I am interested in learning if Splash and BTMRR are mobbed earlier not that SM is closed. What are the wait times (standby and FP) for Splash and BTMRR between 10-11 am?

Have great fun and thanks for the updates!

Have a great trip! Eleven more days before we head down. Really curious to hear updates on the crowds!

hello boys, girls and all my fellow DISers!

what can i say today was everything i hoped it would be. magic express was a breeze! checked into the resort with no line! came in my room and they had towels on our bed in the mickey shape and i knew i was home.

went to epcot, no line to get in the park at all. the gardens were all done up for the garden festival. its the first time i have been duriing this fest and it was breathtaking! now if anyone knows me and what i do for a living, to hear me talking like this may suprise you lol. next and most surprising my friends the park was from a 1(empty) to a 10(packed) it was a pleasent 3!went to the mexican resturant and got in with no reservation. great food and great service. yayyyy and there was a lady behind us on test track who said that was the busiest park she went to all week. test track wait was 30 minutes. went from there to character spot 20 minute wait. most of the rides posted on the wait boards were inbetween 0 wait to 20 minutes. went back to the resort then right to the magic kingdom. rode splash mountain which had noone waiting, no one in front of us. WOW that is a first. went from splash to watch wishes and had a great spot. cried a lil, went to the bakery and had banana bread pudding and a coffee, walked out jumped on the bus and rite back to the p.o.r. greatest day at disney yet!!!

i have pics i will be posting!

i will be back tomorrow for more updates!!

We leave for Disney in 7 days, so I want to hear about the wait times too! Thanks sooo much!

I just posted a thread about this, but you are actually the perfect person to give me the info I need. Is Space Mountain closed for refurbishment as planned? It should have been shut down since the 19th. I'm hoping it's not - it's my son's favorite ride and we leave in only 7 days. Thanks!!

yipppeeeeeeeee..... and we leave day after tomorrow.

Do let us know if you do the "characters in flight" at DTD. Is it fun? If you are visiting DTD, is the "mickeys mart $10 and under still open" .... i have to pick up autograph book and birthday tshirt for my DD(5).

Do let us know about the crowds especially at the character meeting spots.... thats going to be a big time thing for my DD.

Have great fun. We will be following your posts for another 2 days definitely........

We will be there till the 30th of this month.... and we too would keep posting during our time there....maybe with some real time crowd pics too

i have a crowd pic of epcot... almost no one, it was so pleasant! if i make it to DTD ill let you know about the characters in flight.
