Disneyland.
Well, rope drop was packed. The park was too, and we had Rise, BTMRR, Tiana's, Space all down for the first hour or so. So naturally the wait time were VERY inflated for the morning. Combine that will the constant mist and things were a little slow and uncomfortable. All that being said, we worked the park as always.

The weather cleared later that afternoon and it seems like they were adding capacity to rides. My guess is even Disney gets it wrong with the weather. I think they were scaled back and didn't call in enough CMs for the capacity needed that day. People were defiantly getting a bit annoyed at the ride closures and slow movements that morning.

After 12 it actually got better , which is very unusual. Lines went DOWN and services seems to be running much better.

Walked down Main Street and ran into Dave from Fresh Baked, and had a nice afternoons lunch at Trader Sam's.

Nighttime was about as perfect as they come, cool weather , stacked LL and plenty of Churros to keep moving.

I was shocked at the constant lack of knowledge by the guests in the park ?!?!
A lot of people seems to have no idea that the rides were down till they got to the line? Also the food line were massive, and no one seemed to be using mobile order? We are people watchers ? And they had cell phone out and in thier faces while simultaneously waiting on the walk up lines? All we could surmise is they were using cash?

According to a management CM I spoke to, people who aren't familiar with the parks don't tend to do mobile order. According to the CM, 1. They are often confused how to use the app and 2. They are hesitant to enter or store their credit card info in the app.

Also , as my wife said, many won't have a credit card at all.
