March Check-In **Official** Thread (Start with Post #17)

[TikiTroll]

I will be there (with GeriLyne) starting March as well. Staying at GCH again, obviously . . .

As long as we can ride RotR and get drinks at Trader Sam's, I'm good.

Officially joining the March list! We will be there 3/1 and 3/2 staying at the Del Sol (for the first time, taking a chance!). This was a slightly unexpected add on to a conference in San Diego. I'm super excited because it was my bosses idea and she hasn't been since she was a kid.

 

[Daisybelle]

What is:

1) The first thing you will do when you get to Disneyland? Meander down Main Street and head to Pirates. Always our first ride.
2) The food, snack, treat, or beverage you're most looking forward to? Mikey Beignets!
3) The ride or attraction you are most looking forward to? Aside from ROtR, Splash Mountain

I never went on Tower of Terror. Went on Guardians once. Almost barfed on the ride. It was terrifying. Couldn't stop shaking for about 10 min afterwards. The only way I didn't throw up was by screaming with everything I had. It felt like the drops never ended. I'd just start to get over one and another one would start. Some were long, some were short, but I couldn't tell how long each one would last, so I was petrified each time. My kids went on it, too. They were in tears.

NEVER AGAIN!

I did barf on the ride last year! I was able to uhh.. contain it until after the ride but it messed up my stomach for a while afterwards. It was horrifying. I was fine with TOT!

Hi - we are headed to Disneyland 3/26-3/29- WDW vets as a family (2 adults- 3 kids- 14-12 and 10) but I grew up going to Disneyland. We are staying at GHC for two nights! Where do you look to find events that are happening later in March?

Got it - thanks that makes since - my booking window opens soon so I can check my dates. Used to WDW and planning much further out!

 

[TikiTroll]

Well.... everyone else is playing!


What is:

1) The first thing you will do when you get to Disneyland? A leisurely stroll down Main Street (I can hear Surrey with the Fringe on Top already), and then lunch at Cafe Orleans, as is our tradition.
2) The food, snack, treat, or beverage you're most looking forward to? Hmm. Either the Ronto Wrap or the Fluffer Nutter Churro if they still have them.
3) The ride or attraction you are most looking forward to? RotR, most definitely!
4) The ride or attraction that isn't your favorite, but you'll go anyway because it's your traveling companion's favorite? We don’t have anything like that, since we both dislike the same rides for the most part. Me Toad’s Wild Ride is her special ride, so it’s probably the best fit for this category even though I like it too.
5) The character you would be most excited to get a picture with? Oof. I wish we could find Flynn Rider, but I’ll put Boba Fett out there, if we can get him to notice us.

Food: Breakfast at Jolly Holiday, Snack: Bengal BBQ, Treat: Mickey Ice Cream Bar, Beverage: Something nice from Oga's.

ROTR!!!

Snow White or Pinnochio or Mr. Toad

[IslaLila]

We’re going in March! The 16-18 staying at Hojo.

1) The first thing you will do when you get to Disneyland? Possibly checking WiFi and getting a boarding group for ROTR if they’re still doing boarding groups in March. Otherwise I always have to slow myself down going down Main Street and remember to enjoy a slow stroll rather than speed walk to rides!
2) The food, snack, treat, or beverage you're most looking forward to? Breakfast ronto wrap and I love Mickey pretzels!
3) The ride or attraction you are most looking forward to? Rotr! HM is our favorite though and we’re hoping it’ll be open.
4) The ride or attraction that isn't your favorite, but you'll go anyway because it's your traveling companion's favorite? I like everything, but my husband doesn’t like Splash, Jungle Cruise, teacups, and IASW. I’m hoping he’ll go on a couple of those with me!
5) The character you would be most excited to get a picture with? We don’t do character meets, but I love seeing characters walk through the park! I’d love to see Rapunzel, Flynn, and Gaston!

Ok. Everthing squared away. Now to bite the bullet and buy the tickets. Mr and Mrs MickeyT - March 16 - March 20. Desert Inn!

One question (for now). Why would TP be showing 10's and 9's for this week? Am I missing something?

... One question (for now). Why would TP be showing 10's and 9's for this week? Am I missing something?

Beware of depending on crowd calendars for DLR. They aren't a great resource here; they work better at WDW. See this thread: Most accurate crowd calendars?. If TP is using last year's data for their algorithm, last year's Spring Break crowds were surpringly high as people flocked to the parks early in the year to avoid the opening of SWGE at the end of May. There might also have been a combination of people using the SoCal Promo tickets and APs on Spring Breaks.

 

[tlovesdis]

My BFF and I upgraded our tickets last week to Sig AP's so we have 4 trips planned in 2020! March 20-22 we will be at the Motel 6 Maingate.
