We (me, DS11, Mom and sister), went to DAH last night and had a blast!
We ate dinner at WCC and then took the boat over to MK. That was the longest wait we had all night! We arrived at 6:58 and got right in. We had a FP for Buzz at 7:10 and made it through in about 10 min. After that we ran over Space Mountain. It was down earlier in the day during our FP time so we were allowed to come back later in the day to ride. There was literally no wait at all! We jumped on People Mover (which seems to have been the best move since it broke down later in the night... sorry for all of you!) and jumped off there at 7:50 right in time for my mother and sister to go watch HEA. My son and I ran over to Barnstormer and rode 5 times in a row (not getting off) while the fireworks went off above. After that, we began our night!
Winnie the Pooh - The cast members had a lot of people coming up without lanyards and they were turning them away. No wait at all, walk on.
Snack - 2 Mickey Bars, 1 ice cream sandwich and a bottle of water
Peter Pan - minimal wait (maybe 3 min)
Haunted mansion - Stretching room was about 1/2 full. Doors opened just as got we walked up. Entered at 8:42.
Frontierland Shooting Gallery
Btmrr - rode twice with no wait! We did have to get off and get back in line but my son got the back both times so he was happy!
Snack - popcorn and 2 bottles of water
PoTC - no wait. Entered at 9:33.
Jingle Cruise (yes, JINGLE Cruise! Our amazing skipper obliged a request from someone on our boat and it was hilarious! All of the cast members we encountered last night were super upbeat and accommodating)
Space mountain - entered at 10:07. Total walk on. Both sides were open so we got to board on the “A” side. As mentioned above, the lights were on where the People Mover broke down but I actually likes seeing the tracks and inner workings of SM.
Buzz - walk on
Snack - Bottle of water and a frozen banana
Tea cups - 3 times. Special request from my sister and son. I sat this one out and enjoyed my banana and the quiet.
SDMT - entered at 10:32 and only had a 5 min wait (MDE said 30 min). We did get stuck on the track twice with the first stop occurring on the climb up the hill. We didn’t want to take any chances of getting stuck for longer so we only rode once.
Little mermaid - never rode this before. Completely deserted... We were the only ones on.
Snack (10:56) - IC sandwich
We watched the kiss goodnight and took some Photopass pics and then headed out. The TTC monorail line was closed so everyone was on the resort side. Lines were so long and after 5-7 min with no monorail in sight, we walked to Bay Lake Tower and called a Lyft to take us back to the Beach Club.
All in all, we found it well worth the cost (we got the AP rate) and would totally do it again. The three hours FLEW by and we did feel a bit rushed to get everything in. We probably would have done more re-rides if we had more time.
Here are some pics of the “crowds”.
