**Official Frozen Sing-Along, Oaken's, Holiday Premium Package Tips, updated 1/5/15

[jtowntoflorida]

here now. I do think the premium package seems worth it so far. we were meeting Mike & Sulley at 10:00 so didn't check in until 10:15 or so (no line to check in then). all the singalongs were still available except the first two. We were able to find a shady area in the kids area to wait in. They were enforcing sitting today, which was nice. they wouldn't let anyone stand until A&E came by.

Our H&V did help with JTA signups. we were directed to the hat, but because we were done eating before the park opened, we were able to be close to the rope and at the front of the pack. All shows had availability when we signed up. if You're not at the front of the pack, you have no shot...the line was out of the building and wrapping out toward Star Tours when we exited. It took about 10 minutes to sign up.

We're having a blast so far, while it's hot, it's not as humid as I thought it would be.

Oh, and i'm almost positive I saw Yuilin as we were leaving the prmium area after the welcome show.

Not sure but we got tickets twice (ended up not using the first ones) and both times they had plenty of tickets to all shows... I picked up tickets to the 12:30 show around 10:30 or so and this was just two days ago

Ok, thanks!

I updated the first page. There were some time changes between last week and this week. Current times from the times guide are listed in red.

So glad you are enjoying the package.

Thanks for the heads up on JTA. That is a question I've been asked a few times.

I think Yulilin3 babysits weekday mornings. But maybe she was at DHS instead today.

I was at the parade and 12:30 sing-along with Missyrose and Franklin.

A new shipment of Svens has arrived and Oaken's is well-stocked for now!

That would explain why we saw more than my son's Sven today. So glad he's back in stock!

Sorry, wasn't me...although I would give anything to be there today rather than in my house. Have fun. I will be there Saturday

Just cancelled dessert party for 4 for Sunday Sept 28th for any interested.

I dont know if anyone knows but there is a bunch of frozen items for sale at zulilly. I got a couple of shirts for my daughter. http://www.zulily.com/invite/ycintradeavila850 If you can click thru my link i would appreciate it.. Thanks

Also for adult women Hot Topic has some cute frozen dresses, a super cute long sleeve style lightweight sweatshirt top in a darker blue, a purple Anna & Elisa Tee and other cute frozen items : ) I bought all 3 for our November trip and I don't ever shop at Hot Topic lol but took my twin grandsons and couldn't leave without buying them. The dress is very cute but runs a tad small I got a large and I'm a size 8-10, both the tops were very true to size. Any woo since it was clothes talk I jumped in for the women since it's hard to find frozen themed items for adults that are non basic tees : )

Glad to read a wonderful review and glad CM had peeps sit down today. So happy you have less humidity today ... August is hot but less humidity helps so much. Can't wait to read how you like the dessert party and fireworks tonight! Enjoy : )

Once again, thanks for that! Been calling for the last 2 weeks for it. The CM that I talked to on the phone asked me how I knew someone canceled, and I told her from the Disboards, of course. She said she really didn't expect any to be available because none have been available on that date every time she has checked for someone.



FYI - I only needed 2, so there may be 2 left.

Forgive me if this has already been asked, but I cannot seem to figure out the time for the fireworks for the rest of September. I've seen three different times in three different places. When will the fireworks happen on September 14? I may need to make an adjustment to my ADR that night in order to make it HS on time. TIA!

At the Trading post, yes. But I don't think for skating at the Funland.

That's great that it worked out!

TGIF!! Originally this was suppose to be the last weekend of FSF. Tuesday starts the extension and FP+ for the sing-along.

I still haven't tried the Frozen themed ice cream sandwich or the Arendelle punch. Have any of you? What did you think?

Sven is back in stock in time for the holiday weekend.

Oaken's Funland closes at 7:30pm. The Trading Post is opened til 8pm.

Sending out a reminder that tomorrow is the last day for American Idol Experience.

I'll be at HS tomorrow. Can't wait!
