I decided this morning we would rope drop Cars Land but not RSR. We were very happy with the decision. The RSR line was so long, so fast. Lightning was sitting there with a photopass photographer, and we were the first to approach. After seeing us get some pics a few other families finally started a queue.
From there we walked onto Luigi. It’s very cute, but we’ve always had long lines in the past. Felt great to knock it out immediately. Then stopped at Mater before heading to Pixar Pier.
On the bridge we saw another photo pass photographer with no one to take pictures of, so we got some family pics. Again a queue formed behind us. This happened a couple more times later in the morning. It feels like people don’t recognize what that cast member is there for unless they’re actively taking photos.
Immediate walk on for TSMM, Pal Around, and Emotional Whirlwind. We also were all very excited to see Sully and get pictures with him.
We wanted to ride Soarin twice today, so we suffered through our first queue of the day there. Maybe 20 minutes. Then it was time to use LLs in Avengers Campus.
But first a visit to Trolley Treats, since we all were admiring their windows prior to rope drop. DS picked the dark chocolate covered strawberries.
LL start times for Web and Guardians were only separated by ten minutes. I made the mistake of using the earlier one (Web) first, which meant we couldn’t select a new LL until they were both used. It didn’t end up mattering though.
While we were there DS was very happy we caught three of the Avenger shows. We then backtracked to IC to use that LL before lunch at Carthay Circle Lounge.
It’s an easy reservation to get but this is probably our favorite restaurant in all of DL. Not cheap (or large portions), just very tasty. Same goes for the cocktails. And as luck would have if we were at the exact same table as last time, which allows DS to watch for characters going on and off stage.
After lunch we caught the Candy Cane trolley bus back for a nice nap…
