I'm in a hurry so just a quick post for now. In short:
• Once again, the path on the left side of the castle was marked as closed yet a number of people came streaming into Fantasyland by way of it moments after rope drop. Fortunately, we were well ahead of them so we beat them to PP. But it still drives me nuts that they’re not consistent with it. Either it’s always open or it’s always closed... and the CMs are duly informed.
• Scoring on Buzz was better yesterday (i.e., most of my pics came through with their associated scores), although I think that was simply due to chance rather than any actual fix being made. Only my first score of the day didn’t come through. That was annoying since it was ≈ 2,050,000. I also exceeded 2,096,000 three times, which in each case meant that my score was reset.
• At 3:10, the California National Guard, 144th Fighter Wing did a brief flyover of DCA to mark the upcoming released of Captain Marvel.
• I ran into several Japanese tourists and was able to help with directions, etc. Some of you may recall that I took two years of Japanese in college.
• Oddly, as I made my way towards the bathroom to the left of Plaza Inn, there was a family embroiled in a very loud, very nasty argument. I’ve never seen anything like it at DL before but as I got there (they were at the PI gate near the bathrooms), it was like an episode of Cops or Cheaters. Really angry shouts and the tone was simply ugly. Three or four security CMs were on the scene. I've never seen anything like it at DL before and hope to never see it again.
• Yesterday was Adventureland Day (the first I heard about it was at the park yesterday). Dozens of people were dressed as Indiana Jones to celebrate the day. I’m not sure, but that may have been the first one ever.
