How early to arrive for CRT ADR at 8:15am?

ADR for Jan. 12. Looking forward to the quiet walk down Main St and pics at the castle without the crowds. How much time can we spend, or do we need to enjoy the walk and get seated?

Follow up ? ....after breakfast I thought we would have a head start to Toontown to get my 2 yr old daughter in line for the Fairies. Has that now moved to Main St.? What should we rush to after b'fast at 9:30? PS, son is 4.5; this is their third trip for Marathon Weekend.

For an 8:15am ADR, I would say be at the turnstiles by 8am (I don't think they will let you in any sooner than that) and then slowly walk to CRT enjoying the sights and taking in some really great pictures too. Plus make sure you get a family picture from one of the photopass photographers . As for your Toon Town idea, I don't know if you know this but Toon Town doesn't open up until 10am so after your breakfast, if you still wanted to head over there you will be waiting awhile for their RD to begin. I would go on a few rides in Fantasyland first and then about a 1/2 hour before Toon Town's RD, go on over there. Good luck and have a great trip.

Thanks. I didn't know that Toontown had it's own rope drop. Great suggestion.

I thought I had heard that all of those characters were moving to Main St. Can you confirm? That would change my strategy.

I believe they are, but I think they aren't planning on doing that until they close Toon Town due to the Fantasyland expansion, but I may be wrong. There has been so many speculations and theories of when and where the characters will be moving, that until there is an official statement made by Disney, I am not going to worry about it .

yep toon town opens at 10 am and honnestly even at 10:15, you will already have about an hour wait for the Fairies. At least that's how it was in November 1st when we went.
