MNSSHP 2017 - Strategy in the making.

[Cluelyss]

This may not be doable, but just in case you end up in the area...

We have the HalloWishes Dessert Party booked. I'd love to see HalloWishes in the reserved plaza viewing area and then stay in the same location for the Hocus Pocus Show. In a perfect world, we would stay there for the parade too...but I'm not sure how this would work logistically due to the plaza area fencing.

If the viewing area of the plaza would work with the parade, will you let me know? We have 4.5yo twins and are trying to let them relax in their stroller that late at night but still see the fireworks, shows, and parade without moving around a ton.

Have a ball!

This will not work for the parade. You will be too far from Main Street and will therefore have a dozen or more rows of people between you and the parade. You might be able to see the tops of some of the floats, but kids sitting in a stroller would see nothing.

Yay! Just got the text that our room at POR is ready! Just about to pick up the kids. They think they're going to the orthodontist. I wonder how long it'll take them to notice we're driving in the wrong direction!

No way! That is a freaking awesome way to surprise them!

 

[Mollymovacca]

Awesome! If you see a Toy Story alien and the claw game, that's us (probably)! See you and thousands of others there

OMG!!!!! We HAVE TO GET A PICTURE TOGETHER!! Our 5yo is Buzz, I'll be Jessie and my husband is Woody!!! How fun!!!!

 

[lovingeire]

My party day is tomorrow! Anything specific anyone wants me to be on the lookout for? Quote me here or PM me. I may not respond until Saturday but I will do my best to answer!

If you happen to go by Sleepy Hollow I'd love a confirmation either way of whether you can use the dining plan on the pumpkin waffles. Thanks, and have fun!

 

[Mollymovacca]

If anyone could report back to me on Lotso tonight I would greatly appreciate it. He is our only priority meet on one of our party nights! We have a 3:20-4:20 fp for Buzz space ranger spin and need to know if we need to line up directly after riding?! Toy Story is our 5yo favorite ever and he will be Buzz, myself as Jesse and husband as Woody!! We HAVE to meet Lotso!! Haha

You do NOT need to line up at 5 for Lotso! We met him after the fireworks with perhaps a 15 minute wait last year. If you want to meet him earlier in the night, shoot for 6:30.

Sept. 26 Party Itinerary

4:15 FP 7DMT FP Time?
4:30-6:00 Jack & Sally
---Tag Team: Take turns with DW using FPs for Peter Pan (4:25-5:25)
6:15-6:35 FP BTMRR (5:30-6:30)
6:40-7:00 PotC
7:15-7:30 Cadaver Dans
7:30-8:00 Haunted Mansion
8:05-8:20 ToT - Pick locations that are between Haunted Mansion and Main Street. See [URL="https://www.disboards.com/threads/mnsshp-2017-my-party-plan-strategy-in-the-making.3604086/#post-57587125"]Post #7[/URL] and look for Tinker Bell for printable version.
8:25 9:15 Parade on Main Street
---Tag Team: Get SotMK card, buy merchandise
10:15-10:30 10:15 Hallowishes - Looking at the Castle move to Right hand side. See map for getting to Lotso.


This part is a bit tricky I think your party is going to be busy, not sold out just busy. I recommend waiting to complete this part hopefully we'll see more posted times but this is what I'm thinking.
10:35-10:55 Lotso Huggin' Bear
11:00-11:15 Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin
11:20-11:45 ToT (Stitch, CoP, Space Mtn)
11:45-12:00 Dwarfs - if line isn't cut off
---Plan B: ToT Pete's Silly Slideshow - Bonus location with 3 stations on each side.
12:00-12:20 Hocus Pocus

What I'm seeing with your plan is a bit of back & forth. Keep playing with your itinerary even come up a different plan, you have time and when you get to Fantasyland or Adventureland be done with it. Only go back IF you have time.
Your itinerary has been posted on the Main Post! Welcome to the party and nice work!

My party day is tomorrow! Anything specific anyone wants me to be on the lookout for? Quote me here or PM me. I may not respond until Saturday but I will do my best to answer!

• Mickey Pumpkin Popcorn bucket locations other then Frontierland
• Confirm what is the latest time we can get the SotMK card at the Main Street Firehouse
• Photo of Price Chart for Chocolate Crisped Rice Treats and Vampire Mickey Brownies - Location: Various kiosks throughout Magic Kingdom Park
• And I'd like to see a photo of the Vampire Mickey Brownies, before you eat it of course!

Just have a great time!

 

[FoxC63]

Thank you so much. I'm just going to use it to get us pics with mickey in our costumes before we eat and party. I appreciate it!!

FYI - Talking Vampire Mickey changes at 7pm

Yes you can. They'll use a snack credit. This has been confirmed and posted on: [URL="https://www.disboards.com/threads/mnsshp-2017-my-party-plan-strategy-in-the-making.3604086/#post-57587119"]Post #5[/URL]

We are sort of semi-planning our evening. We are going to the 10/27 party.
We will go to HS earlier in the day, head back to the room about 1 to change for the party. We plan on getting to MK between 3 and 4, using our AP's to get in and picking up wristbands, then heading for Jack and Sally's line. Where would be the best place to pick up bands for quick access to their line? Other than watching the fireworks, getting in some tot and catching the second parade and last hocus pocus show, our night will be wide open. Thinking we will ride HM and BTMRR between Jack and Sally and fireworks at some point.

we went to the party 8/29 and were handed our wrist bands as soon as we scanned our magic bands, they were out before you cross under the train station. They had a lot of cast members standing there.

Well that's not happy news

We are here at AKL and getting ready for our first party night. The weather looks way better than it did a few days ago too. My DD6 got out of the pool took a bath and has her Moana costume on already. Haha.

Things have been going to smoothly so fingers crossed on the weather.

How did I miss this? I'm pretty sure I read that post before! Information overload! Or maybe just habit from Nutella waffles. I'm pretty excited about this! Thanks @FoxC63

 

[dolewhipdreams]

Okay everyone who asked me questions I've got a list of them and I will do my best to look into those things! We may be dodging some rain and I might not get to them all depending on how that affects our plans.

To everyone going tonight: have fun!! I'll be running around in my The Little Newsie (Ariel as a Newsie) costume so say hi if you see me
