Our First trip since May 2013

-Magic bands are awesome!
-Fast Pass plus was not as bad as I thought it would be
-4th FP is a mythical creature for rides(We did get Illuminations, Wishes, and late Fantasmic)
-FP's for fireworks are not a waste especially if you don't want to camp out at Canada
-FP return lines look longer than they are
- Excessive PDA, crude tee shirts and public intoxication is always gross but there is way more of it during Gay days.
-We only ran into one grumpy gills cast member
- Kilamajaro Safari is awesome just after an afternoon rain
-Memory Maker was great for us
-There are no direct resort buses from TL after 2:00, you have to transfer at Epcot
-Lines are not bad in the morning
-Getting Noobs to taste Beverly never gets old
-There is WiFi in the parks!
-MDE is a great tool
-Beach Club is the best location for us
-Garage at DTD is really nice
-Toy Story stand by line is a great place to play I spy
-Adult children are not grateful enough to let you win at TSM
-Hollywood looks cool without the hat
-There seems to be more food choices for QS meals
-I miss Captain EO. CM told me it would be back in July

I can't wait to go back in December! 188 days!

Great report. Thanks.

Looking forward to seeing the Studios without the hat again. Love the view while walking along Hollywood Blvd.

Love your comment re the Beverly. Last year I convinced my adult nephew it was delicious and he had to try it. His reaction was priceless. LOL
