Hi everyone! Real quick question. We're staying at the Beach Club and would like to get into Star Wars in good time for Chewy. Not too bothered bout the celebs, but keen to meet Vadar.

What time should we be leaving the hotel tomorrow?

Thanks in advance

Bump. Anyone? Tia!

We were at YC and left about 6:40 to be at the tapstiles around 7 without rushing. We were the third or fourth group in our line, which put us in good position at rope drop. The entrance lines seemed to build quickly after 7.

All I got to say about the FTF desert party and the Symphony in the Stars is WOW. I had a table on the right side of the roped off area and saw everything great. It's honestly the most fun I have had in a long time and beats any fireworks display I have ever seen. I can't wait to go back Sunday for the last day of SWW. I was going to go back tomorrow, but I'm going to use that day to hang out on the boardwalk and try some of the restaurants here.

In line for Ray Park - got here @ 12:30 and am about 55-60 people deep. Gonna be close. Peters line is similar in length

We had a wonhderful first day at SWW and I wanted to thank everybody for all the help! We did the Chewie run and saw him for the first set, had bfast at Sci fi, we thought it was Awesome! Left the park around 12 for a nap and a shower, returned in the evening for Frank Oz, Ray Parks, the Rebel Hanger, and fireworks. We really enjoyed Ray Parks show, he is amazing! The food at the RH was wonderful! I liked the salad and the dark side slider the best. We met nice people everywere, had some Alderons from the bar overby the theatre....super nice bartender over there! And we finished it up with the best seats for the fireworks over on the wall by 50s Prime.

If anyone recorded VttM yesterday (particularly the kids' portion) and posts it to YouTube, I'd appreciate it if you shared the link. I didn't have enough memory to record.

Waiting in Ashleys line. Got here 530. We will see xhewie and ray to boat taylor past bag chreck.

A friend of mine was in that line too and she was pretty upset that the cast members allowed that to happen since the driods are only out for such a short amount of time. They were so close to the front of the line, too, (were in line well before 30 minutes ahead of droid set) but then stopped moving once they got close. BI feel like they keep the lines running so smoothly for so many meets but this one rare meet kind of bombed today. 20 minutes for one group is pretty ridiculous.

I was there too. Missed them by maybe 5 groups. I Blame Luke. He is too chatty. Trying again today!

There are still Eckstein fps.

We just got here and got fp for Taylor Gray. It looks like they still had about 10 left

So I ended up being here at 930pm and got 110-125pm for Peter. I had to wake at 1115 to wake up a friend and then I slept soundly until my alarm went off at 540. I'm glad I got some sleep!

Doing the Chewie run. I'm wearing my Chewie We're Home shirt.

Chewie just came out with an ewok! Should make it for the first set.

 

[yulilin3]

They were giving out wristbands for Frank oz.They said to return around 4:45 to get a guaranteed seat. The cast members flat out said that if you wanted a close seat that you would have to spend the whole day in line.

After all that just missed SB for Ray Park but was able to get SB for Peter Mayhew
