Everyone still looks so happy considering how long they’ve been away from home! Hooray!

I am at peace with the future, but I will miss this ride.

It is a heck of a ride. Like you, I am going to miss it.

Rode Magic Carpets and Haunted Mansion. DW took DD2 on the carousel. Now it’s time for Sleepy Hollow lunch! Last time worked great so we did the same thing.

Nice snag of the table x2!

I want that for lunch.

What a moody sky!

I got the chicken waffle without Cole slaw since I don’t like it. It was great. :slight_smile:

Another cavalcade came by - the Goofy and Max.

Ds15 is Benjamin. When my FIL & StepMIL met him for the first time FIL called him Benji. I shut it down immediately. Told him that he could call him Ben, Benny, or Benjamin …but not Benji.

FIL said, well you can’t control what other’s call him and I said we definitely could control that and would. He then countered with other kids in school calling him Benji and us having no say in it. I shared that he would be old enough at that point to correct anyone who didn’t say his name as he wanted to.

At this point, dear sweet StepMIL stepped in and told FIL that he would call his grandson by the correct name or answer to her. :rofl:

FIL never called him Benji again!

The railroad is what ds and I did when dd and dh were riding Splash and BTMRR. It was one of his favorite things as a toddler/pre-schooler.

Confirmed. Spotted them in the Poly gift shop this morning while waiting for our MO. (I’ll need to try one at some point, but not a whole box…yet, anyway!)

Little DD2 was doing so well with her chocolate milk. I would constantly tell her “hold it with two hands and don’t tip it!” (She had a straw.) Then at the very end of lunch, she was getting down to the end of the chocolate milk. I turned away to throw away the trash. Then I felt a splash at my feet. She had tipped it trying to get it up the straw. :joy::joy::joy: Chocolate milk all over her shirt and skirt. Oh well - it will dry pretty fast out here!

Posted wait is 60 min, TP says 40 min expected. I like this ride, but not enough to wait 60 min. We are doing it mostly since it’s a favorite of DW’s.

Big Thunder Mountain has been down all morning. Did I miss something? The refurb isn’t until June 7th -12th right?

We always seem to wait longer than the posted time there, good luck!

The MO has a customization option to delete the slaw or have it on the side.

At least we are under the shade now! It was super hot in the sun for a bit. I wouldn’t mind waiting now.

Sorry I missed this question! @amvanhoose_701479 is correct. Most mobile order items have the option to modify the toppings and sides.

We could have sat there for Snack #2 on Monday but it was mostly in the sun and the family vetoed the idea. :disappointed:
