It's almost 5am and I am awake earlier than planned. Debating if I should wake sleeping DD now or wait until 5:30am. Reports are that there were 400 ppl in line by 4am.
We got in line at 6am. Took us 45 mins to get out of the hotel room! This morning in particular, I am loving that we are staying so close at the Fairfield Inn! A fair number of ppl in line but the esplanade is not full.
A lot of shrieking happened at 6:20am and the crowds surged forward. But nothing has happened. Just heard a rumor that they will open the gates at 6:30am.
Since I haven't seen anyone mention a DIS meet, I'll set up one.
I'll be at the Fantasia Gardens (old motor boat dock) behind Edeweiss Snacks at noon.
I'll have DIS Unplugged buttons for the first 60 people.
Hope to see you there.
Lomg lines for the few seats in front of the Castle and some lines already for the cupcake stations. Not looking for merchandise so no idea of the crowds there.
They had camping in the parking shuttle bus area for the 24 hr. I even saw people in wheelchairs?!?! camping the night before. How stupid/bored are people getting these days that they feel the need to do these types of things?
