Friday 10/1/21:
Scott went to the gym about 5, and I went just before 6. We’ve been the only ones in the gym when we go.
After our normal routine of jacuzzi, shower, laundry and breakfast we headed to Hollywood Studios and arrived just as they were opening.
By the time we walked to Rise of the Resistance there was already a 90 minute wait so we skipped it for now.
Instead we walked right onto Smugglers Run, we were pilots. This was a lot of fun and my first time on this attraction. I’m not a Star Wars person so a lot of the intricacies are lost on me but I still enjoyed it. Scott is a Star Wars fan so he appreciated all the details even more.
We took some pictures around the Star Wars section. We are enjoying the pictures the photopass photographers take especially those with interesting effects/magic shots.
We headed towards the Toy Story section and walked right onto the Alien Saucers. This is a cute little ride; Scott was more interested in watching the mechanics of the cars and how they changed tracks, but he enjoyed it too.
We waited for Slinky Dog Dash which was listed as a 45 minute wait, but it was really more like 30.
We skipped Toy Story Mania with a 60 minute wait listed.
We were excited to get in line to ride Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Train. It’s extra fun when we have new attractions to try. The wait was listed as 30 minutes. When we were inside the queue the attraction went down. Us, and many of the others waiting, sat on the floor (we were inside already) to wait and most played on their phones (including us). About 10 minutes later, everyone clapped when we started moving and the ride was up and running. This was adorable. We both liked it and were glad we waited.
Tower of Terror was a walk on. We both enjoyed this and the sequence of drops was fun. We thought we were done and we shot back up to drop again.
I found the Mickey Pumpkin Spice cookie near Tower of Terror. We had a ziploc baggie with us just for this purpose so wrapped the cookie up for later. These cookies are big. We shared an ear of it before wrapping it up. It’s very good, with nice fall flavors.
Scott went on Rock N Roller Coaster and I waited for him. He enjoyed his ride and was back quickly.
We went to the Frozen Singalong at 12:30 which is always a lot of fun.
We walked right onto Star Tours but ended up having to change vehicles when a guy in our vehicle puked before the ride even started. Guess it was good it happened then, or we would have been trapped. Once in our new ride vehicle we enjoyed our ride.
