Dear Florida, We love you and have visited many times but I must say that even though we did have fun the heat was intense (mid 90's with indexes in the 109-113 range), the humidity exhausting and the crowds..ok, we didn't let the crowds bother us We will not be back for the summer months since we now know what frozen things do in summer!
Our first SWW was wonderful and we owe it to Yuilin and her awesome thread! We loved the Sci-Fi bfast, and the Rebel Hanger, but will not be doing Jedi Mickey at H&V again. Thought that one was overpriced and underwhelming. We loved the shows with Frank Oz and Ray Parks, got autographs with Chewbacca and DD was able to get Luke and Leia's autographs on her lightsaber. We are casual fans and had a wonderful time at SWW. Get the Alderaan with a double shot
We had preopening reservations for BOG bfast and were basically just trying to get in front of the crowds. We preordered our food which we though looked great ( open faced egg sandwich, eggs Florentine, the cro-nut thing) and we thought the food was wonderful, the opening staff fun and the restaurant beautiful. I think people cheaping out by not ordering food to get in the park early suck and hope they don't ruin the chance to get the experience for others. With that said we were first in line to meet A&E that morning and we enjoyed the entire experience.
Frozen Summer fun was cute we saw the parade (1.5 hour wait for a good spot in the shade) really liked the Sing along and thought the story tellers were a hoot. Also got to draw Elsa at the Academy and we love those free and personal souven"ears".
As first time FP+ people we have to say that we liked them! The heat was just killer for us and we found ourselves doing a few things in the morning without FP+ and then heading back in the evenings with our passes and doing them then. The crowds were in the 7-9 range most of the time and we might have ridden a few less things but we were so hot we didn't even care. We give 2 thumbs up for the Wishes FP! We have fought that crowd many times and were happy to not have to this time.
Last random thoughts. We had a wonderful time, staff and people we met were mostly awesome. Only a few grumpy faces over 10 days but given the heat and crowds not an issue at all. Bathrooms were clean everywhere we went, loved the new Hamarabe Market place, the food we had we liked and thought it was well priced except for H&V Mickey dinner and Olivia's lunch, meet more rude Brazilian line cutters than rude staff, saw more bottom biscuits than we cared to, I'm kind of over Epcot it is getting SO boring to me, Animal Kingdom updates look like they will be fun when it gets done, liked the new MK central area, YeHaa Bob show was an unexpected pleasure and we will be doing that again.
