Originally Posted By nbodyhome I enjoyed it too! I get asked a lot for photos when I have my tripod with me.

She thought I was Photopass, and she stood so very still as I waited for the camera to finish . It's a cute pic, I just can't post it!

Most wait times at rides without FP were anywhere from 25 mins to 45 mins. Those rides with FP had stand by waittimes posted at around 70-90 mins. We only waited about 10 mins to ride the monorail back to TTC after the midnight fireworks. It was that comfortable. >>Oh, we should also note that all the entertainment you saw was really just for Christmas week. << I am/was very much awared of that. This is not TDL you know.. However, for once, I felt the amount of entertainment matched the price of the 1-day admission into the MK. They outdid themselves and deserved the kudos from me. Sadly, I know things will get back to MK-standards after this weekend.

They clearly, even here, even now, are capable of doing what they always used to -- exceed guests expectations. It just would be nice if they did it for more than one week a year.
