Space Mountain just broke down. Undetermined when they'll start up again. 40 min wait was closer ti 50 and we weren't even in yet. :(
If it's closed, you should mark it as such on the wait time list. I noticed it's marked at 45 mins at ~1:16p. - SergZak3125.8 #14 6-18-12 1:19PMLike Reply
You could wait for it re open too. Its very possible that people will leave which gets you close to the front of line. - vincentchase645.9 #172 6-18-12 1:20PMLike Reply
Taking 3 boys, 14, 10 & 7. I haven't been since 2001. Anything new we want to make sure they don't miss?
Fantasmic! Bring a blanket to sit on and get their early so you can sit in the lower section. Everyone has to stay seated in that section so you won't have visibility problems :) They'll love it! - MayBie1864.3 #42 6-18-12 1:38AMLike(1) Reply
Yay.... 5 hours til we leave for DL! (I really should be asleep.) Anybody know the times for "The Sword in the Stone"? We really don't want to miss it!
My kids had a friend tell them about pin trading, and now they want to try. I have less than a week to figure out what to do and where to start. Tips and ideas would be greatly appreciated!!
What day are you coming to the park? I have a few extra pins they could have to get then started, but I will only be there from Sat-Tues - PrincessKristin776.9 #125 6-7-12 8:10AMLike(4) Reply
I *heart* PK. You're so nice! - LaneSparrow316 846.9 #110 6-7-12 9:30AM
Tip number 1 - when you buy your "starter" pins to trade through the parks for other pins, make sure you buy pins that you (and your kids) don't really like! Because otherwise they won't want to trade them away, and you'll end up having to spend more money on pins that they are willing to give up. lol - jmgphx323.0 #524 6-7-12 9:10AMLike(2) Reply
If you're in the park, I'll be glad to explain everything to you. Most of what I've learned about pin trading is either from other MWers and working in the park. - BaseballMickey_CM2993.9 #15 6-12-12 2:34PMLike Reply
We will be in DL on Mon - LilMom 5.8 #9539 6-16-12 11:20PM
As a kid I liked the starter kits. You can trade the ones you don't like from there :) - Raeofsunshine10.6 #6704 6-12-12 4:17PMLike Reply
SUPER EXCITED ... 1st time back to DL in 10 yrs. Never been to DCA. The plan is big kids first day at DL. 2nd day DCA with baby and Grandma. 3rd day back to DL with everyone. Any recommendations? Also, can we take some of our own snacks?
Of course you can! Bringing your own snacks saves you money and keeps your hunger down while in line I suggest you do an adult dinner at Blue Bayou because it is an amazing experience although a bit expensive and for the whole family I suggest Pizza Port delicious pasta!!! - Disneyrockstar124.3 #2709 5-31-12 9:02AMLike(1) Reply
Hi and welcome! You can bring snacks. My only suggestion is to see as many shows/parades as possible. Fantasmic, fireworks and soundsational parade in DL & world of color in DCA. Everyone will enjoy these. - VeloMouseGirl549.7 #210 5-31-12 9:04AMLike(1) Reply
