Stayed at ASMovies. Filled to capacity Saturday, pool was crowded as well as food court but didnt matter to us. We were happy to be there. Had dinner at Whispering Canyon (awesome food) and got there 1/2 hour before our PS and it wasnt crowded then. Waited less than 5 to get in. When we left, HUGE line to get in.

Sunday Epcot - Low crowds. Walked onto Test Track in late morning. Left to go swim and came back and waited about 30 minutes to ride later in the day. Still not too bad. Went to Mexico to watch Illuminations around 8:00 and still found a nice place to sit on a planter. Excellent!

Monday MK - CROWDED! First time I've ever had to use fast pass in January. Only rode a couple things then went back to hotel for a rest. came back for spectro and got a seat just in back of the sidewalk, not on the sidewalk but the next row in by the garden just as you enter main street. We tried walking further up...NO WAY JOSE! Way too jammed. We did walk up further though to see Wishes.

Tuesday MGM - low crowds. Walked on RNR twice in a row. Did get fastpass for TOT though since DH wanted ice cream. LOL character everywhere! Went to see Sorcerer Mickey and there was only ONE person in line in front of us and NO one behind up at all. Rode everything that day and still had two hours to wait for Fantasmic. After we went to Epcot for EMH...what a waste of time. Will explain in a later post perhaps but don't expect to tour the countries. Total waste of time.

Weds AK and then back to MK for EMH - NO CROWDS at all. Did everything we wanted to do at AK with absolutey no wait at all. They were even calling people into Tough to be a Bug since it was so uncrowded. Got to MK around 6:00 (raining) took the train to toontown and started from there. Rain either scared people away or alot of people don't know about EMH. from 6:00 to 8:00 we did Train to toontown, Mickeys house, saw the princesses, rode barnstormed twice in a row without getting off, speedway, stopped for dinner at cosmic rays, snow white, peter pan, winnie the pooh, philharmagic, haunted mansion, magic carpets, saw some characters (robin hood, friar tuck, capt hook and smee), pirates of the carribean and decided to call it a day. All those rides between 6 - 8! It was awesome! Oh and I stopped to smoke a cigarette or two too. Definitely do EMH at MK if you get a chance. I did see some people without a wristband on. I will post more about that in another post sometime later.

Thurs MGM and Epcot - NO CROWDS - walked on RNR again two times in a row, went to epcot and did everything we wanted to do with no problem.

Monday was the only day we really saw crowds and that was the only day spectro was showing too so that could be why. They need to do that more than twice a week in my opinion.

Oh and I met a couple Disers too! One I was on the lookout for and one I met by accident on the lookout for the other. LOL For the life of me, I can't remember their names....nadine something was the first (sorry if I forgot your name). Met her on the way to see Sorcerer Mickey at MGM. The other I met at AK on the way to the Safari.

Oh and the only time we knew the dancers were there was because we saw the signs for them to check in when we passed by sports and music and we met a couple moms on the bus. They were too busy to be in the parks from what the moms said. Arrive Thurs, practice all day Fri, and Sat was competition. No problems at all with any silly girls or loud talking or practices. Wouldn't even have known they were there except that I read it on here.

AWESOME TIME!!!
 
We got back last night (mentioned you in my trip report..) Immediately after we saw you and your family, I got onto the "hot seat" at Millionaire" and got to the $250,000 question!!! So glad you also had a great time!
 
WOO HOO!! I was hoping you guys did good! :Pinkbounc Wish I would have popped in over there after finally meeting my hero Sorcerer Mickey! :wizard: I'm going to have to go check out your trip report. Haven't had time to do one yet. Still doing laundry. Talk about some good weather! Did you go to MK for EMH that night? It was raining but perfect riding weather!
 

Hi Kim! It was me you meet at AK! That safari was probably the worst I've ever been on though. Not too many animals out and they were far away. Usually I see them up closer to the vehicle. We wanted to try it again but had to cut the day short to go get ready for Cirque du Soliel. Glad to hear you all had a great time. We did too! I ended up getting my seniors on Splash Mountain on Thursday! They were so proud of themselves!LOL Nadine and Fred, sorry we missed you all.
