Chapter 7: For The First Time In Forever: A Frozen Sing-A-Long
Okay, so this next section was the worst part of the vacation for me. Like, Im not even sure how much I want to write about it but we all have those moments of Disney vacations that are not so fun.
We got out of American Idol and it was pouring rain, so everyone was standing around in the AI exit. Usually wed just wait out the rain, but we had to get to the Frozen sing-a-long. I had no idea where the Premier Theater was, so my plan was just to follow my mom.
We had the hardest time getting out of the exit. At times we were completely trapped. Somehow, Mom, Kylie, and Emily got out, but I was stuck behind someone in a wheelchair. I tried to call ahead to them to wait for us, but they couldnt hear me.
I saw them duck into an area nearby that had a bunch of tables with umbrellas, and for some reason I thought they might have waited there. So I ran ahead to those tables, and the rest of my family followed. Well, Mom, Ky, and Em werent there, and I had no idea where we were supposed to go.
My dad was (understandably, I might add) pretty upset that I ran out into the rain with no idea where I was going, because we were ankle deep in water and now we had less of a chance of finding shelter. I tried to explain myself but it resulted in us both getting really upset and yelling at each other.
Ugh. It was awful. We were soaking wet and totally lost and I just had no idea what to do. I felt bad for making my uncles and aunt run around in the rain. Thankfully they were all really cool about it.
Finally we got some text directions from our mom. Uncle Dave stayed behind (hes not really a run-through-the-rain kind of guy) and we found our way to the Theater.
I was so miserable at that point. This was the thing I was most excited for, and I really thought I wasnt going to enjoy it.
After I cooled off for a few minutes, my dad and I made up. It was the weathers fault more than anything. On the plus side, we got the big blowout out of the way (not the good summer blowout like Oakens) and there werent any major fights for the rest of the vacation.
Another sad side effect of the rain was that my Olaf got destroyed. Im just honored that he thought I was worth melting for
I pulled myself together and we went inside. We got PERFECT seats, right in the center and didnt have to wait too long before the show started.
Anna came out first looking for her sister. Do you wanna build a snowman? Okay, that never works.
Then, the Arendelle Historians Aria and Erik told us the story of Anna and Elsa, complete with clips and songs from the movie.
We sang Do You Want To Build A Snowman, For The First Time In Forever, Love Is An Open Door, In Summer, and of course, Let It Go.
KRISTOFF made an appearance! I was so excited to see him! I hope they consider bringing him out for the parties, like they do with Flynn Rider.
Actual king of everything, Olaf
The funniest moment was the end of the story, when Erik was explaining how Anna had to choose between getting her kiss from Kristoff or saving Elsa, and he said, So OLAF saves the day, stops Hans, and kisses Anna! Thats her act of true love! I was laughing SO hard.
Finally, Elsa came out, and we all sang Let It Go. Mom and I both got chills because we love this song so much. It really hasnt gotten old for me.
Elsa, of course, made it snow.
The consensus? Everyone loved it, even Aunt Patti and Uncle Rick, who havent seen Frozen! They really want to see it now based on the sing-a-long. I thought it was absolutely precious and it completely turned my mood around.

Can't wait to hear about that one. Do they at least do the humane thing and turn off the soundtrack?
