The *OFFICIAL JUNE 2011 THREAD* "Some Like it Hot" & Some Like it Even Hotter! Part 2

[DCLbrideSept2009]

I am glad that you made it there safely. I hope that space mountain is up and running by next week. This will be my DS first year being able go ride it and he is really looking forward to it. Have fun at dinner and enjoy your tour tomorrow!

Space Mountain was also down at one point during our recent trip. Wednesday 6/8. Can't remember what time it was, but I believe it was early evening when we were using our fastpasses? We went and it was down. Later it was finally reopened, we got into the line and then the CM shut the line behind us but didn't know why. Then I heard "If you are in a rocket, please remain seated." Yeah, it was down again. So we got out of the line and didn't go back that day. We did go back another day, though, and rode it. Friday 6/10, I believe.

I've been checking my app for wait times and it said that Everest was down twice today. It also has had fairly good times for TSM--mostly under 80 minutes. A few times on the weekend it got up to the two hour mark. I'm anxious to see how true some of the numbers are that I've been seeing.

I'm been looking at wait times too. I was really surprised that TSM was just a 80 minute wait. I thought it would be way longer.

It does bother me that some of the parks we chose on certain days are not listed as parks to avoid. I hope this doesn't mess up our touring plans. I guess we will see soon enough.

I don't subscribe to any of those services but the wait times I saw at MK over the weekend were way shorter than I thought they'd be.

I don't subscribe to any of them either, but I have the free app for undercover tourist and it gives you the wait times on it and tells you which parks to avoid. I don't really go too much by any of this except watching the wait times.

Cute! My son had the hardest time going to sleep tonight and was practically bouncing off of the walls with excitement. I know he's excited, but...wow! Behavior was out of control. It was like he had eaten a whole box of Mickey ice cream bars!

Awwww. I got a little misty eyed last year when we were leaving. At dinner the day before. At breakfast that morning. At lunch just before getting on DME.

that you can return soon to turn that frown upside down.

No. Not the Arundel Mills one. That is about 40 minutes from us. The one that is closing is the one in Montgomery Mall in moco.

First off, have fun on your trip!

Secondly, tonight I went to my mall to go to the Disney store (Annapolis Mall) and tonight was their final night!!!!!! How poetic was it that I was the very last customer in the store, and the very last customer out. They literally closed the doors forever behind me. The lady who checked me out said I was officially the final customer of their store. I literally almost cried!

I hear the one in Columbia is staying open for now (at least that is what the store employees told me)

Oh. Another one bites the dust! That is sad! Yeah, they old me at ours too that Columbia and Tyson's corner would be staying open for now.

On another note..... We finally leave TODAY!


Our family is beyond excited this morning. We have to finish last minute packing, pack the car, and go. We are stopping in myrtle beach this afternoon to see family and then we will be on our way again! Yay!

15 years ago, we had them all over DFW. They all closed probably 5 years ago. Now, we have one at the really nice mall. It's so small!!!! And not like the ones from before in terms of merchandise. There's also an outlet at the big outlet mall here but I hate that mall so I've only been in once.
