would thrill my wife or me. Bummed about missing the nighttime safari and Tree of Life though.

7. Hitting Star Wars dessert party tomorrow and Skipper Canteen the day after (with 4 more days total), so looking forward to those firsts.
 
Star Wars dessert party is wonderful! We went two weeks ago. Be sure to line-up by 8:00/8:15 to get your choice of tables. People were lining up by 7:45 pm and they let everyone in starting at 8:30 pm. The Blue Milk pannacotta was so good and they ended up running out so take that one the first time through if you want to try it!
 
We rode Soarin' this past Sunday, and I also noticed how strong the scents were, especially the pine scent when flying through the forest.
