Tuesday: Hollywood Studios
Only one Hollywood Studios day! I think Hollywood Studios might be the main thing that makes me a little sad about not having park hoppers. I wouldn't mind a day and a half here.
Because we do not care enough about Toy Story Mania to go to a lot of effort to do it twice, I'm thinking Dave will probably run over for fast passes first thing (he can also move a lot faster without the rest of us slowing him down) and then we'll all meet up for Rock n' Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror. Gus is 47 inches barefoot right now. I'm hoping that new Crocs, a couple more weeks to grow, and going there first thing in the morning (before gravity kicks in. isn't that the idea?) will get him up to 48 and onto RNRC. As he mentioned, he has a family fastpass all ready for us if he does get to ride. Although it's entirely possible he'll decide at the last minute that he doesn't want to ride it after all. He's a very brave kid, but he has a little bit of a going upside down fear.
And then? Well, I want to do pretty much everything. Except Beauty and the Beast. We saw it last year, and I think we can skip it this year. And Backlot Tour will be closed, I think. That's kind of good since it's a bit of a time suck, but kind of sad because look what happened to Dave on the Backlot Tour last year:
The CM asked for volunteers, so I poked Dave in the ribs and said, put your hand up! And he DID!
Our reservation on Tuesday is at Mama Melrose. I don't remember if it's officially lunch or dinner; it's a Fantasmic package, and it's at 3:40. So I guess we'll try for a really early lunch somewhere (we've only ever eaten at the ABC Commissary, and we might continue that tradition. I kind of want to try Pizza Planet, but since Disney doesn't do regular pizza very well, I don't have high hopes for their gluten free version) and then pick up snacks late. Oh, it just occurred to me...I guess the fact that we're eating dinner at Mama Melrose might be another reason not to have pizza for lunch!
Fantasmic is at 8:30. Somehow, we've never seen it before, so we're all looking forward to it.
