Hollywood!!!
Friday, 11/16
Hi guys! OMG we made it! We're up to the last day of my trip! At this time last year, I was counting down the days until I would GO on this trip, and now I'm just getting around to finishing the TR! Crazy!
I can't believe I'm going back in less than a month! It's insane! Sadly, I won't be able to do a PTR for this trip, I wanted to but since this TR still has a few updates left and I only have 25 days until I leave, I just don't see the point! I will do a few PTR updates here though, if you're interested! I'm not sure if I should do a TR for this upcoming trip either...I feel like all of my TR's are Christmas TR's and that you guys are probably bored with them!
Anyway, after our late night out partying, it wasn't exactly easy to get up for rope drop but somehow, I made myself do it, and I actually got Brandon up and out of bed too! I had no interest in doing anything to my hair or putting on make up so I just put my hair up and tossed on some Minnie ears and I was ready to go. If only I could do that in real life. Oh, my hair looks awful today? Let me just put on my Minnie ears to hide it.
We managed to make it to Hollywood Studios by 8:50 and by the time we walked over, they were already letting people in. So we walked quickly over to Toy Story Mania and grabbed some FP's for later...11:40 was our return time, so it wasn't too bad!
Before we did anything, Brandon wanted to get breakfast so we went to Starring Roles. We both were boring and got bagels. Of course I considered getting a cupcake for breakfast, of course! But I didn't for some reason. I regret it.
Not a proud moment for me.
While we were sitting there, I kind of went into some panic about our lunch plans. Originally we had an ADR at 50's Prime Time, but I was so afraid to go there, now that the day was finally here! I have such anxiety about that place, you don't understand! I want to go, I want to like it, but I'm so nervous about people yelling at me! I feel like I'd need a few shots to be able to play along and not let it bother me!
So I was looking on my phone for replacement ADR's and I found Sci Fi. I booked that instead. But then Brandon said he didn't want to go to Sci Fi. So I asked where he wanted to go and he said somewhere different. So I checked to see what was available and I was telling him everything...no, no, no...YES! Finally I said something that he agreed too! I booked it before he could change his mind!
Once we were finished with Starring Roles, we were wandering around and saw some of the characters out, so we stopped to get pictures with Donald and Daisy. These pictures are terrible and we look like the biggest dorks on earth, but I'll put one up for your amusement...
Haha...oh man, it's just so bad. But they were fun to meet, so I guess I'm glad to have the picture to remember!
We didn't really have anything planned so we went to see the Muppets! Yay!!!
Aww, Beeker, he's my favorite! Well, him and Bean Bunny!
The Muppets were awesome as usual! Apparently, when we were finished, we decided to just wander around until it was time to use our FP's. WHY we didn't go to the Tower of Terror is confusing me, I guess we didn't want to walk that far? Makes no sense, but we just walked around and I found...
Duckie Momo! If you don't watch Phineas and Ferb, this means nothing to you, haha! I just thought it was so cute that they had Duckie Momo near the Phineas and Ferb meet and greet area! (I can't really describe who Duckie Momo is if you don't watch P&F...Candace is P&F's sister, and she's obsessed with him!)
Somehow, we ended up near Star Tours next, where I went to the bathroom while Brandon waited for me. He started freaking out while I was in there, because he was watching the Jedi Training Academy, but he didn't know what it was, so he just thought he stumbled upon Darth Vader randomly coming out! So he was all excited when I came out and was telling me about it and I was like "yeah, they do that all day".
However, I've never actually watched it, so we stood there for a little while. It was pretty cool, I love Star Wars, and Darth Vader is my favorite! I really have to go to Star Wars weekends someday!
When we were finished watching Darth Vader, we went over to...
Rockin Roller Coaster. So we did go over there after all! However, we didn't ride the Tower of Terror, just RnRC! I'm not sure why, I guess the line was really long?
Wahhh, my Tower, off in the distance!
Well, that's all, we went on RnRC and then it was back to
Pixar Place! SO WEIRD! I have no explanation of this in my notes...usually if I can't ride the Tower of Terror, I'm heartbroken...and it being my last day in Disney and everything...I'm just not getting it!
Finally it was time for Toy Story Mania!
When we got back to Pixar Place, we had about 5 minutes before we could use our FP's so we just stood to the side to wait. While we were standing there, a green army guy came out! I was so excited, I've seen pictures of them but this was my first time seeing one in person! Brandon was excited too, and no one was going over to this guy, so I made Brandon go up to him and take a picture with him! When we got over to him, Brandon said something dorky like "permission to take a picture with you sir?"
Ugh we are such losers!
Finally it was time to use our FP!!!
My notes from this last day are awful, that's why this update is all over the place, BUT I did make sure to make a note that I beat Brandon at Toy Story Mania this time!
He made excuses because of his shoulder surgery, blah blah blah...whatever, I beat you! I wish I could get over 200,000 someday though!
Once we finished with TSM, it was time to hop over to another park for our lunch ADR! I can't believe we spent so little time at DHS that morning, and that I didn't ride ToT!
I wish I wrote down why, but I'm guessing the line was just too long and I was too upset to even bother making a note of it! I get emotional when it comes to that Tower and me not getting to ride it!
Up next...lunch at a new place for us!
The castle looks its best all decked out in lights and changing colors. 
wonder why you didn't write about not riding ToT.....weird.
