Update: I went to the park today. I was first in and would have been first on PP but this "gentleman" with a large-lens camera sprinted to the front of the line. I'd met a really nice mom and her two wonderful kids at the rope. They told me they were bound for PP and I offered to help them (I often do and regularly surrender my first-place spot to kids/families). I would have let them have my first-place spot but they had to settle for second (for the aforementioned reasons ). A short time later, I overheard the "gentleman" who sprinted brag about his achievement to the CM that was loading riders onto Mr. Toad. When I boarded, I asked her if that's what he told her about. She confirmed that he had. I then explained that he sprinted to beat everyone there. I later spoke to a CM friend who's a security officer and we had a good laugh over it. I wish no one would run but it's a rarity. It happens only about once every two months. As many of you know from firsthand experience, when one person runs, it often causes other guests to run. Sometimes they fall. CMs tell me they see it about once a week.
Anyway, the rest of the day was great. Did OK on Buzz and met two nice girls from Australia. One is a CM at Disney World. We talked for about 20 minutes, which was fun.
Anyway, a few park pics:
First in the park! No hacky editing required today ;-).
This is the ledge on the MS porch (216 Main Street, if you can't find it ;-)). I noticed that it's angled slightly which makes it less easy to balance drinks on it. Tea in particular ;
We now have a fully-functional SWL. Despite appearances ;-).
I tried to capture this sunbeam but it didn't work out as well as I'd hoped.
