Gaston is awesome!! I still haven't been in the new PP queue, I have a list of things to do after SWW is over, we usually don't step foot inside DHS for at least a month ;)
My suggestion on the PP queue, head there first thing in the morning or try last thing at night. We 1st rode w FP+, 1st night of trip. Last night my GD reminded me that we just had to do the standby / walk through. Time for standby was posted at 55 min, at 6:30pm. Slowest line ever ..... 1 1/2 hours later we were finally done. Cute walk through, but not for 1 1/2 hours wait. Sending Pixie Dust your way for a much shorter standby line.......

we went when they first opened it and the new queue area wasn't open cause they wanted everyone on the ride as fast as possible. After that we haven't gone back.
 
@jennab113 were you at SWW only Weekend I or were you there last weekend as well? I think either you or your doppelgänger shared a car with us at SciFi last Sunday!
 

it would be fun to get your sons Ezra with my daughter's Sabine...what day(s) are you coming?

We're at DHS in costume on June 10 and June 12 and possibly the afternoon of June 14th.

As I mentioned before, I can't sew a button, so his costume is from the Disney store. It's not awesomely created by hand like your daughter's.
 
I am most excited about meeting Ray and Peter and getting my Official Pix and Comic books signed by both.(one by me and the other my wife) After that I will really enjoy the shows and just seeing people excited about SSW.

It will be my first SWW, my first time on new Star Tours, first time RnR and TSMM.
First time to Animal Kingdom and pretty much first time at Epcot(When I was a kid of 9 in 1992 my family took us to MK and MGM and we rode the Monorail and Saw Spaceship earth and went there for a very short time to walk around and that is all we did. Did go back when I was a teenager with school trip Beta Club, but only went to MK and MGM.)
 
I sometimes think people think I'm a creepier but I like hanging around meet and greets just to see people's reaction...nothing like seeing little faces light up, or better yet, a teenager get all excited cause they met Luke Skywalker :)

I'm probably in the creeper boat too, lol! :rotfl: Last time we were down, we were in the Pooh ride queue- Tigger and Pooh were meeting nearby and this little 3yo girl just lit up when she saw Tigger... and completely freaked out when she saw Pooh! Mom was trying to get a pic with all of them together and she just ran and hid behind Tigger! Too cute! ;)

that doesn't matter, the Disney one is cool too. She'll be in costume the 13th and 14th.
Make sure to go inside the ABC Sound Studio, they have life size statues of Ezra, Sabine and Chopper makes for a great picture.
 
the spraying tiki and the one in the pool were my favorites, thanks for sharing
Thanks! The one between those two is one of my favorites.

JoJo circus was in a trailer right across the street (in your favorite park! though it was MGM then). She'd just left JoJo and we were walking.

She dropped my hand and starting humming a little song and dancing to her own music.

That right there is the Disney spirit! and that's why it was our first trip but not our last!

that's a lot of firsts. Animal Kingdom is beautiful, I love that park, it's the most under appreciated of them all
 
where can you meet Jawas?? Would our 7:45pm to about 8:15 RH ADR for Friday 6/12 be a good bet on seeing Jawas? Or who else may come that late anyone know, it seems like there is maybe a schedule , kinda,.... TY!!

At that time it has been reported that Jawas are inside the Hangar. Other than that, use the schedule times on the first post. The Jawas come out around Streets of America
