Hmmm with the above current list of EE rides & mine cart off

Wondering if better to start out to do MoM 1st

VS starting in Nintendo land



Our day is Saturday end of month Believe weekend was slow last week Not sure if what is a travel day for many, locals & seasonal APH (perhaps getting in a last weekend before blackout period at older parks) will help our cause

Was surprised that, other than Helios selling out recently, the onsite values have dropped substantially Especially, the Saturday night???

Been noticing a new trend this past week that Mine-Cart Madness has been opening at 10AM (according to the app at least) instead of 9AM with the rest of of Super Nintendo World.

Sort of a weird situation now for our trip where we'll have access to Early Park Admission and we'll also have Express Pass. The plan originally was to do Mine-Cart Madness during early entry, but since that hasn't been opening during early entry I'm not even sure what to do first other than either ride Stardust a couple times (as I'm a HUGE coaster junky) or just sort of "waste" that first hour and wait for either Ministry of Magic OR Mine-Cart Madness to open. I don't know WWYD?

Battle at the Ministry opened before its stated 10am opening on Wednesday 6/11 when I was there. I was heading to Stardust, but it was delayed so went to Battle at the Ministry. Line was moving when I got there during EE. I was on at roughly 9:50am, it could have been sooner if I had gone directly there to get in line.

I wouldn't start in Nintendo imo.

Really? Most have said it's the way Maybe, just during previews & I didn't catch that

I forgot to report that I was talked into riding Stardust. Big mistake! My hearing was gone for a few minutes after the ride. Overall, I think it's less intense than Velocicoaster, which I also have no plan on riding ever again.

If you are willing to do SR the line isn’t very long for Mario Kart. Yoshi took way too long, but was cute. I never rode DK because I wasn’t going to wait 90 minutes in the sun and SRwas not open the multiple times that I checked. Lightning shut it down all evening…I only went one day, but that was my experience.

Would decide the same, that’s a long haul
