Awesome update. How did you end up withy so many fast passes and not using them right away? The photopass pics are great. And I love the Streetmosphere people -- they are always a hoot.
Just hadn't used them yet. Even though they have a time window on them for when you're supposed to return, official Disney policy (according to another website that I trust) is to accept them any time that day after the fastpass return time. In other words, they won't turn you away if you try to use your fastpass after your window has closed. So, you can collect them all day and use them at night if you want to. I've never had a problem returning after the window times.
Coming out of Lurkdom to say hey and great job...all your tr's are great. keep em coming, I need something to do while at work.

jillybeene71! Hey! And thanks! Glad my TRs are being put to good use. I expect to see a rise in the GDP any day now!
I would love it !!The smell would be nothing I grew up in a town that had a sugarbeet factory that on a warm day and the wind in the wrong direction was Pewey !!!

Then there was a Brewery in town and let me tell you HOPS do not smell good !!!

ANNNNNDD just outside the town was a Bacon Factory that STUNK !!!!We also had a mushroom farm close by but I think it's smell was lost with the others

Sounds like you could tell which way the wind was blowing, and therefore the weather, by what smell you had on any given day.
I will tuck that gem away for a really hot day!
I remember that too!!!!
Wish I'd have thought of it later in the day that I'm reporting right now.
That is so TERRIBLE about the Fastpass, not really a fastpass though, but that is so confusing, it shouldn't say fastpass at the top if it isn't really a fastpass.

So sad James didn't get to meet that guy (sorry I don't know the star wars people

I mean I've seen the movies, but that's it).
It would have been nice if the CMs had mentioned it when I got them.

At least then I'd have known.
Your daughter wearing green is so animated in her facial expressions. LOVE it.

Thanks!
The streetmosphere people look like so much fun.

Free wine (whine)
They were a hoot!
3 fastpasses in your pocket,


Can't wait to see what's next
Thanks.
p.s. thanks for allowing me to copy a few of your sci-fi atmosphere photos for Jacks picture schedule
You are very welcome.
Great update Glenn. I love the Streetmosphere people. It is always a great show and I love the reactions of people around them!
Thank you. We really had a lot of fun with the Streetmosphere people that day.
Can't wait to see how many FP you can rack up in a day.
I think we gave other people a chance to get a few after that.
I am guessing you did not go back during the next time slot to see if you could get an autograph? If there was a pen for the real Fastpass, a second pen for the stand by not a fastpass fastpass, was there a third pen if you had no fastpass???
No, we didn't attempt anymore autographs. That was twice that we'd stopped for that guy...he doesn't get any more chances to give me his autograph.
Nope, no pen for no fastpass! Unless you count the whole rest of the park?
Haha...I love Streetmosphere. And I loved the free "whine" samples.
It was fun when they moved on from the "canned" ones they had to teasing James about his uncombed hair.
We almost moved back in 1999 to the mushroom capital (for the life of me I can't remember the city's name.) But it fell through, so we didn't. It sure did smell...
Kennett Square calls itself the capital, but we're in a nearby town.
Poor James. My heart goes out to him. I hate it when my child is disappointed and I can't do anything about it. But he did recover pretty quickly.
I know. I wasn't sure if maybe there were a lot of people right at 1pm, and after they cleared out we'd get a chance...but they seemed to keep coming.
Good job with the fps!
Work the system!
I love all the streetmosphere interaction. I could sit and watch them all day, but DH has no patience for it. You sure got lots of compliments! Maybe if they did that to him he would have more patience. I think he has stage fright and thinks they might call him out. The girls and I would love the attention.
They really make it fun, and they're one of those things that make each visit different. If you just go from ride to ride, after a while you have "done everything".
I guess I wasn't worried about being called out because when we happened upon them no one else was around, so we were just talking. It wasn't like being a "volunteer" called up on stage.
Great pictures with the big hat.
Thank you!
7- 7 pictures of that lovely bride of yours! (I hope)
Yep! A new winner for this round!
Poor James, that stinks he couldn't see one of the ones he was most looking forward to!
Yeah, well maybe it was some kind of life-lesson?
Yes!! Yes, I think my wife WOULD like more Vanilla Coke. I'm sure you let her accept it from Missy.

You sound like me.
You don't think it was too obvious who really wanted that Vanilla Coke, do you?
Sounds like waiting to see a Star Wars character is a license to shop to me. Go, girls, go.
What isn't?
Great title- fits perfectly!!
Thank you. Wish I'd have given it a little more thought before I finished the prior chapter, but it's a little hard to think that far ahead.
I'm sorry James didn't get to meet James Taylor. That holding pen looked worse than than the dionaga's garbage masher.
I had a bad feeling about it. "R2! Shut down all the people pens on the detention level! Shut down all the people pens on the detention level!"
At least it wasn't Ewan McGregor. Now that would have been a BIG disapointment. I guess you can count your blessings that you got to see Chewie with little wait then!
I think Ewan's star's going to have to fall a little bit before we see him signing autographs at SWW.
I definitely was counting my blessings re. the Chewie autograph when I realized how the system worked and what type of fastpass I had.
My you all seem a bit flushed in your pictures! That asphalt and the humidity are a potent combination. We have very few pictures of the family posing during the day because it would have required us to stand in the sun trying to look happy!
Oh man, it was hot and we were just getting to the hottest part of the day. We have some squinting fastpass pictures coming up later in the TR.
I hadn't seen those streetmosphere characters before.
I hadn't seen those particular streetmosphere people before either. They were a lot of fun.
They looked like a lot of fun but you can't pay me to sit out there in the sun like that. Wait. I paid Disney to do that... :wink:
