So suddenly it's been well over a month since I updated, AND we are in a new year! Not sure how that happened, but this thing has been going on for almost a year now, so it's time to finish it up!!!
Day 7 Continued: Friday February 28th
Forever ago when I last updated, we had left MK for the last time on this trip after getting DD's first haircut, and were heading to our last park of the visit, Hollywood Studios! When we arrived there, DS decided he wanted to carry DH’s camera bag into the park.

The park was noticeably busy, but we had what we felt was a solid plan, so we felt okay. We went over to the Frozen Singalong first because it was around noon and there was a show coming up at 12:30 pm. We had to wait a bit in the standby line, and the kids had fun taking photos of each other.

We didn’t have any trouble getting in to the theater, and we took seats near the front but off to the side. DD was really excited about this, because the only thing she likes more than Frozen is singing along to songs from Frozen without abandon!

I had meant to check Instagram to see if the well known historian Ben would be working that day, but I totally forgot. We lucked out though, that we had stumbled into one of his shows!

He and his co-host were incredibly funny, and made the show very enjoyable as expected! At the party scene, he started singing Baby Shark, and when it was time to sing Let It Go, he shouted, “This is for you, DADS!”
DD had control of our smaller camera that DS had been using, and she went more than a little nuts taking photos during this show. I definitely will not bore you with posting them all, but will share DH’s instead. Lol

It was a fantastic show for my Frozen-loving little girl!! She absolutely had a blast, and DS didn’t protest too much, so it was great for all.
We were very jealous of all the CMs getting to experience Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway! The façade looked pretty cool though.

Then it was the time we had all been waiting for…time to head to Toy Story Land and ride Slinky Dog Dash with our FPs! This had been our #1 priority when booking FPs, so we had strategized as best we could by starting with our last day and moving forward, and we had no issues getting the day & time we wanted. I had also checked Touring Plans, which had a great afternoon touring plan for DHS that we planned to loosely follow for the afternoon, plus we still had the 3 FPs we had been given for taking the DVC tour burning holes in our pockets.

Unfortunately, we made it all the way over there to find out the ride was down, and our FP had been converted to a Multiple Experience one. Do I sound like a broken record yet?! We did run into another family from DS’s school, so we stopped to talk to them for a little while. They were in the same boat, but were leaving the park soon so they were hanging out outside of the ride hoping it would come back up soon so they could ride before leaving.
