This is strange and hopefully we are worrying over nothing but is anyone here actual, real life friends with @ConnieB ? I sent her a pm but she hasn't answered. We haven't seen the twins at all and she hasn't posted here since Celebration. Just hope it's nothing bad. Kinda worried at this point

Thank you, I am sure we will have a great time. Will you be at your usual fireworks location tonight? I owe you a drink.

not really staying for fireworks. Most of the time I'll spend by the Luke and Leia line trying to get some sort of schedule for the droids. I'll pm you when I'm there. No drinks needed or allowed (since I'm driving back early) but would love to meet you

any bus reports from AS resorts and arrival time at DHS this morning?

So I just used the FP+ system this morning for the first time and trying to work out how it works. What is the best method to coordinate from someone. Be logged into the website and wait for them to cancel and then search for the fastpass+ right after they reply they have cancelled? Can you refresh the selection screen where the attractions are or do you need to be before that screen? Just want to make sure I know what I am doing before I try and start to get a Fastpass+ from someone.

I would say pretty much, but remember you might not be the only one looking so you would almost have to have the FP+ up and when they drop refresh the screen and grab it. I have tried this and I'm 1 for 4, but I say the 3 misses were probably due to others looking at the same thing and just grabing it faster.

I would have been joining you today, but switched everything over to Sunday due to my 430 pm Jedi Mickey's dinner reservation being for that day and not wanting to split it up, plus since then I was able to add by some good luck an 825 am Galactic Breakfast reservation as well. The nice thing is I actually got a refund back on my FTF package I had purchased for today so that was nice to see, plus it freed it up for someone else.

If the AT AT shirts are here, they are not out in Darth's Mall yet. There are steins available.

sheesh!!!!! come on Her Universe, that was the only thing I wanted from SWW this year. Thanks for checking

 

[Arich01]

All this talk about t-shirts.... Yesterday, I stopped in Kohls and in the boys clearance section they had 6 different SW designs! I got 3 shirts at $1.80 each and 1 for $3.40!!!! $1.80 y'all!!!!!!

 

[animalkingdom15]

Well it's a good thing I changed everything over to Sunday for SWW because I'm suffering from a massive combo of sinus head ache and allergy issue this morning. Being on the ball when packing and knowing what works, I packed my meds for this so I should be good in time for a hotdog and fries at Casey's at MK and the following FP: Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade
2:45 PM - 3:05 PM, Wishes nighttime spectacular 9:35 PM - 9:55 PM and Main Street Electrical Parade 10:30 PM - 10:50 PM. In all the times I have been, I have never seen the Festival of Fantasy Parade or Main Street Electrical Parade. T

I was wondering too. Sent her a pm right after sw celebration in Anaheim. Knew she'd been looking for someone to get her the DL Starbucks mugs and my friend was there so I was offering to get her some. Never got a response.

Hopefully just busy with life.

Good news for those looking the the steins!! If they have them everywhere then they have a full stock and will hopefully last for the next 3 weekends or else it would be more exclusive

Where was characterpalooza? I've heard it moved from the back area behind Tower of Terror to the Streets of NY?

During the sww seems almost guaranteed to be at tot gates.

On the weekdays it's more random. We had scouts at the tot gates, streets of America and the Indy stunt area at 545. If you walk fast you can make it to wherever it is. Then again, we are a party of 4 adults and we love rare characters, otherwise it might not be worth trying to find.
