Day Trip Trip Report

It feels like forever since we've been to WDW (it will be 75 days come Tuesday- I know, boo hoo me) and I am so excited to head back in a few days! I managed to pound the app and land Slinky Dog.

So far someone is not on board with one of us (rhymes with Toe) causing a distraction at the entrance to Gakaxy's Edge while the other (rhymes with.....er.....Meff...) rushes into the land. Hmph.

I also got my new $10 Magic Band! Let's hope the Florida rains stay away for these 2 hours. Or at least long enough to get in Slinky Dog.

Mission accomplished! We took a risk with the weather but we got in Slinky Dog and a walk around before a short 15 minute down pour. That gave me time to buy a new cauldron mug before we hit up Rock n Roller Coaster. Done raining by the time we were done with that.

It was busy for sure but the new bag check went fast. I did not have to empty my pockets!

The entrance to Galaxy's Edge looks cool. Joe opted out of my plan for distraction while I snuck through the bushes.

They had plenty of the Alien popcorn buckets. I was tempted but held off for a lion king one in a few weeks, I hope.

It felt good to be back

That tarp tho! Keepin' it classy.

When you rent these scooters they tell you not to have them in the rain, but it's the control panels on the steering column that need to be kept dry. This is so funny! I actually have a waterproof cover made for big backpacks that I take with me to use in case of rain.
